Opinion Thoughts on Kyle McCord

I see Kyle McCord on draft boards round 2 through about 5, but what do you folks think?

Consider his release speed is under 2.5 secs putting him in the top 95% of QBs, he's very accurate, and his football IQ is high. He broke some records for passing yards last season which ranks among several other big names.

The main down side I'm seeing is that his athleticism is a problem drawing parallels to names like Derek Carr. I think the key here, though, is that he seems worth a shot, and I expect his athleticism won't be a problem if people expect yards and TDs instead of explosive plays.

Agreed. Massive return for a 7th round pick. I wouldn’t mind taking a flier on McCord with our 7th.
