Brock took some hard hits. He probably injured his ribs on that play and kept playing. He seems durable to me, getting his arm hit at the right timing/angle was unfortunate, but he seemed durable as for as taking hits and playing through pain

I rewatched that Cowboys game and Kyle called a QB delay up the middle in the RZ and the second he saw a DL bearing down on him, he got low and in the fetal position. I liked that feel and response. Smart.

Brock is pretty good at knowing when to kill a play. For a rookie, he was very good. That's honestly where he reminded me of Brees the most, his ability to kill plays that weren't there and move on to the next down

Agreed. It's hard not to get excited about him.

His football IQ is high for a veteran, forget a rookie. He made numerous plays that was were incredible awareness for a rookie. It's partially why I'm not really concerned about the few bad plays he had that either were picked or should/could of been picked. As a whole, those were a minimal part of his overall game and he had quite a few plays that were awesome but don't really show up on the stat sheet.

He has a great mind for the game and overall awareness play wise. He strikes me as a player who will probably coach down the road.

I mean IQ's term that's recognized to begin with as non-improvable. A "natural instict" term so the vet and rookie thing shouldnt apply.

You're not serious, right?
Someone commented that he plays like an "old soul." No doubt most QBs seek to learn and improve their craft along the way. Brock seems to have taken that process to another level.
I think many are going to be disappointed next year. To expect a continous accention in his performance is not rational nor is it common place for a rookie never mind a 7th rounder. He is still a rookie that has not even completed a season of football coming off major surgery. I will be very surprised if he maintains or improves his skills over a 18 week season and playoff run.

Dang! I'm real disappointed to learn this. I'd always heard the biggest jump was in your sophomore year.

Since he doesn't have any real glaring limitations, and he's clearly a smart kid with a smart coach, I'm just gonna hope for the best.

Love the sarcasm. Just trying to be realistic. Saying he has no glaring limitation proves my point. A 7th rd rookie has limitations and teams will exploit them.

Hard and exited are definitely 2 things I am when thinking of BCB

My man
Last season was a wild ride. Purdy dramatically overachieved based on my expectations. Essentially I thought the season was over until he hit Kittle on the 3rd and 10 while getting smoked versus MIA. At that point, I was thinking, ok, maybe we have something. And then he continued to one-up himself over and over.

I remain skeptical that he can maintain that level of play with essentially no offseason, but I'm hoping to be proven wrong.

OK then. We're going on draft position to Prove NFL worth. Why then did Brady go in the 6th round? Montana in the 3rd? Yes, they had limitations you could point to, but it turns out the league GM's had the real limitations. As Brady said, you can't measure what's in your heart. As I say, you can't evaluate the quick mind that separates the good from the great in the NFL with only a college record. These guys did have weaknesses you could point to. But nobody saw what was Really needed. We've seen it in Brock. Sure, not enough, but it ain't a college record no more.

First overall draft picks include Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray, Jared Goff, Jamis Winston, Sam Bradford, Cam Newton, David Carr, Tim Couch, and wait for it, ... keep waiting, ok JaMarcus Russell. Are the league GM's looking at irrelevant things?

If the league had a do over, would Any of these draft positions change? Yeah, all of them. Would Brock go in the 7th? I know you can find someone to argue it would be the 2nd, throwing the credit elsewhere, but I think No Way he's not a 1st round pick. It doesn't take every team. Please don't go lower than a 2nd, because I don't think I could answer without using politically incorrect words.

Who was that great man that said the difference in the Great NFL quarterbacks is Always headwork. We now Know Brock has that. Yes, it needs to develop further, but we Know he has the ability, structure, team and coaching to make that happen.

Aside from That, Mrs. Lincoln, how'd you like the play?

Not saying he cant, justing saying that he may not lift off into space week 1 and be Montana. There is going to be lots of bumps in the road in his development.

Love the enthusiasm but mine is more tempered until I see more, especially after major surgery.

Usually those types of post draft projection are 3 years removed for a reason.
