Downtown says:
I haven’t been a fan of Lynch since day one. I’ve watched his tape and I see a big quarterback who can throw over really bad defenses. He has accruacy concerns, especially on his deep ball. Lynch has a strong arm but I don’t feel comfortable with how inaccurate he can be. Lynch will need to get better at reading defenses for me to feel more comfortable with him as a solid starting quaterback in the NFL. Lynch can get out of the pocket and make plays with his feet but his footwork in the pocket needs to be polished. If I were a GM of an NFL team, I’d be very hesitant on drafting Lynch.
Dorf says:
Paxton Lynch reminds me a lot of Ryan Mallett minus the off the field issues but he is a bit more athletic inside and outside of the pocket. He’s got the frame and size to drool over. His on the field performance against inferior competition could be better but the talent around him wasn’t exactly great either. He has Pro-Bowl level potential, but the chances he ever reaches it are slim to none.
