wbbfan Posted June 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 Younger, quicker Kerry joseph. Both stocky strong physical athletes with a good arm and great running. Joseph was like 30? When he came up and had been converted to S in the nfl. Similar to strevy, but the acceleration piggy has is a game changer. Wideleft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously? You are saying a QB who started for half a decade never made a throw? Hard to believe people are so excited about a guy making a throw on a play that's totally pre-snap with no read. He's putting that fade in there the whole way. Nice throw, but pretty basic for a QB at this level. The one to Agudosi was nice. Clearly has a gun. We've seen him do nothing mid-range. Really excited for him to run the short yardage and maybe a bit of an option package. We haven't seen him do anything as a passer to get jazzed about yet. He can throw, that's great. rebusrankin and Jesse 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of good years with single digit INTs in era when TD/INT ratio under 2-1 wasn't uncommon. Good player, not great player. In the Kevin Glenn realm, just no longevity as a runner.

wbbfan Posted June 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 Pigrome is also 25 and bounced around college a lot. If he could do all he’s shown and run the offense through it’s mid range niche he just wouldn’t be human. If he is as he’s shown, that can be taught. A yeah behind collaros and with buck coaching him will be gold. If he’s half as good as he looks next year he might be the second best qb in the league. (Though times are real thin at qb rn) this is really a perfect situation for him. He doesn’t have pressure and doesn’t need to be forced into action. He can run some package stuff, maybe go hurry up after short yardage plays and doesn’t even need to be qb2. He’s easily the most promising and talent rookie qb we’ve seen since strevy. And he looks like he already has better touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted June 3, 2023 Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 I'm not saying pigrome us a guaranteed star... there's a long way between showing good things in preseason to being an every day starter... but he looks to have all the tools and has that explosive play maker ability which is exciting at this point. kelownabomberfan, BigBlueFanatic, the watcher and 4 others 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted June 3, 2023 Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 Pigrome looks like a nice weapon, who should be great in short yardage and for whom you can have a specific package of plays ala Strevy. wbbfan and Jesse 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well aside from collaros clearly having to be hurt. But he’s a rookie. You expect development especially in a 9 year player 5 year starter. Greene never did. 1 minute ago, JuranBoldenRules said: And Pigrome likely won't come close to matching him.

Eternal optimist Posted June 3, 2023 Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 Everybody too high on Piggy remember Manziel also (at some point?) Had all the tools for a perrenial star in the league.

Goalie Posted June 3, 2023 Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) Pigrome brings excitement. He also brings some poise and escapability and seemingly is not a run first guy but a guy who certainly can run and doesn't ever go down after 1st contact. I don't want to get to crazy, Glenn tho never ran like this dude, this guy runs like a running back running downhill. He also seems to be able to make all the throws too. I'd say Damon Allen maybe mixed with a bit of Kerry Joseph. He looks like Glenn but KG wasn't exactly mobile like Pigrome is. Piggy might have been the fastest guy on the field when he played this pre season. Dude definitely has some pretty high end potential I think but hopefully doesn't need to show all of it this year. Definitely the first true dual threat qb we have had in some time Edited June 3, 2023 by Goalie coach17 and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis is a mobile qb he’s just run to throw like kg. And bishop was an athletic qb similar to Davis. Arbuckle doesn’t have athleticism but still has had a long career that’s made him good money. So pigromes athleticism gives him a very strong chance to have a lengthy career even if he doesn’t develop. Greenes 2 best years are like Joseph’s average 2 years.
