If a team has good offensive production which is based solely on QB playāas the run and shoot isāhow can one say "not at a high level?" To me, that's a lot like saying Dillon Gabriel isn't a good QB because his team lost four games last season. Do we judge Brodie Croyle on his NFL career? On the 2004 season? On his overall wins and losses? Look, I'm not a big fan of Brodie for a number of reasons but if I used the same criteria on him that wouldn't be a fair shake, right?
If we're talking about NFL-level activity, yes. And yes, we're talking about Mac playing in the NFL. I'm sure June Jones does a good job of finding QBs to play in his system in college. But as for him judging NFL talent, I don't think he's the best evaluator or judge.
Again, I hope Mac goes high in the NFL draft. I hope he lights it up for whatever team picks him. But I don't think June Jones' evaluation of him will sway many teams. Do I think Mac is better than Lawrence? No. I think Trevor Lawrence has some great physical attributes and will bring more to the game (his running ability in addition to his passing). Do I think Mac is a slouch? No. He's a gifted passer with great accuracy. But, he doesn't bring the running ability that Lawrence, Fields or Wilson do.
