Fields reminds me of a stronger arm/faster version of Dak. Make of that what you will.

Fields actually reminds me of former UCLA QB Brett Hundley. Before his final year in college, Hundley had lots of hype as a projected 1st round QB. Obviously he fell in the draft that year and never amounted to much in the NFL but in terms of physical traits, Brett Hundley is the guy Fields reminds me of the most.

There are about three differences between Hundley and Fields
Clear differences
1. Hundley is built like an athletic QB, Fields is built like an undersized TE. Fields' athletic ability is more functional like Dak.
2. Fields is a 4.55 laser guy and Hundley is a 4.62-4.65 laser guy and it shows on the field.
Massive differences
3. Fields has functional arm strength. He can put RPMs on it, spin it, throw it with touch, and understands when to make certain passes. Hundley was a one-speed passer. He really didn't mix it up ever.

I do worry about both prospects and their pocket presence. Both get sacked a lot and that's something that standout about both players. That said, the Dak comparisons might be the best. Fields is a superior runner to Hundley with a superior football frame. Not the biggest Dak guy but Fields is known to be a leader in the locker room and one of the hardest workers like Dak.

@Dr. Narcisse, Dak statistically might be the best comparison. I will say that Justin is a lot more polished than Dak was at this stage as a QB. You can tell Justin been extremely well-coached thus far. Both him and Sunshine.

I agree with Klatt about Fields improvement during the season. He was a much better QB in the 2nd half of the season.

I think Lawrence and Fields will be the truth and worth being drafted as high as they will end up be. I don't really know enough about the other QB's to form an opinion if they will be good pros or not.

I don't think King should be mentioned with the top guys. He seems like a middle of the pack pick to me and a project.

My problem with Fields is that he should be way more dominant running. Watson put up 1000 yards in college and he's not as athletically gifted as Fields.

At Georgia it seemed like his athleticism showed up more in his limited snaps. Seemed more fluid.

His release is slow too. Unlike Dak having the great Cowboys oline it worries me about Fields if he goes to a bad team.

I had hoped the Raiders were bad so he could go there. They do have a good oline.

- Lance throwing motion is like McNair, damn, I love Lance. I am sure you would being a Titans fan. He should be going #1 if things were you know, not based on having a spotlight on you which Sunshine has had since he was in 7th grade.

- I am surprised you don't like TL more honestly. He's a lot like Josh Allen but much better as a prospect. I see your point on him compared to Luck but Luck was a monster. I honestly think he carried Indy a lot during his time but like Luck, TL will be hurt if he keeps this playing style.

- You are not the first person to say that about Fields. His tape is nowhere near as impressive as his talent, athletic ability for his size, and his arm. I actually think he reminds me most of McNabb. Lance is more like McNair with crazy scheme versatility and decision making skills.

- You know, I can see the Kaep comparison but Kaep last year at Nevada was consistent, I need to see that from Mond this year.

- How do you like D'eriq King? I noticed you were high on Kyler in 2019 which is a prospect I was high on as well going into 2019 and during the draft and I was pushing that he was the top QB prospect that season over Jones and Haskins.

Very spot on review of Lance...i think with the right OC/HC...he can be a star. He throws well on the move...has good athleticism...i would like to see how he reacts in the pocket with bodies around him. The one thing I dont like, breh takes on safeties and LB when he runs.....the same dumb shyt Wentz did...he needs to stop that asap but i really like his chances in the NFL

They do that caused they can in the Missouri Valley but if he was in the SEC/ACC, he wouldn't be doing that and he really shouldn't do in the NFL.

Damn mad overhyped.

Tlaw is looking like he’s gonna be a Matt Stafford type of QB more so than a generational Peyton manning best in the league dude

Zach Wilson literally can’t play

Trey Lance can’t play and his team literally gave up on him already

Mac jones is average at best

Justin fields sucks
