STEPHEN MORRIS

He has potential. He's just so inconsistent. I also heard from Golden and Morris how, "he is finally healthy, and feeling good" for over a month going in to the Louisville game.
 
If the staff knew he was injured, why did they not give Ryan Williams playing time?

The team (and W's) are more important than a single player.

He'll make a great 3rd string "just an arm" QB in the league with his headset and clipboard...

I disagree. I think he will be a very good qb with good NFL coaching. He was pretty darn good last yr when he wasn't injured.

Wait ...... What ?

You don't think he has the physical tools to be a successful Qb in the league?

Not really......
He has a cannon for an arm and that is it. He doesnt have ideal size, though he isnt small. His footwork is a mess, and he hasnt shown the ability after 4 years to go through his progressions. On top of all, he is this enigma because he can make the throws that most QBs cant but he cant make the throws most QB can. He has zero touch and has shown nothing over the last 4 years that he can make that throw. That isnt coaching, that is straight physical ability. Also regarding your statement, that he has at any point been pretty good is fools gold to me. He played a solid half against FSU, that much I will give him, but other than that I saw a kid that was shut down by any decent competition he faced. He feasted on low end to mediocre teams with the big play, and yes I am talking about 2012 also. He would go cold in those games also, but he would have stretches where he would hit big play after big play. He just is a marginal NFL QB at best.......

SM has as much arm talent as anyone but mechanics are sloppy. He also tends to eyeball first read, rather than go through progressions.

He has the physical ability to play at the next level, it's just the mental side that hurts him. I could see him as a project , take in the 3-4 round and coach up. Keep him in the same offense / system.

He's had three oc's in college ,so that hasn't helped with his growth .

That being said, I wouldn't touch him as a prospect, waaaaaay too many cons for only one pro..... A cannon arm .

Says volumes about Williams and Morris.

Basically a one legged Morris is much better than a fully healthy Williams.

maybe that tells us something about williams, no?

i've always thought this. morris was severely limited during a good part of our schedule and the fact that ryan williams made no appearance suggested to me that morris severely hurt was better than williams at full health. i'm not optimistic about next year.
 
i think fisch could do some things with morris... he had good success with him here, i don't think it's a coincidence.
