That last throw is exactly what makes you shake your head about QB development. Like he didn’t even realize a safety was over the top.
didn't help that he threw it off his back foot with no pressure. it was an awful throw

I didn't care he wasn't a threat to run, I think it forced him to think more, there were some poor throws but he made a lot of clutch throws, and even with some happy feet he still settled to make a throw, hell were were almost 5 for 5 on 4th down, and even that was close. It was a gusty performance.

Sky is legitimately a good QB. He’s clearly hampered by not being able to run and having a weak receiving corps.

His line was 29/41 320 yards 3TDs 0INTs, that's fantastic, by any standard. Anyone saying he was just okay is either unaware or disingenuous.
I think we beat Oklahoma State with him on the field.
Post by: wetwillie on October 03, 2021, 08:11:13 AM
Skylar was awesome today. He did many things that young Skylar or any of our current young QBs didn't do. With the exception of the pass he threw to the safety that he dropped, he stepped into every single pass. He was fantastic in going through his progressions. You all say he wasn't a threat to run but the Oklahoma linebackers sure in the hell thought so. Every time he stepped up in the pocket they reacted to him and it opened up passing windows. I'm not going to go back and watch but if that's your thing keep track of his passing percentage when he stepped up in the pocket. This is actually better for him if he can continue to find open players when he does this because he can run less.

We desperately need a transfer QB, the delta between Skylar and what we have is so big. I would say Rattler and UT’s Thompson are a cut above what Sky can do and Bohanan and Purdy maybe slightly better but he’s at worst the 5th best QB in the league. Our offense looks pretty darn good with even a league average QB.

I agree with all of this, but especially this. Once our defense put the clamps down on OSU we didn't have a chance with Howard and a slightly better chance with Lewis but it was still basically hapless trying to score, we'd have done more than enough to win. Also we wouldn't have given up that dumb ass fumble TD.

Purdy is way too turnover prone, I couldn't imagine how awful that offense would look without that threat of Hall. Bohannon's even remotely good passing games have only been against Texas Southern and KU, the other three games they have played his numbers have been very similar to Will Howard.

Doege has always been butt at WVU and they don't like him. He's legitimately has had 4 good games, unfortunately for us, two of them have been against K-State.
We're going to lose to tech and beat WVU. Both streaks have been fluky and both will end this year.

I like him a lot. he’s a below average starting college quarterback but an above average overall college quarterback. he’s also by far our best quarterback which isn’t great for us.
He’d look even better if we had legit P5 WR’s. Guy is slinging it to 5’3 Phillip Brooks and Kurt Warner’s kid.

I think we've all come to the conclusion that Sky is a serviceable/good P5 QB at this best and marginally better than Howard at his worst. Unfortunately, he just doesn't consistently play near his ceiling.

That's about 1.4 times the revolution rate of a helicopter's blades in-flight ( 450 rpm ).
And a football's radius is approximately 3x greater than rotor blades.

I admittedly have failed to take into consideration spin rate when evaluating QBs.Yes literally the first time I ever have seen the metric but obviously it is super important and needs to be priority #1 for NFL scouts this year imo.

9th best QB in a draft class that he predicts will have 8 drafted. Feels like our guy has a real shot of getting his name called on Saturday.
Depends on the game tonight, as there are a bunch of NFL scouts watching.

Sky could be a flyer for a 6/7th round bs pick by a team or a high priority UDFA undrafted pick where he gets to choose where he goes like Pringle. :emawkid: :crossfingers:I feel like he might have a better chance making a 53 man roster as an UDFA.

If there’s one thing he can do, is zip it. Unfortunately, he’s never had receivers for it.

His biggest weakness is being injury prone. If he doesn’t get signed that will be the biggest factor I think. Sky has pretty consistently played great when fully healthy.Our WRs weren't great but Skylar had problems getting through his progressions too.Absolutely. His biggest weakness by far.

