    Dick needs to grow..

    "I do think he needs more time taking snaps and live action in games to be prepared," the exec said. "I would like to see him return to college for another year."

    What a shitty article

    It sucks when NFL executives tell us what they think

    Where is all the this online hate of Eason that the guy is talking about? Consensus view seems to be that's he been pretty good at times, but made some mistakes and has room for improvement. Not anywhere near the Browning hate.

    I know this isn't favorable in the cognitive bias echo chamber but he lost the Utah game.
    He played a key role in the loss that's for sure. You could also say Tyler Huntley lit us up to.

    A fumble on his own twenty? A pick and a pick six.

    I like him.

    Eason isnt great. He is average with a big arm. He has made some dumb fucking decisions and has not willed the team to a single big win.

    I think he has a lot of potential, but at this point he would benefit tremendously from another year because if he plays similar to how he does now in the NFL he is going to be terrible.

    Ive also never seen a guy that big go down so easily. Watch some Big Ben film, Eason

    When did ridiculing a couple cherry-picked cro-mag comments on the internet start to pass for journalism?

    I'm just not seeing a big swell of negativity surrounding Eason. Which I think I'd notice, because I fucking love the guy. I will do cartwheels if Skinny returns for his senior year. But can we stop pretending there aren't 32 NFL GMs who'd kill or die to draft and develop a generational talent like his?

    Right now he is pretty average and I do think he’s soft. He should be a load to bring down despite not being mobile. He’s not.

    I think with a good coaching staff he could be really good. He’s kind of what he’s always been. A lot of potential but you want and expect a little more.
    Eye of the beholder, I guess. I fear Jacob Sirmon's performance against Michigan's defense in September will change your perspective on what "pretty average" looks like.

    I'll add, Roadie, that I agree with your take in another thread this a.m.:

    We don’t have anyone else. We need Eason badly for next year. I do think we could be very good next year, but only if he’s the QB. I’m not going to buy in or doog about Sirmon or Morris.

    I think coming back makes sense for both sides. Eason would be a top 2 round pick for sure right now. There is always a chance he goes really high because a QB needy team is desperate.

    He can get rid of the doubts and cement himself as a top 10 pick next year with a good season. These struggles right now might end up being a good thing.

    No, Sirmon will just be bad if he’s starting vs Michigan. I have no confidence in him. If you play horrible against good competition in high school, it’s not happening in college.
