The RSP Cast discusses Bill Walsh’s perspective on quarterback evaluation and how Matt has arrived at similar conclusions after 15 years of tape study.

Bill Walsh was a titan of football — especially evaluation and development of players. This week’s podcast discusses how Patrick Mahomes would have fit what Walsh sought from a quarterback — even if not on a conventional level.

It also includes excerpts from my scouting report on Mahomes that touch on wide-ranging thoughts on how many NFL organizations take a backward approach to quarterback evaluation (which is more driven by front offices than scouts). I also share why I disagree with the consensus analysis that Lamar Jackson is a bad quarterback prospect who is on the verge of failing out of the NFL.
