Trey Lance Scouting Report By Charlie Campbell Strengths: Tremendous skill set Powerful arm Can fire fastballs into tight windows Arm strength to challenge defenses downfield Throws a good deep ball Impressive deep-ball precision Aggressive to push the ball downfield Throws well in the short, quick passing game Leads receivers downfield for more yards after the catch Accurate Poise Stays calm with rush closing around him Keeps his eyes downfield despite rush closing in on him Good athlete Mobility Uses his feet to buy time Strong build makes him tough to sack, tackle Keeps his eyes downfield while scrambling Hard-charging downhill runner Will lower his shoulder and run over tacklers Dynamic runner True dual-threat quarterback Can throw off platform Good speed for a quarterback Avoids turnovers overall Upside Quote All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.

The best way to start rebuilding is with a good QB. Quote All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others. George Orwell.

I would have offered Bud Dupree and the first round pick to Houston, second round next for Deshaun Watson. Basically they gave up there 1st 3 rounds this. Hopefully they can make a trade to stockpile some picks to help rebuild. 1 LFG reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haskins isnt the answer. Do you now still think QB? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

O$U QB's sukk in the pros Running backs are a different story. Tomlin better not take another linebacker. If he doesn't take Trey Lance it is the dumbest move, arrghh.

Cacao 2,548 Report post Posted January 22 I'd need to see more from Trey Lance. Only had 1 game last season and he was inconsistent throwing in that game. Completed only 50% (15-30) with an INT...against Central Arkansas. I am demanding that the Steelers use every draft pick on interior lineman. 1 jaman reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh I agree with you about both the D line and O line but Ben is leaving soon and the #1 man on the team is the QB, I don't see it with Landry Jones and Dobbs.

Is Landry Jones even on the practice squad? I think he left a season or two ago. In regards to QB, it's not a MUST to draft the QB for the next 15 years now. They could do very well with a FA for a couple years. It's possible that a backup could progress into that roll. It's not mandatory to draft one now though. Look how many years were between Bradshaw and Ben. Who knows, the Steelers QB of the future might still be in pre-school right now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
