Is this a bad look on qb development at Texas?  Quinn was a 1.000 recruit.   I’m not saying it is but if I was an opposing coach id be using this an an example.   Throw in Maalik’s throwing mechanics as well. 
 

Surprised Cam downfall as well.  

I highly doubt it. The track record is the track record. Too many players drafted in general for you to negatively recruit us at the moment. Even for a QB lol.

After the Michigan game, I thought Quinn would make it. But whatever happened to him physically was far more serious than any of us know. He was a ghost of that player when he came back from injury. I think Sark was hoping to get him drafted and keep his dignity. I can understand the intention even if I disagree with the call.

Missing the combine and pro day because of his bad knee didn’t help.

Missing the combine and pro day doesn’t take a 2nd round grade to 7th round / undrafted. Something else there.

They were wondering what can be used against Texas in recruiting.  This draft is giving programs a lot of ammo so far.  This is a big next two seasons for Sark.  He has to get over the hump at least once with Arch imo

Don’t agree with this. Sure, Quinn sliding isn’t ideal. But the amount of draftees they’ve had is still good. And, 3 in the first round tying a program record. These kids know Sark’s track record. They will be fine.

Graham Mertz going before Quinn is pretty ridiculous.

Graham Mertz over Quinn? OK c'mon even the Quinn haters have to wonder about this.

Mertz before Quinn?!

Lol wow. I think I that's the first one I don't see at all. Isn't Mertz basically a worse version of Quinn?

He went down to 317 by the combine and I don’t know if the weight he’s put back on was good weight.

It's really not. Anything further than 15 yards or so is a complete duck. Wildly inaccurate and the ball just hangs and hangs. Most anyone can throw short passes accurately enough in the NFL which is his only real strength. He's also immobile and uncoordinated. There's no physical upside at all that make you think he would be a contributor at the pro level. If you watch some of the Golden highlights they show, he is having to adjust to some hideous passes.

I remember somebody talking about how he completed seventeen passes in a row in a game. Never said most were behind the line of scrimmage passes. Then Sark started talking about how he’s like a baseball player that just needs to see the ball go over the fence. One site just constantly talked about how great he was, despite what everyone was watching. Having said all that he’s good enough to get drafted. I do feel bad for him because he is at least that good.

QE's injury history is most likely the reason he's slipped this far.

[Ace Recruiter]

Quinn has his warts, but no way 10 QBs are better than him.

[Ace Recruiter]

I nice dozen picks would be nice!

I’m just saying, a lack of experience on top of the knee injury being worse than what we’ve been led to believe would contribute to a fall.

[Joe D Villasenor]

On Cowboys draft coverage they just said they don’t know if Cam Williams loves football 🥴🤨

[whereiend]

Honestly our man Gerry did big Cam no favors constantly hyping him as a potential 1st rounder.

In hindsight it was ridiculous that this guy went pro after ~10 starts that all contained backbreaking penalties and pass protection busts.

Not to say that he doesn't have the raw talent, but he obviously needed to come back and play a cleaner year.

At this point, who's the most disappointed? Cam or Quinn?
