Trask in the NFL?

[Swamp Donkey]

I don't think Trask has a noodle arm at all. More than enough for the NFL.

And he has an NFL frame. NFL loves measurables.

It wont surprise me if he goes, strike while the iron is hot, given that Mullinz will have multie.running QBs next year and is itching to run HIS offense.

I dont know how NFL will deal with the lack of experience as there has been no one similar in history.

It may depend on how he finishes the year. If he continues to look great all year, he may just leave.

Law is liking Trask posts now. That’s not insignificant.

I really don’t see anyone using a draft pick on a QB with something like 9-10 starts under his belt. Trask would be wise to return and battle with whoever we have next year. He’ll be tough to unseat if he continues to improve.

 

[CGgater]

Absolutley not. He's nowhere near as good as Brady.

Jk, now that I've gotten the GCMB troll stupidity out of the way, I agree with Ox and J (although 2nd rd might be a tad high? Maybe 3rd or 4th?). No clue if he'll ever be a productive starter, but maybe he surprises a few people.

No doubt he is an NFL prospect. He may stay out of loyalty to the university and the fact that he'll only have one season of experience, but we are going to lose 4 or 5 WRs. Without those weapons to throw to, it may be difficult for him to match his stats for this year. Assuming he continues to play well, his draft stock will likely be higher this year than next.

Have your laugh McChuckles, Trask is gonna replace Brady and keep the dynasty rolling. You heard it here first.

Well, 2nd from you since I said it in post #3 of this thread

Scary thought: Trask decides to hit the draft and capitalize on his Cinderella story after defeating UGA and leading the Gators to Atlanta (who knows from there). Franks returns as starter. Back to mediocrity.

This noodle arm theory is a joke. He puts plenty of zip on it when he needs to. I see a few things that translate well at the next level. For one, he can get through all of his progressions. That's pretty rare. He very good with anticipation throws and can throw a receiver open. Those are the 2 biggest things these air raid guys struggle with coming out. Obviously he's a coachable high character guy. If he keeps playing like he has I wouldn't be suprised if he starts getting some love from the scouts. Didn't matt Cassel get drafted without ever being a starter?

How much eligibility does Trask have?

How much eligibility does Trask have?

One more year.

 

[deuce]

He's coachable, he will make a team.

 

[oxrageous]

So far, 7 haters have voted that Trask won't get a sniff (must be Franks nutswingers). Most of the names on that list aren't surprising, but there a few eyebrow-raising names there. I'm going to have to have a word with those people privately about getting their minds right.

if Jeff Driskel has managed to find his way on a roster for however many years now I can't imagine a world where Trask doesn't get a shot.

Right? Trask is better than Driskel after only playing in 4 -5 games than Driskel was after playing for years.

Bengals practice squad for two years, mostly bc they are the bengals and 49ers had to pay most of the freight.

Yes, Trash is far better but it's always a crapshoot in the NFL. One needs a bit of luck. Would Brissett be playing if Brady didn't get hurt or suspended (I forget which)?

They will like Trash's measurables, and I presume he does reasonably well in the combine.

 

[t-gator]

Let's not pretend brissett was torching secondarys left and right. He was a solid qb at NC state. And he doesn't have a patrick mahomes type of arm either. I guess reading about driskel made me think of it.

Trask certainly has all the tools to make it to the next level. He would have to latch on to a downtrodden NFL team and get a few breaks to get into some games. You just never know in the NFL. A lot of lower star QBs in the NFL so it is possible. Holding that clipboard for a few years has certainly benefited him greatly and now he is making the most of his opportunity to be the man and he has been cool, calm, and collected back there. Hopefully he continues to progress and stays another year.

 

[ChiefGator]

I voted, but my public comment is much less cowardly than a secret poll.

You can do both, but why bother stating the obvious.

When it comes to signing an NFL QB, he is a legit no-risk prospect. QBs are extremely hard to find. Either take him in the late rounds (most teams expect those picks to be role-players anyway), or sign him as a free agent to a practice squad. With the right coach, in the right system, I think he could be more than just a practice squad QB. He's definitely backup quality, at a minimum. Who knows what his upside is... he's just now getting coached and is making the most of it.
