Message: [QUOTE="KingLurk, post: 4401763, member: 11661"] I'm still at "buy" on Zion too. I think now that we aren't playing very good P5 teams the second half of the year, there's gonna be more deep balls. Hard to throw a deep ball when someone is covered. He's still not making deep throws like we saw in his recruiting videos but in those videos his receivers were getting tons of separation. He certainly needs to work on holding on to the ball/not fumbling a bit and also a couple times he needed to make a throw out of bounds to avoid a sack, but he's doing a good job of knowing when to throw and when to run and when just to take a 2 to -2 yard outcome rather than get drilled (he did get hit a bit last game one time when he tried to stretch it out too much). Also, for the most part, he's been smart enough to throw to the sticks on third down (mostly)... that's something that QBs typically develop pretty late - but this is also having a competent offensive coaching staff that draws up plays to get first down yardage... even in the NFL I see teams screw this up.
