I want whomever the coaches think is best. I’m skeptical that Ward can run this system in year 1, but I trust the coaches to pick someone who’s got the right stuff. If they think that’s Ward, it’s good by me.
To me Ward is a bigger version of Heaner. Heaner was known as a gunslinging turnover machine at Husky practices and DeBoer/Grubb wrangled him in and got him drafted. Like Heaner did at Fresno (Oregon, Hawaii, Boise), Ward will lose UW a game or two by a sloppy play with the ball but will win them a game or two they shouldn't (UCLA, almost Oregon) because of sheer brilliance in this system. With Rogers they better hope DJ comes back or that they can snag another war daddy to tote the rock (TWILTCI, TTR), because I'm not sure he can win games with his skills alone.
The intriguing thing about ward is his biggest weakness (ball security) could just be the result of a poor OL, in which case going to UW (who should bring back 4/5 starters I think?) could be an immediate fix for that.

Ward is intriguing. Cannon of an arm. Scrambles and is a playmaker.
Developed bad habits back pedaling which creates massive sacks and at times is throwing passes from 12 yards behind the line of scrimmage.
Also is not the brightest. Continually will run out of bounds a yard short of the 1st down marker instead of extending the ball which makes me question his football IQ.
His oline has been terrible and they have tried the bo nix approach of quick short passes. I think with a better oline he could break those habits and be pretty good.

The Miami qbs have been trash
PLUS some high caliber south beach poontang to boot?
I'd take a trip to Mario Land for sho.
Are there any other prospects that we could go after that look better options?
