How would you rate Drake Lindsey in his first season as starting QB?

[gopherbadgerman]

What better stats?

Conference games.
Athan 13 td passes 7 ints
Drake 14 td passes 4 ints

A lot of Athens stats were playing against weak non conference opponents or throwing 50 times against Washington when they are down a lot. Both had negative rushing yards.

Am curious if Drake will make a practice squad though.

Cherry pick whatever stats you want that’s fine. I think Drake is better. Athan had better stats. That’s it.

As a sophomore yes. This year AK was across the board better than Drake in every measureable. But I’d take Drake over him 8 days a week.

AK won three fewer games. That's a pretty big measurable.

Very up-and-down season for him in my opinion, but what do we think?

Has he been selected in the first round yet?

Yep and Athan got most of his stats against Norfolk, Miami “Ohio” and mighty Ohio.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

I rated him a "B" as a freshman and first year starter. If he was rated overall against quarterbacks in the conference, he would be below that. He will have to improve to maintain his ranking going forward.

Ok. There you go

So you’d take Iowas QB over Lindsey then?

 

[MNVCGUY]

Solid B for a redshirt fresham getting his first action as a starter.

Big off season for him, lots of things to work on heading into his redshirt sophomore year. Has a chance to be a really really good QB if he keeps working and developing.

When did he play for Fleck?

 

[HoustonTXGopher]

I gave him a C based on playing the position, as a freshman, probably a B. He has upside, will get better. He needs improved O-Line play and better running game.

 

[gopherbadgerman]

When did he play for Fleck?

Not that I’m aware of

 

[Full Speed Ahead]

This year’s Drake wasn’t as good as last year’s Max, but it’ll sure be nice having him back again next season.

 

[WAGopher]

Am curious if Drake will make a practice squad though.

He’ll have to get faster and more flexible to have a chance at the NFL. Since he seems tight by nature, he’ll need to work hard at it.

C. I thought he maybe regressed a little or was flat improvement wise. As stated above needs to improve agility more than anything, heavy feet are not ideal in today’s football quarterbacks.

Not very good on deep balls. Throws on time well, very well actually.
