For the record, I was a bigger supporter of all those QB's included in the analysis than I am of Jake. How, though, do you give ER3 a pass for throwing balls into the ground 5 yards short of open receivers while shunning Waters for missing some short throws? Some of the most frustrating plays that involved Waters last year were situations our staff put him in or when Toe Miller volleyball set a pass off his helmet straight to the other team. Now, not all of the mistakes that Waters made were the fault of someone else and neither were Sams' mistakes...but is there not room to be excited about the potential we have with Waters? His athleticism is adequate but his throwing abilities will spare us from audible-ing to speed option left/right or a skettibrain QB dive every other play. Of course he's going to rank 10th on that list when it comes to running. Let the kid come in, settled down a bit after his big boy season of football, and be a much steadier version of a good QB we saw last year.
Daniel is electric but could he last an entire season? To maximize his effectiveness, you run...A LOT. I'm not convinced Daniel could have lasted a season being used the way our staff would use him.
