[@creightonc8147]

I never say Simms geek out on a QB like that, and one thing is for sure, Caleb loves football, he gets deep into it. He knows other QB’s bases and grips. Omg, I wonder if he will be a coach one day. I saw him in an interview once, he loves to draw up his own plays and game plan ideas. Waldron is gonna love him.

[@VvVT734]

People are not getting this man this ain’t because he live the game he has been pushed in coached into this. He is one of the kids that have been trained to be a QB nothing else. That’s what we’ve gotta understand here. He is trained for this he’s not one of the guys who just played sports and because he was so great people gravitated towards him or wanted to hear him talk. He is one of the newer farm raised QBs who had specialized training for this time. Don’t get it confused I think he will be good but he has a lot of bad habits on tape and has so much hype around him being compared to a 3 time superbowl champ and stuff.

[@BillPlain1]

Williams is #1 with a bullet, to Chicago, and that is all there is too it. I think Daniels [due to injury], and Mayes [due to inability] will both flame out as NFL QB prospects. Frankly, I think only Penix Jr. and Williams make it as a starter for many years to come. The rest will have varying degrees of Mark Sanchez type success, without the stellar defense.
