I don't get the hype around Jimmy. He seems to pretty much just be a standard better-than-average backup QB, nothing special. Flynn is more or less the same in that regard.

It's not often that BB will draft a QB from eastern illinois in the 2nd round. He's definitely got special qualities, but he is still early in his development, I think.

It's the mallet effect. he just hasn't thrown the ball enough to judge him.

Yeah that's similar to how I feel. He hasn't proven or disproven anything. I'll be watching closely during the preseason and first few games this year to see what happens.

Flynn had a similar "he's going to be a starter" hype around him until everyone saw that he was just a better-than-average backup.
