Bridgewater, Geno, Kelly B, Francois,

Vick
Boyd
Jackson
Pat White

For as many studs as we've shut down in the past, many others have completely lit us up. I think we need to be very worried about Mr. Lawrence

Genuine question, how many of those were freshmen when they blew us out? Just Vick?

I honestly don't know but I think too much is being made about him being a true freshman. NFL scouts are ready to take this kid as a #1 if he was coming out. Dabo is going to keep it simple for him, quick hits, he gets the ball out fast. We won't pressure him alot.

That’s ridiculous. He’s a string bean. I wonder if he’s even ever been hit live by P5 defensive end.

I don’t think it’s being exaggerated yet. We have 3 very, very hard hitting d linemen and have the nations leader in picks. Another advantage, that hasnt been mentioned enough, is our special teams. It’s not unrealistic to say Lawrence should be expecting heavy pressure with mediocre field position for potentially a large part of the game.
 
Not played but actually hit? Was he sacked?

We’re coming after him
He was hit. I think he took a sack against Tech but I can't remember.

From 250-3:
"At halftime, I asked an NFL scout in attendance what he thought of Lawrence after seeing him in-person for the first time.

"No. 1 pick," he said. "Right now I'd take him No. 1."

Three of the fastest men to ever play quarterback, and Taj Boyd had just enough wiggle.

Our defenses have always tended to be better against pure pocket types (admittedly, i dont know how mobile Lawrence is).
 
Well that scout is an idiot.
Maybe so, but he's still an NFL scout, and he still said it. Lawrence will be the best freshman QB we've ever seen. Dilfer says he's better than a decent chunk of current NFL Qbs. Dilfer is also an idiot, I get it. But this is the overwhelming opinion.

I remember similar things being said about Barkley and other false prophets.





Having watched Lawrence I buy hes a first round talent already.
 
It will be interesting if they coddle him a little if the action gets to him a little bit. He had some moments against A&M where he did not look great. That said he has had lots of moments where he looks great. STill a young kid in what will hopefully be a tight game with no safety net.

Vick was a redshirt freshman. And what VT's defense did to us that night is criminal in most states.

Ken Dorsey was a true freshman who I recall lit us up. Ironically, it was that same season as Vick.
 
He was hit. I think he took a sack against Tech but I can't remember.

Uh oh...memory problems, gbo? Recent head trauma by any chance? We might have to take you off the board for a little bit until you have passed our concussion protocol! Some...have never returned...
 
This is a pocket passer. Further comparisons to Lamar Jackson, Boyd, Watson and Vick are useless.

If we can get to him without sacrificing coverage we have a shot. The kid is light, and that is the biggest factor for young QBs, not being able to adsorb contact. The arm talent is undeniable, but now with Bryant transferring Clemson really only has Lawrence. Apparently that is all they need though lol
