But he wasn't in any of the videos that just showed the DL going through drills. In Day 4 or 5. I am sure that would include all DL. Day 4 even listed their names as it showed them and he wasn't there. Just thought it strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the video you're talking about where Franklin was absent during the QB drill. Rhett said he was working with the holders during that session.

WarEagle1983 2,185 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) Much like Lawson, Russell is very mature for his age. Good leader. Edited August 8, 2016 by WarEagle1983 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgufcm 4,107 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 DTR, he threw for over 250 yards against Ole Miss. That was pretty noteworthy. And, for clarity, I think he has a ways to go as a player, but I definitely think he has a higher ceiling than people imply. He was 19, and he was playing earlier than anyone expected him to be needed. Given the context of the season and his development, his numbers when healthy were pretty impressive.

Eagle Eye 7 2,535 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 If you have watched Gus coach even as a OC you will see his pet peeve if folks putting the ball on the ground, whether it be a RB or QB. You have seen over and over that he will start who he believes is not going to put the ball on the ground or turn it over. That is why JJ is out front at this point . Not a theory, actual facts.

Piketiger1990 173 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I wouldn't mind Sean being the starter and bringing JFIII in for redzone packages. Maybe that will take place of the Kerryon wildcat package. I know we got a heck of a field goal kicker but I'd really like to see him kicking extra points this year instead of field goals.

WDE You mean the guy that threw 6 picks and fumbled at least twice in the first few games last year? I do hope he has turned it around and becomes the QB thought he would be last year. He is a class act and deserves something good to happen after last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reason I ask is because several of JJ mistakes occurred when there was no pressure at all. I mean he literally threw the ball right to the LB against Louisville and Jax State. And sometimes he threw the ball backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did seem to abandon that trend after coming back. I don't think Sean ever shed the Farve-esque label that some attached to him. If you gotta take the forced game changing balls of Sean vs convincing Jeremy to make the right pass more consistently, in Gus's mind, it would have to be a no brainer, eh?

corchjay 5,311 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I know I've been saying it since the end of last year. Sean is the more complete QB in terms of feel, throwing, field vision, and leadership in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
