QuoteFrom a skill set perspective, Lance fits in with other recent first-round prospects. His size, arm strength, running ability, and big-play potential are in line with other recent first-round picks such as Pat Mahomes, Deshaun Watson, Justin Herbert, Josh Allen and Jordan Love.

As a passer, Lance definitely has next-level ability. He has a strong arm capable of making all the throws for the pro level. Lance shows the ability to fire fastballs to the sideline and has no problem airing out deep balls. Overall, Lance has good accuracy, and his deep-ball precision is very impressive. He consistently lofts passes downfield to lead his receivers over the top of coverage. Lance also shows the ability to function in the quick passing game in the short part of the field, firing some bullets to move the ball.

QuotePlayer Comparison: Josh Allen. Lance has a unique style of play and is a tough player to compare. He reminds evaluators of Josh Allen at times, but Lance doesn't have Allen's size. Lance is like a shorter version of Allen in that they have similar styles of play and are coming to the NFL from a lower level of collegiate competition. If Lance pans out in the NFL, I could see him being a quarterback similar to Allen.

I wonder if there's any interest there. He's had a couple of seasons to watch and learn the professional game. He looks like a guy that Daboll can work with.

Not until his rookie contract expires. The guaranteed 1st round money is a killer.

Football-wise, would he be a fit here for Daboll?

When you consider the 49ers gave up on him so quickly and he is still behind Cooper Rush on the depth chart in Dallas, it is hard to imagine why anyone would want him. He is a helmet full of unfulfilled promise.

The 49ers were able to take a last pick in the draft QB (Brock Purdy) and made him into a franchise QB.  What does the failure of the same organization with a high first-round pick tell us about Trey Lance?

The Cowboys clearly didn't see Lance as the replacement for Prescott, so that's a second team that got an up-close look at Lance and gave a thumbs-down verdict (Lance isn't even starting in place of Prescott).

Didn't he get hurt, opening the door for Purdy?

Shanahan has a proven system and is himself proven to help QBs.  He jettisoned Lance after drafting him for a 7th round pick.

Why do we want another QB who can't play QB? How about getting a QB that can play QB?

Cooper Rush on the bench. Trey Lance in for Dallas.

The OP was just asking without knowing he would wind up playing today. I think the case is closed on Lance. He is the poster child for it being a bad idea to play almost no games in your draft year.

Even though it's garbage time, it's an opportunity to see him live.

Tolbert never even looked for the ball.

Dallas is trash lol

Admittedly on only 6 passing attempts, but Trey Lance did worse than Cooper Rush when compared by passer rating and QBR

I tend to make my evaluations off of what I see or from someone I feel gives honest, unbiased evaluations.
