I meant exactly that: he looked interesting. Decent arm strength and accuracy, seems like he can scramble, but had some issues with the playbook. I’m not saying the Stamps won’t pick someone else up and cut him, but of the new QB’s, to my eyes, he looked like he might be worth investing some time in. Unfortunately, like I said, it’s hard to evaluate talent in a scrimmage.

I mean that assuming a role that makes better use of his mobility doesn’t necessarily put Mitchell at substantially increased risk of injury. The quarterback needn’t absorb a hit when he carries the ball if he’s responsible enough to slide.

What do you mean? Guys don’t wanna hit BLM?

It also helps if he hook-slides and generally shows more instinct for self-preservation than did Buck Pierce – who will probably ask to be reincarnated as a piñata when he meets Saint Peter. Mike Reilly is another one who should ease up on the warrior mentality. Both of them are talented enough to deserve long, glorious careers, and I hope they’re able to see them through.
