Despite transitioning to a new team and offense, QB Kyle McCord (@kylemccord16) is proving to be the same productive quarterback for @CuseFootball so far this year.
He’s showcasing even more NFL potential with an impressive first two games of the season than he did at his last stop, and he’s put himself firmly on the radars of NFL evaluators.
With a stellar 381 yards (career-high) and 4 TDs in the upset win against a Georgia Tech that stifled Florida State, McCord and the #Syracuse offense are proving they belong in the upper echelon of the ACC this season.
He’s shown an awesome combination of poise in the pocket and arm talent allow him to comfortably read through progressions and accurately zip the ball into tight windows ().
McCord is a one of a handful of transfer QBs showing that they a.) can adapt to new situations quickly and be successful and b.) maybe we’re a bit underrated at their previous stop.
Excited to see McCord’s development continue this year. This team has a chance to put together a very good season and record

That seems to be the drum beat. TE seems to evolve a lot post NFL draft. Loveland has 20 targets through 2 games (@dpbruglar) and not surprising pencil in an Iowa TE early. Not sure if there is a draft day 1 RB yet, but seems to be a lot of day 2 guys. Ohio St - Penn St game will have 4 of the top 10 RBs.Weak QB class…stronger RB class…slightly below average WR class…does that sound right? Early I know…

#Alabama QB Jalen Milroe vs. Wisconsin
Deep downfield accuracy was on display yet again (his best trait). Like how they’re embracing 11/12 personnel and motions w/TEs for designed QB runs/play action off of it. Still want to see more throws over the middle of the field from him.
Milroe’s deep touch was excellent vs. Wisconsin.
My notes on Milroe prior to the season

I think Ewers & Beck are Maye Caliber prospects. Ward is rising. Sanders is all over the chart. I wouldn't be surprised to see 4 first round QBs.Weak QB class…stronger RB class…slightly below average WR class…does that sound right? Early I know…
Based on QB play this year we will definitely see a large batch of that position in the first (like most years). May even see more of a trend of teams with aging QBs grab one earlier than expected like the Falcons did. Not a position you can succeed without at least adequate play.I think Ewers & Beck are Maye Caliber prospects. Ward is rising. Sanders is all over the chart.
