I don't think they've been very impressed with the QBs so far this week or at least they weren't yesterday.

 

[00Dawg]

Dak went from getting a bunch of praise on Tuesday to nothing on Wednesday, and Finebaum's guest was knocking his accuracy.
I watched the evening coverage on the NFL network, and they didn't show any 11-on-11 work either day. I will say the QB passes for the South team in 1-on-1 WR/DB drills were horrible. However, it looked like coverage was dictated to the DB, and the receivers were supposed to adjust appropriately. Since the DB knew that, they were jumping routes all over the place. The passes they didn't break up/pick-off were usually missed, too, since the QBs and receivers have had almost no time to build a rapport.

VSporto has a new NFL Draft podcast, here's an interview with Dak from that.

 

[57stratdawg]

Yeah his accuracy keeps coming up as the knock.

 

[KurtRambis4]

Interesting.

He says that he and Mullen agreed upon him not running the ball as much this year.

I seem to recall hypothesizing about this earlier in the year, and people were saying he wasn't running as much because he couldn't (which of course was stupid).

 

[RocketDawg]

I'm not surprised. And I think the reason was to lower the risk of injury. I'm OK with that ... he did fine with mostly passing. And he avoided getting hurt and potentially ruining his career.

Dak needs to take off that damn white helmet.

I asked my friend who is evaluating down there how dak was looking as of yesterday. He said "honestly, not that good today. this week is tough on qb's working with different receivers and the timing is off. Dak doesn't compare to the ND State qb, who is really good and head and shoulders above all the other qbs there."

 

[57stratdawg]

I think that convo went something

"Dan, this season is going to be about me from the pocket or I'm going pro"

"Sounds good to me"

 

[KurtRambis4]

I imagine

it was mutually agreed upon and discussed.

 

[was21]

Maybe so but he better be damn glad he didn't.

 

[mcdawg22]

Hell we played against 4 of them.

Couple of nice quotes on Dak today

Mike Maycock, NFL Network Analyst on Dak Prescott: "If you're gonna bet on a young man, that's the kinda kid I want to bet on."

Sterling Shepard (OU receiver): Dak (Prescott) throws a great deep ball. Coker has been able to throw some nice ones as well

I watched a little on tv yesterday and that is how I saw it.
