True. However, that's where I see Lamar at present. Don't believe in his long term success.

It wouldn’t shock me to see him flame out. We’ll get a pretty good idea next season if his game will hold up or if defenses are starting to figure him out.

RGIII, Tim Tebow, same type, IMO. However, Lamar is definitely a freak as an athlete, and may do better. Going to be a fun ride w/ this young man.

Jackson would compare more favorably to Michael Vick but there is an RG3 comparison as well.

No, he didn't.

Jackson is not close to being a good passer yet. He's just a guy w/ a great arm, but not an NFL quality passer yet.
Are you attempting to dispute something I said? I ask because I don't see it.

I do I think we need to draft him around the 4th, if for nothing else to be a Taysom Hill type and learn to be Daks backup...if dak doesnt stay much longer he maybe a poor mans lamar Jackson IF a STAFF is smart enough to call plays for him..its combine week, so yes its valid..Hes a better upside then RUSH!
Well, there is always one dim bulb in the bunch. That's you. You are responding to something said 4 days ago. I've moved on since then am no longer responding to this thread.

Kapernick is out there.

You falled to mention him.

And frankly he would the ideal fit for us.

Extremely affordable, hungry and multi-dimension-able.

While all this Dak Drama is going on..

I would sign Kap, let Rush and White go..

then let Dak sit and move on.

Dak will one of two things..

Either **** up and sign an agreement that is reasonable for both sides..

Or he will get ticked off and demand he wants out.

Frankly, even if Dak comes to his senses, I would want Kap as the backup.
If Dak goes down we would still have a chance.

Kapernick?? :rolleyes:

Oh, I know, but for anyone to insist that Dak is not a dual threat QB based solely on his 4 year old combine 40 yd dash time is plain dumb. Dak has proven he can be a weapon both with his arm and legs. Hello, Earth to you ignorants...

You can think as you want but stating stats that are not true that even you know isn't true doesn't help your case.

LOL, anybody can cherry-pick plays and make a highlight reel of any player and make them look like something they are not. Dak is not a pocket passer and after he gets paid, Mike McCarthy is going to have a whole new conservative playbook to make sure he's not a "run-first" guy.

I have so many ground balls videos to Zeek it's sick

Dak is a dual-threat QB. That is a fact that other NFL coaches prepare for. The only one in denial are posters like you.

Steve Young did fine. Russell Wilson is doing better.

Just don't run stupid. Dak is a *thick* QB. 6-2, 238, and not a chubby 238 either. He's built like a LB. If we don't run him, we're wasting him.

Oh yes....agreed. How many times did I yell..."take off, it's wide open out there!". Run smart. Dak was doing the at first, then seemed to abandon it, like very intentional. Maddening.

I was really talking more along the lines of Lamar Jackson running. I think one of these times he's gonna get whacked.

There's no doubt Dak CAN move the ball with his legs. But in order to be an effective threat, you actually have to do it, more than just once in awhile. Hopefully we can learn it back into him.

Agreed. I have a feeling Mike McCarthy will push for Dak to run more when it's there for an easy taking during games.

Combine time, 3 cone drill - he is on the very low end of the skill positions in these drills. Then you actually watch him play and see that he does not have any elusive skills and his feet are heavy. But you want to look at total yards run by him-that's like comparing Hambrick to Emmitt Smith.

He is not a threat - nobody spies on Dak like they do with true dual threat QB's

You seriously need to do some research before mouthing off such falsehoods. Don't be lazy. Google it. It's all over the internet of how opposing coaches and players admit to preparing for Dak as a dual-threat QB.

First at no time did I say or imply that Prescott is or is not a dual threat QB. The ONLY thing I have said on that is that the stats you originally used were wrong and then you admitted it after the fact that they were. I said that using stats that you knew were wrong when you used them didn't help your argument. By using stats that you knew were wrong makes people have reasons to question your conclusion about Prescott because they can say you base it on bad or wrong info.

What stats? His 4 year old combine 40 yard and 3 cone drill times??? It has not affected how Dak has been a dual-threat QB and how opposing teams have admitted to preparing for him as such over the years.

Yet, Dak has run for more yards and TDs than those you listed.

The first comment you claimed Prescott ran for more yards than the ones listed by alkemirv which included Lamar Jackson, Russell Wilson and Deshaun Watson.

The second comment you stated that you know that Prescott didn't rush for more yards than those.QB's

The third comment you then ask what stats when I told you that using stats that you knew at the time were wrong gives people reasons to question your conclusions because they can say your info is bad or wrong.

Now providing you with EXACTLY what YOU SAID should pretty much end this. Again at no time did I say or imply that I thought Prescott is or is not a dual threat QB.
