With Possible Hire of Jones, would Willis move to WR?

Clearly, Willis would be unable to play in his system with his fumbling/int's. Does anyone else think he could be a decent slot Wr? Of course, with his hands, maybe safety would be better.

good question. Willis is good but he has a lot, and i mean a lot of issues to work out. they need a strong pocket QB in Jone's system, not a short, showboating, scrambling QB.

Actually Colt could have used Willis speed - his slow feet caught up with him vs a very athletic defensive line.

Willis will do fine with this offense - if his arm doesn't get thrown out.

Not sure Willis' arm would be a problem. They use a lot of short passes as well and expect the WRs to break tackles/run away from defenders.

You should change your name to just "Clown".

if jones is hired would you chill on Willis? he'll be a lot better than you'd think. lots of short quick passing

by **papawasamustang** » Fri Jan 04, 2008 7:45 pm

Willis is a good QB. In fact,he has the ability to be very good.
I expect big things out of him next year regardless of the coach.

by **CalallenStang** » Fri Jan 04, 2008 7:48 pm

All Willis needs is a good QB coach to help with his decision-making. If you look at what June Jones' staff has done with Timmy Chang and Colt Brennan, I think Willis will be fine in June's offense.

I wouldn't expect a position change for Willis, but Rhodes might be running pass routes in the future

Are you talking about Bennie?

Does he have a football background?