He's not going anywhere past the scout team so the negatives don't really matter as long as he can throw a decent ball to whatever route the defense wants to work on.Yeah, he’ll probably be a 3rd string guy in the league, which usually amounts to the practice squad these days. Even if this happens, I’m super happy for him. He’s overcame a lot. Easy guy to root for.

His shuttle results are much better than his 40 times. I think that matches what we saw on the field, much more of an evasive runner than a burner.

40 isn’t really a measure of quickness. I mean it’s almost half a football field. And Klein sure seemed fast on the field compared to the defense when he got in space. Although you wouldn’t guess it just by looking at him.
I agree, as previously stated: "very smart and elusive runner, but not quick.".

Sky in the 7th round to the Texans

The day that Skylar Thompson suits up on a NFL Sunday we are going to play some golf then head to the closest casino that has sports betting available and double down on Skylars team to cover. The top 2 QB's on the Texans will go down and then Skylar steps in to lead a crucial TD drive at the end to help us cover the +14 spread. :love:
(He will be named the starter and go 2-1 inspiring all sorts of hope in the Texans before tweaking his knee and finishing the season on IR)

I still can’t believe he got drafted. Every ligament in his body is torn. Feels good, guys!
Carson Strong went undrafted and we saw what he did against us in the fall. I think Skylar must have had a few less torn ligaments than him.

Skylar has the easiest path to being a starting QB in the history of QBs.Teddy Bridgewater is still on the roster and I’m sure signed a decent 1 year deal. My guess is they’ll keep him hidden on the practice squad this year, unless there’s an injury and he’ll have a chance to be a true #2 next year. Nobody suits 3 QB’s on game day anymore, unfortunately.

— It was another very light day for Teddy Bridgewater, who took his turn for three sets in team drills after being kept out of teams Monday because of a minor injury. Bridgewater mostly handed off, though, as he completed his only pass attempt, a swing pass to running back Salvon Ahmed.
— Skylar Thompson had his best performance in a couple of practices, completing 5 of 9 passes (again, by our unofficial count). He showed nice zip on his passes and had long completions to Waddle and Trent Sherfield.

no, he had a unicorn career. teams just accept now that if QB1 goes down, the season is over and it's time to improve your draft position. terrible use of cap space to pay a backup qb
Chase will always be a booger eater... now he's just a really rich booger eater

That was my first thought - man, Thompson's good, but not great. He can play and win over half the games he starts, and is a good student of the playbook. Yeah, I can see him holding a clipboard for 8 - 10 NFL seasons, collecting around $10 million/year.
I hope I'm wrong, and Skylar makes a name for himself as a starting QB in the NFL. Miami looks as good as any to do that.

I think a better comparo is to Drew Brees rather than Chase Daniel. His ability to read the defens is pretty great.

Second drive, down by 2: another good looking trip down the field, but stalls out in field goal range. Our kicker hits the post, and that's that.

Usually the ceiling for a 7th round QB is the practice squad, but I don't think he clears waivers if the Fins try that. It would suck for me, but good for Skylar.

I'm not sure how Bridgewater's contract is setup, but i'm not sure it's that easy. I think he's due 10 mill this year. They're keeping sky tho.
Looks like it's $6.5 million, and it's a one year deal, so there aren't any cap savings to be had by cutting him. Still, if you have to choose one or the other, you choose the guy you can lock up for a multi-year deal for less than $1 million per and eat the $6.5 million. Otherwise, you have to go overpay for some other journeyman backup next year.

