      It’s really crazy how Cassel ended up playing at all. Brady didn’t play that preseason at all due to a foot injury. Cassel was so horrible in the preseason that Belichick was trying to bring in veteran competition with Chris Redman. And when Pollard hit Brady in week 1, Pollard blitzed through Sammy Morris, who was only playing because Kevin Faulk had a 1 game suspension for bringing weed to a Lil Wayne concert in the summer. And even after all of that, Belichick was going to sign either Chris Simms or Tim Rattay to be the starter for the year before he changed his mind and went with Cassel

    An important thing to note about Jason White as to why he wasn't drafted, he tore both of his ACLs in consecutive seasons and when he came back, the Sooners had to run every play in shotgun formation because Jason couldn't take snaps under center and he also couldn't scramble. Despite this, he became an extremely accomplished college QB after his ACL injuries. He had an amazing football journey. Despite winning the Heisman, NFL teams didn't want to draft him cuz he lacked mobility and had injury concerns. He was the last heisman winner to not play in the NFL (not counting Caleb Williams obviously).
    he was one of 3 Heisman winners from 1993-2003 to not play a snap in the NFL along with Eric Crouch and Charlie Ward.

    As a Chiefs fan I still respect and like Cassel. Not everything in KC was his fault and we had a mostly terrible roster along with coaching staff. He had a different offensive coordinator each of the four seasons he was with the Chiefs and when he had Charlie Weis as his coordinator in 2010 he went 10-6. He was also his coordinator with the Patriots in 2008 when he went 11-5. Todd Haley pretty much forced Charlie Weis out, and then got fired himself the following season. Edited to mention that Tom Brady didn't suffer his knee injury in preseason, he injured it in the first game of the season against my Chiefs and then Cassel came out and torched us. We would then trade for him in the off-season.

I really don't know why Cassell didn't reunite with Josh McDaniels, but based on his background you would think that would be a highly probable path to success that has a ton of precedent. Instead, he took a big risk and still found NFL success, even if it was short-lived. Gotta respect the guy's grit and self-confidence.

    The Colts will have to be pretty desperate to have Anthony Richardson at starting quarterback. He has a cannon and is insanely athletic, but he gets shaken out of the pocket if someone sneezes near him and never seemed to learn how to read defenses all that well. He'd throw the ball like a rocket something just to no one at all. It seems like he has a lot of potential to develop, but after watching him disappoint at Florida, I'm not too confident he'll do anything any time soon.

    • @saulspeaks2557
      @saulspeaks2557 Před 9 měsíci +8

      Omg FINALLY someone else sees it too. Richardson is about as sure of a bust as there is. Dude hasn't performed well at any level. He's athletic, seems like a nice kid, but he sucks at playing football. My heart sunk when we drafted him.

    • @GR-bn3xj
      @GR-bn3xj Před 9 měsíci +1

      I don't know when the NFL decided that running fast and having an incredibly strong arm mattered more than accuracy and football IQ. He probably will have some highlight plays based on his athleticism, but how many times do you throw the balls 60 yards down field? They're only hope is to do what Baltimore did and change their entire offense to suit him but even then he's got to be able to make some decisions that he has proven so far unable to. Back in high school we had some players who were faster than our quarterback and could throw the ball further downfield, but they did not make good quarterbacks. They were more of a used as a gimmick every now and then but not an every down type of player. For all of the hype around Lamar Jackson, he has won exactly one playoff game with that system. I get that this guy is a athletic freak, but I'm just glad it's not my team that drafted him. Don't wish him any ill will and I hope he succeeds but until he proves it I will doubt that that style works until someone can win the super Bowl with it.

  • @TheAndyk123
    @TheAndyk123 Před 9 měsíci +3

    Trent Dilfer has a very expensive and prestigious QB camp for high schoolers. Going to his camp pretty much guarantees you a P5 offer and a lot of playing time. NFL scouts consult him for his opinion on guys that attended his camp. It's why players like Tom Savage and Jeff Driskel have hung around in college and the NFL so long despite not showing much of value on the field. It's an ego stroke and a financial incentive for him to say that quarterbacks need grooming and high profile reps in order to get a shot in the NFL and talent alone can't get you there.

    Another player that's good to mention is Jay Schroeder. He only played one season of college ball at UCLA and only started 1 game. He then decided to leave college to play minor league baseball. He was selected in the 3rd round, 83rd pick overall by Washington in the 1984 draft, and went on to have a fairly good career.

    • @DukesAPG
      @DukesAPG Před 9 měsíci +2

      He did have a decent career, but if you ask Washington what they remember of him, they'd say he was the guy between Theismann and Doug Williams who was traded for Jim Lachey, one of the best LTs of his era.

  • @Gungho73

    Oh I love this topic, I already anticipate this episode being good. It's one thing to go from top football/track/basketball etc. star and just be cruising into the NFL before hitting that wall of "everyones a talent here. You can't just skate." But to be someone who had to work at it just to make it to the league because your college for better or worse never chooses you is always an appealing topic. I wonder if with the transfer portal this type of topic will get more bizzare to younger viewers and less likely to happen, or will it happen more to the loyalist student athletes?

He was still drafted, and QBed the Eagles into the playoffs after injuries to McNabb and Detmer. I played against him in HS, and thought he washed out at Oregon. I was shocked when he came off the bench for Philly. Now, he lives just a couple blocks from me.
