You look at Trey Petty on the one hand and Carson Boyd on the other, this is very much the type of player who is either lined up to start or lined up to transfer after a year or two based on practices we don't see, with lined up to transfer being structurally the more likely of the two outcomes.
The system just inherently incentivizes teams to look to the portal at QB, it is what it is. But we may have gotten a hit that bucks that trend with Boyd, which is good news.
Higher. His mechanics are pretty refined for a HS QB. If he was taller, he'd probably be an SEC recruit
I agree with this. His size might limit him a little but has all the tools to be a college QB. Can run as needed. Really, really liked some of his intermediate throws. Able to get the tip of the football down without losing too much velocity.
Hopefully better long term. Petty got to college and didn’t really want to work all that hard(easy to do for a lot of college freshman)

"TANK" = not the 1-word description for a QB that truly gets me excited.
(Bad read on my part?)
it’s a similar build as Johnny Manziel and Russel Wilson.
Mahomes is also listed as 6’2 225lbs
Sweet! So when he torches a defense for a touchdown, we get to say to that defense, "You've just been taken to the Slade Shack!!"
I'll see myself out...
I hope so, but I think it's very very unlikely. With the way the portal works and the fact that the QB position doesn't rotate like others, I just think there will always be lots of highly talented portal entries.
I love watching a guy develop over time, but I just think that we won't see that at the QB spot. I hope I'm wrong.
