I'm not sold on Caleb, but if winning the Heisman is an underachievememt then he's got one helluva ceiling.

Caleb is an overrated, soft, crybaby. He’s basically Dollar Tree Mahomes.Am I wrong?
I don’t see a generational talent imo he’s not much better than Justin if at all.
He underachieved at USC would you agree?

Some of these mock drafts got us taken Jayden Daniels, I ain't watch any LSU games this year. Don't know what his ceiling is.

Daniels stock has skyrocketed since mid season. I’ve liked what I’ve seen from him.

Was his Heisman revoked? It sounds like your personal feelings about him is driving your opinion. USC underperformed as a whole, but I thought it was pretty clear as to why and it certainly wasn't Caleb.

Cause he didn’t perform like they expected this season. Against real competition he looked like a ok QB not some generational talent that y’all making him out to be. I don’t care what hat he does against trash teams etc

How else was it supposed to turn out with a defense ranked #117th in the country?And how did that turn out the very next season?
That arm talent is more than NFL ready

What QB is a better prospect?

Kellen Winslow and Vernon Davis both went #6 in their drafts. They were both better/equal prospects.
Athletically they both were more gifted than Pitts. TJ Hockenson went like 8th. I don’t understand taking a TE that high either

Caleb had no defense and his playmaker was in and out of the lineup
Jerry Rice son had drop issues and I don’t know what the running game did all season

Would be smart trading down to stack more draft assets or pieces and building a solid group of talent around him but who knows what to expect under a new regime.
Like someone mentioned earlier, a new QB would buy them more time but I think Fields showed enough down the stretch after coming back from injury to justify putting more importance on other positions of need.

Not as hung up over the draft order as I was initially though, this looks like one of the deeper QB classes in the last few years. Even if the pick ends up at something like no.5, still think you can end up with a Penix or Daniels there.

Under achieved? He won a Heisman. Bryce Young just went 1st and was considered generational (which I disagree with) and Caleb is much better IMO.
Caleb would’ve even went 1st overall over Bryce last year if he were draft eligible

Caleb has the nastiest arm coming out of college since Mahomes and he's about the same build but a more mobile player.
Any question marks about him shouldn't be with regards to on field stuff.
Between the ears maybe but even then, you don't really hear about attitude problems or anything like that. I don't think not liking to lose is a poor trait either necessarily

I felt the same way about Bryce last year
Point is Caleb won’t do any better than Justin or Trubisky in Chicago and after 3-4 years will be in the same position. So why waste a #1 pick on him?

And he’s ALWAYS looking to throw the ball. Justin Fields always was looking to run after things broke down.
Man, ain’t no receiver trying to play long term with a running QB. The only outlier is Lamar Jackson.
Receivers want to play with guys like Mahomes, Stafford, Russ, Herbert, etc. QBs who can make all the throws and buy time in the pocket while still looking to throw.

DJ Moore is getting like 10 targets a game and making a gigantic difference.
Giving up on a dude because he’s basically had no weapons til now seems dumb.
