fall camp last year dekkers outshined purdy. its well established.
I don't think there's really anything to talk about. Dekkers is clearly the guy and there is no reason to give anyone an update on him.
This is the thing that has me very optimistic. Would Xavier Hutchinson come back if he didn't have a ton of confidence in dekkers? He saw him in practice every day last year. I think he's excited at the arm talent.

He has been talked about a lot, but I'm guessing they don't want to put undue pressure on him beyond what he already has.
Aiden Bouman transferring out would also seem like a good sign that Dekkers is legit.
Dekkers will be better than Purdy. He beat out the other 3/4* QB from his class and made him transfer.
From what I have seen is that he runs har, throws hard, and plays with toughness. If he struggles, they will find someone else.
We will hear more throughout camp.
There’s just not a lot going on right now.
With that said, perhaps more than any other position, you don’t really know what you’ve got at QB until the game is live.
Do you want our coaches to say he will be great/bad because of what they’ve seen in practice? Just not logical

Just my opinion, but I think he'll do just fine. So much of it depends on other players, though. Do we have a running game that opponents have to respect? Do we have WRs that can get open and also stretch the field? Is the protection OK? Are there TEs that step up and be that safety valve?
I believe that Dekkers has a big arm that can make deep throws. He's gained the trust of the coaches and players. I also think that he'll be a real threat on zone read as long as the coaches allow him to keep it. That said, if we ask him to do the same things that Purdy did, he's being set up to fail. He's not going to be as accurate as Purdy with the short to medium passes. Play to his strengths and if the rest of the offense steps up around him, he'll be every bit as good as Purdy in his own way.

Same as we always call for: Tiller.
Tiller, the answer is always Tiller
Not trying to say anything negative about Campbell, but I don't really listen to his press conferences and interviews. He's so guarded in what he says that you can't really glean much from it.
This contrasts with, say, TJ, where he'll tell you just about everything.
I have very few concerns. Only concern is that there isn't much depth behind him. If there were concerns I doubt it would essentially be his job to lose
That's the kind of buzz I was hoping for. Didn't catch it so thanks.
Aidan Boumann is not as athletic or talented as Dekkers. Dekkers has more raw physical talent than Purdy. Lots of potential.
You’re joking, right?
If anything, they aren’t “excited”, they’re confident.
Guess which one I’d rather have?
