    Interesting conversation. JMO, I don't think Cord is an SEC starting caliber QB. He doesn't seem to have a big enough arm. Lots of his throws seem to float..

    Perhaps, but I’d be surprised to see a highly rated HS QB who opted to play Pro BB “float” the ball a lot. Could be, but I just doubt it.  Would think the failure mode would most likely be quick/quality decision-making, as is the case with many QB’s.

    I don't know why we'd offer a QB that hasn't played football in five years. Unless the coaches don't feel as good about the current situation as the fans feel, we don't have a need for this guy.

    I recall the coaches recruited Cord quite aggressively out of HS and I’m sure they have a good feel for what he can do. And while there may be some physical “rust” to knock off, the additional 2-3 years of mental maturity should more than offset that potential handicap.

    At 5’ 7”, Worm is still comparable. This is an awful metric but Grant at 205 gives him a 2.9 Lb/inch density. Worm at 180lbs would give him a 2.7 Lb/inch density. A 6’ 2” 225lb back would have a 3.0 Lb/inch density. 

     

    FWIW, Kam Martin at 195 gives him a 2.8lb/inch density so I think we’re okay!

    A reasonable way to look at it. Not worries here about weight (or the lack thereof).  More about strength, toughness and knowing how to leverage the weight he has (assuming he can keep the ball Off the ground).

    I’m encouraged by what I’ve seen and wish him well as he establishes his own personal brand in the backfield.
