but he has more of a down field passing game than most dual threat QBs. I think he probably threw 45 yards or more on that hail mary last year.

Playing man coverage is actually easier on the dual threat QBs to run the ball because most defensive backs have their backs to their QB so he can take off and run.

I have seen him in college and he was the highest ranked dual threat QB out of high school and he proved he could play so I definitely think he deserves to be drafted.

I do agree they should fire Kliff Kingsbury. The Commanders offense looks like the Cardinals before Gannon took over. They also have Zach Ertz on the team just like the Cardinals.

He can be hard to adjust to teams in the 2nd season or after teams start playing you different but there were many Bears fans that wished they drafted Daniels instead of Caleb Williams so a lot changed in a year and a lot more can change in a year.

It used to be they would draft a QB in the first couple of rounds and give them 3-4 years to develop and many QBs would struggle early in their career. The more reps and experience he gains he will be a great QB down the road. If Washington doesn't want him they can trade him to Arizona for Kyler Murray.
