    Dammit, stole my likes.

    This feels like a real *eyes emoji* move.

    Oh no. This might make twitter even more upset than the whiffs lol.

    Stokes wouldn't have been my first choice, but whatever. At least we've got a QB in the fold.

    I won't go there but I know why you'd say that. I'm cool with the take though because I def didn't want us to reach and take ANOTHER project at QB as we did last cycle with Max Brown

    I think we already had one. Watch Whittemore's clips. With Stokes in the fold, Creed can stay at WR. I suspect he'll get some plays at Wildcat.

    Yeah, I think the Stokes hate is overblown as his film is fine. I just don't think there's a lot of upside with him, what you see is what you'll get.

    Considering where we are on the QB board, we could do much worse. It's not like his commitment is going to prevent us from going portal shopping either.

    59% completion percentage. I'll take that. Hopefully he can improve on that.

    Just for comparison's sake Arch Manning was at 61% completion percentage and he threw more touchdowns than Arch his jr season.

    He has drawn comparisons to Kenny Pickett. threw for 2672 yards and 22 TD in 2021. Is he better than Jaden Rashada?

    Creed wasn't ever going to be in the plans at QB. We took him because of his athletic ability. He'll be used as a slot guy, running some jet sweeps and the occasional trick play.