That has a bit of an asterisk on it, because he's only comparing qualifiers, meaning 10 attempts per game. Sam Ehlinger had a better rating, but only 29 attempts.
Here's some McDaniels coachspeak from today's presser:
Quote
(On QB Skylar Thompson and making a case for a third quarterback?) – "He's made it tough, hasn't he? No, I think those type of players that are able to, as rookies, come in and contribute, are always really exciting, and it's more rare that you see a quarterback doing that. It's more than just his quarterback rating and his completion percentage. He has owned the responsibility of the quarterback in terms of all the other players on the field with him. He's made them better by helping them get aligned, and we've had very few procedural issues. And so I think in preseason football, there are a lot of quarterbacks that get opportunities. It's rare that a guy can be a seventh-round draft pick and people outside of the organization actually know his name. I think he's opened eyes with the way he's played, and it's made that situation very tricky, in terms of whether or not you can try to have him on practice squad or keep him on the 53 (-man roster). But you know, much like a lot of players, I think he – especially one of the things I was most happy with in this past game is pretty much all the participants can hold their head high and stand on what they've done in the preseason, with the closing of it being last night. And he should hold his head high and hopefully rest easy because he has done quite literally everything you can to be a part of this team."

Mess screwed some stuff up and needed to go, but the biggest impact on our offense over the last two seasons was that Skylar all too often lacked the most important ability of all, availability
Edit: FWIW, I also think Sky’s injury history was baked into him going in the 7th round.

Last I heard QB's minimum salary on the roster is $350,000. That was about 10-12 years ago, so I'm sure it has increased since then. He'll always be behind first-round drafted QBs, but if he stays in the NFL he will be well off.
I believe he signed somewhere around 2M for 3 years

Looks like it was a 4 year deal that starts at around 700K and ends at 1.1M with an 82K signing bonus.

Not looking great on his throws so far - 1/4 for 6 yards, plus an underthrown ball to Tyreek for a big DPI. Hopefully he overcomes the nerves soon - no indication that Teddy is coming back, having suffered some sort of elbow and/or head injury.

I thought he looked pretty decent considering the circumstances of his first action. There are a lot of 1st round picks who don't get on the field 5 team games after they've been drafted. It wasn't a disaster considering the difference in speed of the game from college and preseason to a full blown NFL game against a good defense. He was also let down by some untimely penalties and drops.Absolutely a team failure. Failing to take the lead on the missed FG changed the tenor of the 4th, as well, as it took the playcalling away from what was working. I have no idea who is starting next against the Vikings, but I assume Skylar will get more practice reps this week. If they sign Reid Sinnett off the practice squad, then you know.

Given that both their QBs are in the protocol Sky will absolutely get a lot of reps this week in practice. It sounds like Bridgewater doesn't have any symptoms other than the stumble so he may be cleared to play for the game but no way he will practice this week. If they hadn't had the malpractice with Tua's concussion I am guessing Bridgewater would be a lock to start but they may be ultra conservative with him just to try and save face.I thought he looked pretty decent considering the circumstances of his first action.

It seemed his time to make a play was in the 3-4 second range. If they want him to be successful, he needs 5-6 seconds. Miami has an OL problem, and that is why their QBs are getting hurt.Maybe their QB's keep getting killed because the RB's rarely block?

This is also a factor. All I can tell is they have an issue with QB protection. It won't matter who they have @QB, the performance goes way down when he's running for his life. The receivers look bad because they don't have enough time to complete their routes and get open.

Now, I did not see a second of that game, so you might be 100% correct but watching football for 40 years, my guess was Bridgewater seeing if he could throw a football after hurting his finger had nothing to do with what Thompson did or didn't do. It would be pretty odd for an NFL veteran QB to take the trainers word for it when told he can't play, he's probably going to want to see if his career isn't going to possibly end with two appearances cut short by injury.

Yeah that oline is garbage for pass blocking.
It's painfully obvious whenever Armstead is not around. He had four body parts listed on the injury report today.
So thrilled that Sky got the job done today, but at the same time, I hope we don't require his services next week.

Skylar will certainly have a chance to keep his backup role next preseason. I personally doubt the team drafts over him this year, given that their first pick (out of just five) will likely be in the 50s, and the prospects at that level are unlikely to help you immediately. Anything could happen, though.

