    This week’s film breakdown analyzes Liberty University’s Quarterback Malik Willis as he enters the 2022 NFL draft. Willis has some of the highest highs, but some of the lowest lows of any QB in this year’s class. The NFL has set a recent precedent of betting on insane talent at the QB position, and Willis is without a doubt the best in the class. Will his name be called before any of the other QBs in the 2022 class? This week’s episode uses the all-22 coaches film to analyze Liberty University’s Malik Willis as he enters the 2022 NFL Draft.

    I think a lot of Willis’s success will come from the scenario he’s drafted in. If a coaching staff like the Steelers’ draft him, I can see him succeed because they have the history of developing an unconventional QB with a lot of talent and a big arm (Ben). It truly depends on where he goes

    • @zzdoodzz
      @zzdoodzz Před 2 lety +10

      You could say this is the case for most top QB prospects, they have lots of talent that can be molded but need to have a good place to go to. For example, this why everyone still thinks Trevor Lawrence will be just fine once he gets good staff around him. I do like your idea of the Steelers, they typically are a team that shows the value of committing long term and will be patient.

    Freeze made his name as an OC-minded HC by simplifying his O to make the game as easy as possible on his QB. His QB reads are all about putting defenders in conflict, so in reality, the reads can't get much simpler than that. If they're leveling a CB, well, he can't be in two places at once, so you throw the ball where he isn't. Willis' most troublesome games this year came against Ole Miss and Louisiana.
    Against DJ Durkin's D, he was pounded on all game, when they had nine sacks and 11 TFLs. Of course, not all of that was Willis' fault, but any coach knows, while the OL might get often blamed, it's not nearly their fault as much as they're blamed. Against Louisiana, Napier coached under Saban for four or five seasons, so you know where he learned how to choose his DCs. They sacked him seven times and had eight TFLs.
    When a QB is prone to run as much as Willis is, and a D is living in your backfield, it's not a good combination. Lots of guys have powerful arms, but really the League throw is the 35-yard out from across the field. Any QB who can make that throw consistently has the arm to play in the League, so a guy throwing a ball 65 or 70 yards isn't really necessary. I think that the biggest problem w/ Willis will be three-fold: First, he's coming from a league, where the game is played at a much slower pace than the highest levels of D1, let alone in the League. Second, when he played against the two teams I mentioned, he saw more exotic looks that he'll see plenty of in the League, and he rarely knew what he was looking at. Finally, he's going to have to learn an O from scratch b/c of the watered-down O Freeze had him running at Liberty. Freeze really did him no favors, so Willis will enter the League needing to learn from the ground up.
    As you said, he's a really smart kid, and he's incredibly gifted athletically. There will always be some team that says, "We can coach him up," so he'll get his chance. Here's hoping that he picks up what he needs to quickly.

    • @AlexRollinsNFL
      @AlexRollinsNFL  Před 2 lety +12

      Beautiful comment, I definitely agree with your 3 statements. I didn't think the speed of the game was an issue for him, but as stated he at times struggles with processing. I mentioned he doesn't have a lot of "quarterbacky" throws and that's definitely a concern- you would have liked to see him layer the ball over 2nd level defenders but there's rarely any examples of that. I believe Freeze had a ton of curls and stationary routes cause he believed Willis had to see something open before he threw it. There were barely any crossers or overs which we see a ton in the NFL

    • @jmg999
      @jmg999 Před 2 lety +1

      @@AlexRollinsNFL If Freeze really wanted to get Willis more comfortable throwing over the middle, he could've instituted that double slant route combo that 'Bama runs on their replace RPOs. I believe that they call it Lion. They run it while employing counter, but w/ Willis, they could even run a sort of inverted veer concept w/ it. The problem is, I don't know if he gets the ball out in time to make those quick throws w/ the minimal separation between the receiver and DB. That's where I think that the speed of the game might hurt him at the next level. Trying to learn this from a baseline while threading a needle is exceedingly difficult.

