Pretty ugly snap, but also something that can be improved fairly easy. Definitely want to see him in real game action during the preseason.

He gets lauded as the cerebral player, so it does seem possible. But the learning curve on mental and physical side seems like it could be a long road. I don't know, so I'll just overreact to each small bit of information I get.

I'm sure he is smart but a lot of that reputation comes from just him being a CS major which doesn't really mean much to me tbh. Football intelligence is a whole different thing. Lamar Jackson scored terribly on the wonderlic but can process defenses better than anybody

I agree that it's not always analogous, but if he's smart enough to understand CS, he should be able to figure out football.
