My cousin is well off, but doesn’t help me any, nor does it hurt me. I am not getting any of their money.

Terrible take on Zach Wilson. Def a hit piece from a competing qb agents firm (or a Ute), because none of what he says

I don't think NFL teams care what some guy is blabbing on the web. They will

I read what he wrote and wondered if he really watched the same Zach Wison I did

I like this line a lot. A+ writing.

I didn’t make it that far. He surfed twitter for 15 and wrote a blog. The end.

Sentences are the most powerful form of rhetorical question.

Because that should tell you...this is a kid that's gonna take you places?

SinkingQuffa

Go ahead and show the next sentence tho, which is the question he was referring to.

Virginia Ute

3/7/21 8:21am

Nah. He doesn’t phrase it that way. It gives better context but the writing is equally horrible.

MarkWatney

3/7/21 8:23am

Oh dang I stand corrected.

Virginia Ute

3/7/21 8:32am

Yeah, the run-on sentence that immediately follows is not a question either. Pretty bad.

He lost me within the first ten words “polished and erratic athletic...”

BlackBart

3/7/21 7:42am

Next best line: Gives off a quirky vibe and energy. That's an awesome analysis!

Is that satire?

cougfanblue

3/7/21 7:46am

He writes for SI Detroit. Have mercy on his soul.

BlackBart

3/7/21 7:49am

Apparently this guy is the host of the first Christ centered NFL pregame show...

Charles Darwin

3/7/21 7:49am

Which is funny, because I was about to suggest that he needed to find Jesus.

3/7/21 8:25am

This part was just ridiculous

mwcoug

3/7/21 7:52am

The whole thing was ridiculous. He got literally everything wrong. Good entertainment.

Pimpin4Paradise

3/7/21 8:01am

Pretty obvious why he's a "former" scout

mwcoug

3/7/21 8:03am

Or the reason former is the adjective for his career in talent prognostication.

Q-grr

3/7/21 8:17am

He didn’t even list the best one.

cougfanblue

3/7/21 8:15am

Has to be a Ute fan if BYU's top 10 QBs were "extremely average"

ochobeeguy

3/7/21 8:49am

And he conveniently left out McMahon & M Wilson from his list of the "mediocre"

lbmango

Both played in the Super bowl

He actually is a subject matter expert on drafting QB busts as a scout for the

Blueto

3/7/21 7:52am

There’s a reason why he’s a former scout and not a current one

ldssdl

3/7/21 7:59am

He's trolling. He also bashed Trevor Lawrence. This way if either doesn't pan

Archaea

3/7/21 8:28am

If that's his pic in the image I'm laughing. Jets hat says all I need to know about him - no wonder the Jets have been

unctoothman

3/7/21 8:48am

I guess there is a reason he is a former NFL scout

ALC

3/7/21 8:54am

Did he watch his own embedded highlights? I see none of what he was criticizing

thegoodmeister

3/7/21 8:59am

My thoughts exactly!!

RICoug

3/7/21 10:35am

I'll choose to listen to Greg Cosell. There's a reason this dude is an ex-scout

Forzaitalia

3/7/21 9:07am

He apparently didn’t say what he said...and airlines make revenue so ZW is rich

BlackBart

3/7/21 9:08am

He's a former scout for the Jets, that is NOT a stellar endorsement of his

cougar95

3/7/21 9:08am

His sentence about trying to make up for lack of arm strength tells you he’s a fraud. If there is something he

Rhino84

3/7/21 9:18am

Emphasis on “former” NFL scout.

Ned Schneebly

3/7/21 9:33am

And I thought Grant Cohn’s take on Zach was bad.

Seasider

3/7/21 9:39am

There's obviously a spectrum of reasonable thought; this isn't on it

krindorr

3/7/21 9:46am

Funny how the guy is a former nfl scout. Must not have been very good at his job

Tuskaloosa Cougar

3/7/21 10:23am

I'm thinking he mixed up his film, and watched Kentucky quarterback Terry Wilson

BYU28_Miami21

3/7/21 10:29am

I read the whole thing to see where he’d say Zach would be 4th string at the U.

GrumpyCougar

3/7/21 11:06am

I do worry a bit about Zach and INTs in the NFL...

lbmango

3/7/21 11:15am

I learned from the article that a college and NFL football are not the same size

germ1

3/7/21 11:55am

I had never heard that either...

lbmango

3/7/21 12:23pm

Awful writer - does he even know what he is trying to say?

Doi_Percent

3/7/21 12:53pm

Conclusion - Take in 3rd round. Also, don't draft him at all.

Doi_Percent

3/7/21 1:01pm

Interesting line in an article about that "scout"

Sir_Ten

3/7/21 1:55pm

Actually what is more telling imo is the fact he is now an Evangelical Christian

DJROSS

3/7/21 3:00pm

His take on how to beat him at the end is great. Also, pretty sure thats the recipe for every single QB in the league

RoaroftheCougartails

3/7/21 1:58pm

If those involved were trying to prove how little they know about Zach & Football, they were epically successful

slatecoug

3/7/21 3:45pm

BTW, how is a QB "Polished" and "Erratic" at the same time?

slatecoug

3/7/21 3:47pm

ha ha ha, everyone has the right to their opinion, even if wrong.