    Appreciate your breakdown on Willis because there's a lot of wildly conflicting opinions on him lol!
    I think receiver talent - or lack thereof - plays a major role in QB evaluation and is often times ignored because everybody wants to (understandably) hone in on the QB's individual traits, which is a huge part of the process, of course, but not everything.
    A lot of analysts in the 2020 pre-draft period completely overlooked how Justin Herbert didn't have any NFL-calibre skill players around him, while Burrow and Tua both had multiple 1st-round receivers at their disposal and so many network analysts and draftniks seemed to ignore this context when comparing their raw numbers.
    That Herbert's numbers were in any way comparable to the other two's - despite having none of the same support - should've been a massive point in his favour but it wasn't for most people. Not exactly a revolutionary observation, I know but it always surprises me how little emphasis people place on it compared to a QB's 'intangibles' and deep-ball distance. I think people try so hard to make QB-drafting such an exact science that they end up over-thinking things and ignoring obvious points staring them straight in the face.
    The talent gap at college is so much bigger than in the NFL because you have some players projected to be future superstars vs people who have little-to-no chance of making it at a professional level, yet people too often times treat it like the NFL where most teams have similar levels of talent and therefore most failures are chiefly down to the QB themselves. People act like Herbert magically became a different QB in a matter of months, when a lot of his college 'mistakes' in his senior year will have been down to simply not being able to trust his receiving corps to do the job asked of them - that lack of trust absolutely affects a QB's accuracy, timing, decision-making etc. on the field.
    That's not to say every 'project' guy like Josh Allen or potentially Malik Willis is going to be a success, but I don't think it's a coincidence that the NFL is trending more and more towards thar type of player.

There could be many factors as to why he played at liberty but in reality it’s all about getting seen and being in the right situation.

    By the way, During the 2021 season, liberty seldom hurried the offense at all. In fact, they purposely slowed the offense down in both 2020 and 2021 seasons to give their defense a rest and keep them off the field as much as possible. Too many people think they know what they’re talking about and most of them never even watched a liberty football game.

    The bottom line is Willis was better than Trubisky and Darnold coming out and came from a higher level school than Josh Allen and Carson Wentz. He’s clearly a spectacular player and everybody needs to quit nit picking at every little thing like any other QB was just so perfect. He had to carry a whole team that just moved up from the FCS and he didn’t have elite level talent around him like other prospects. He’s shown time and time that he is THAT GUY. So the nit picking is ridiculous

    if Willis gets drafted to a Carolina it wouldn't be the worst since Carolina has had ability with a mobile qb (Newton) and could relieve pressure from CMC. but i also think he is a major MAJOR project. he needs to stop throwing in towards the sidelines and has to get faster game recognition on where the safety's are and trusting your arm in the NFL is key. Brett Favre got a lot of picks but he threw the football everyplay hes gotta stop playing safe and let the ball fly.

    @davidrobert1229 Před 2 lety

    he doesnt throw down the middle because he doesnt move up into the pocket when the rush comes at him, He takes off to the sidelines instead and tries to then turn and hit it up the field . Something Lamar Jackson still does , They both hold the ball too long and have bad footwork in his set up and post delivery, he often doesnt follow thru and flicks the ball the same way Jackson does. He throws and then holds his "pose" intead of completing the full throwing motion

    Nothing negative can really be said about the coaching staff at liberty! That’s ridiculous! Coach freeze and the quarterback coaches are amazing. Liberty continues to lose coaches to other schools because of their ability. Malik Willis struggled last year because he had virtually no offense of line help. No one would’ve done near as well as he did had they had as poor of the offense of line as he had. Of course he was sacked more than virtually anyone because of the Constant pressure while he was always trying to make a play as a great And awesome athlete!! If Willis had just the average office of line protection, the team probably would’ve gone 11 and two again in 2021 as he did in 2020. Most quarterbacks with that office of line would’ve had a season something like two and 10. Willis is going to be amazing at the pro level give him a chance and you’ll never regret it!

    He reminds me of McNabb. He doesnt have McNabbs elusiveness coming out however.
    So Willis like McNabb is a bit raw, he's th kind of QB who needs to sit for a few games before starting. I could see Seattle, Philadelphia, Steelers or New Orleans all take this kid. He's constantly a second late, but you can fix that to a degree... but there are times when his receivers don't reach their landmarks quick enough or aren't wide open so he gets spooked. Add in a terrible OL and you get a talented QB who is trying to win games appearing to be worse than he is.
    Still he certainly should be QB1 its not relatively close.

    This is what I've been saying about Malik Willis. He's got amazing potential, but his NFL career will get ruined if he is made a starter from the get-go. That is why I don't think he is a fit for teams looking for an immediate quarterback replacement (like Steelers, Buccaneers, etc.). He'd be best served to land at a team where their quarterback has reached their potential, but needs replacing fairly soon. That way, he can learn to fix his glaring weaknesses before jumping into the main spotlight.
    Maybe the Broncos could be a good fit for him where he could dial things being the 2nd string to Terry Bridgewater for a year or two before taking center stage. I think he'll really shine in a situation like that.
    That is my thoughts on him anyways.
