Ya, I can see that. But Allen was so much bigger, so much more accurate, and most of all a million times better at running the ball. His measurable and stats and film just screamed potential and you saw him prove it somewhat in college. Levis just didn't. Even his better junior year was below average. They can say he played in a pro style offense, so he wasn't going to put up yards. OK, how about the horrible TD/INT ratio? And 66% completion?

It's just baffling to me that stats don't matter for him. Gabbart is a really good analogue, all about the combine and literally nothing else.

I’m certainly not saying Levis is as good as Allen coming out of college from an on the field performance stand point, but the comp is dead on from a measurable stand point. Their combine results and body comps were identical. Scouts see this and are getting excited and so their ignoring the on field results and making excuses for him. Some GM will be fired for drafting him high.

For sure, but have to remember Allen had a lot of rough edges coming out of college too. Maybe not quite as rough as Levis, but Allen still didn’t set the world on fire his rookie year. More INT than TDs. Next year was a good bit better, third year was breaking out.

That’s the progression scouts think Levis can go too but Allen is the exception not the rule.

And as we all know, Levis is, well, Levis…

Can we talk more about @MetalVolunteer saying the next two weeks are gonna be good for us?

VQ guys suggested they didn’t see anything on the horizon during a recent chat.

I absolutely trust MV… but I’m wondering what we should be expecting? I got my popcorn ready

Edit: my guess is Peyton Lewis