No way in hell. Teddy’s contract is done and so is Tua’s. He’ll have a Chase Daniel’s type of career.Tua is in year three of a four-year contract with a fifth-year option. :facepalm:
Skylar will certainly have a chance to keep his backup role next preseason. I personally doubt the team drafts over him this year, given that their first pick (out of just five) will likely be in the 50s, and the prospects at that level are unlikely to help you immediately. Anything could happen, though.
kono
They may be forced to draft another quarterback, but it won't be because of, or at the expense of Skylar. His performance today wasn't one that you can assess that he isn't a NFL quarterback. That offense, the line and the skill positions, were decimated. The media and team seem to be happy with how he did, so I'll take that as good. He could have gotten pulled and he didn't, that tells me at least he's third QB material right now.

I concur. He didn't light the world on fire, but he didn't allow the Jets secondary to win the game at his expense. That was always going to be the biggest threat, given the state of the Jets offense.
There is always a chance that Tua retires for his health - this offseason, or after the next concussion, or the next. If it happens in the immediate future, though, the draft will not be the answer - the team has to chase after a Garoppolo-level FA.

Unlikely the 'Fins can win, but if Sky can make it competitive it will go a long way in securing his spot as QB #2 next year. Never thought I'd say those words.
I mean he's the #2 now. Teddy was active last week and will be this week. Skylar has clearly passed him.

McDaniel said the Dolphins are preparing for rookie Skylar Thompson to make his third career start Sunday; veteran Teddy Bridgewater is still working his way back from a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand, and his possible availability is unclear.
The team signed nine-year veteran Mike Glennon to its practice squad last week.

Yeah, that just confirmed everything I said. They elevated Glennon and Teddy was QB3 as an emergency, because he’s broken. Just like Tua and Sky was earlier this year. Dolphins have gotten a lot of crap this year for how they’ve managed their QB room this year with concussions and so on. First year coach threw a jersey on him just in case. Case closed!They activated Glennon last week from the practice squad. He was QB2 in that game. It's whatever tho. Teddy's deal is done this year, so it will be Sky at #2 moving forward.

Friendly reminder that I’m the #1 NFL scout on this blog, as my guy starts a playoff game today at QB for the Miami Dolphins! He got drafted, made a 53 man roster, started a regular season game at QB, and is now starting a playoff game. Who could have seen this coming?! Me! Have a day, king!I made and won a $100 bet with a buddy that Skylar would make a 53 man roster based solely on Wackys gE takes.

The sugar huddle run up the gut on 3rd & 2 was terrible. That’s a PA home run or TE across the formation every time.

You don't think someone who played a whole playoff game will fall out of the top 96 quarterbacks in the league without another game being played? He's not a starting quarterback right now, but I think you're judging him on a harsh, I've seen that guy for 6 years curve, if you think he's in danger of falling out of the league.

I'm glad his dad got to see him play. Sky will always have being the starting QB in a playoff game. He didn't give up.
I hope he gets a spot somewhere next year
You don't think someone who played a whole playoff game will fall out of the top 96 quarterbacks in the league without another game being played? He's not a starting quarterback right now, but I think you're judging him on a harsh, I've seen that guy for 6 years curve, if you think he's in danger of falling out of the league.
I think the NFL is a pretty harsh league. If I was running a team I'd take him. Being a backup QB is a tough gig and you only get a limited chance to show off you can get the job done. Unfortunately I think Miami saw him not get it done.

Yeah, pay Teddy another 10 mill to be a back up and hurt most of the season vs someone who is 1/10th of the cost and gives the same production will be a really tough offseason decision for the dolphins!I'm glad his dad got to see him play. Sky will always have being the starting QB in a playoff game. He didn't give up.

Yea me too, but even if he doesn’t our guy made about 10 years worth of going pro other than sports salary this year.
Not really
He made a million this year
He made slightly less than a million and he has to break off his agent. At least he's in Florida, so he's got that going for him.
Looks like he made $787k this year, NFL agents are capped at 3% so just under 24k. So let's say Sky made $750k. Median starting salary for a Business major (his degree) is about 55k.
Think it is pretty safe to say even with raises he probably made 10 years of salary this year.

