[QUOTE="InsideLB, post: 748995, member: 857"] Two of those picks (pop ups when they hit Sims blindly while he was throwing) were on the O-Line not handling the 3-3-5 Cuse was running. Another of the pics was heavily influenced by the rush, and in general we let Cuse put a lot of heat on our QB. Really good, seasoned QBs can get rushed hard and still succeed, but I can't recall true freshmen coming in and thriving under those circumstances. Getting some tight ends back who are more of a threat in the passing game than Coco will help (not taking anything away from Coco who is saving our tails by working his tail off to convert to TE). As you say, someone else *MIGHT* have been able to do better. But then again they might not have been. Yates did not look great in his series, though that's a tough place to come in when everybody knows you're chucking it. If you lose a game though the coaches are in a conundrum with the fans. If it's one QB you are playing, fans say you should be playing other guys. If you play multiple QBs, fans say we just need to pick one guy and develop him. These kids compete in practice and I am willing to wager Sims won the job pretty clearly. I would like to see Graham at some point though just to see how he's developed. One thing I saw last year was he was willing to stay in the pocket and launch a strike long while getting annihilated by rusher(s). [/QUOTE]