When is the last time a former KSU qb started an NFL playoff game? Can’t be Lynn Dickey can it?!
During the game they said he was the 3rd KSU QB to start a playoff game. Dickey and Grogan being the other 2.

Trevor Lawrence looked like complete crap last season. Some missed opportunities for sure, but I don't think future coaches are going to put that much stock in the result of the games Sky filled in for. If he's healthy and practices well, he'll stick around in the league. He might not be a Justin Herbert type but could definitely be a Geno Smith or Jimmy G.
He could be a Jimmy G. in terms of being a total hunk

Even a mediocre performance at qb gets a win there. He was terrible in the second halfClown post
Dude he was 18-45. 4 sacks, 2 ints, that’s not going to win a playoff game on the road. There were drops, sure, but Skylar had plenty of chances and didn’t make the plays. I think he has a future in the league as a backup and maybe part time starter, but he’s not an nfl starting qb right now.

As a Chiefs fan, I’d rather play the Jags vs the Dolphins, so this was a win-win! First K-State QB to start a playoff game since 1982!
I would rather play the Dolphins. Trevor Lawrence can come into Arrowhead and put up points. Skylar was not going to keep up with the Chiefs.
Not scared of Jags either tho

There was a playoff record of 10 drops by their receivers today. I never called him a starter, but between that and the shitty oline, most of the football community was impressed with what he did today on the road, at a heavily favored Bills squad. Other than 2 shitty passes (forces because of drops), not sure what else he was supposed to do today.Even a mediocre performance at qb gets a win there. He was terrible in the second halfClown post

And then led one of the greatest comebacks in NFL history.Chiefs aren’t letting that happen. I look forward to his many turnovers next weekend.

Hell Allen had a game this season, against the same jets that Skylar beat, in which he had 200 yards, 2 INTs, 0 TDs, and 5 sacks.

They blew 3 timeouts because they couldn't get a rough ridin' play called in 20 seconds.
Apparently McBurrito thought they got a first down at the end of the game on the 3rd & 1 and called a first down play hence the confusion and resulting delay of game penalty along with having the wrong personnel on the field.
Just all around piss poor clock management, you can't expect your 7th round rookie QB to control the clock in a playoff game.
Skylar played as well as you could expect for a rookie 7th round QB starting in the playoffs.
I hope he gets that Chase Daniels bag for the next 10+ years.

In fairness, Brock Purdy is all those things and has still looked nails. Given that we saw how both QBs performed just a year ago I think it’s pretty clear that coaching (and a kickass running game and defense) can make a world of difference.They blew 3 timeouts because they couldn't get a rough ridin' play called in 20 seconds.

How Sky's performed with Miami was fine; considering he is a first-year rookie with a first-year coach. He was good enough to get them in the first round which they have not been able to achieve for several years. He may not have been as impressive as Brock Purdy or Sam Howell, but he got praise for the accuracy of his throws and how well he handled his last two games. Also, his HC was happy with his performance and did not talk about replacing Skylar during his two starting games, even though he had options. I believe he will be an active player next season.
This is the correct take IMO. He's earned the right to hang around the NFL for a bit, and is probably going to have a solid career, but he'll probably not shock the league like Purdy has been. But maybe I'll be wrong

Purdy has put a spotlight on rookie QB's and their value proposition in terms of cap space. If Skylar can elevate his game to solid backup with a decent QB rating, he'll be able to command a backup QB salary when his rookie contract expires. Someone pointed out that Brock Purdy threw 600 more passes in college ball than Thompson. I think Thompson has a good arm and will gain some ground on Purdy if he's given some time behind center.
I think Shanahan, like Reid, makes nearly any QB a top 12-15 guy in the league.
