?

Nothing. I just been in the NBA is a bad product thread and the comparisons were abundant. Don't wanna go back is all.


But I agree...The physical attributes are great, but if the Q doesn't have the mental side then his physical prowess isn't as attractive.

Denarius Moore to Panthers during the draft ?!?!

Oh word.  Yeah didn't mean to bring that heated discussion in here 

.

The thing is there are so many different types of athletes that can succeed at QB.  Meaning so many good different kinds of skills that are useful (speed, size, etc.) in different ways.  And even a guy who is basically the "perfect" athlete like Luck or Cam, is great because he knows exactly how to use that athleticism.  I don't know that you can teach that.

Yeah if Teddy drops whoever gets him is probably going to get a steal. I personally think the Vikings should draft him at number 8. He would be a good fit there IMO.

Teddy + Patterson/Jennings/Rudolph + AP =

+Khalil and an overall good line (I think)

 

[651akathepaul]

So many scenarios I've gone over, but Teddy at 8 would be ideal if he drops. Up until not too long ago, he was said to go early, therefore I have been in the mode of going defense at 8 and Mettenberger later.

If they do get Teddy then I would be very content. Who needs deep ball accuracy when you got CP84?

Denarius Moore to Panthers during the draft ?!?!

I sure wouldn't oppose it

There HAS to be some money being thrown around to value and/or devalue players this time of year. It wouldn't surprise me if the kipers/mcshays/mayocks of the world are cashing in on the growing popularity of football, and agents are lobbying harder than
Halliburton bout these stupid mocks and player grades.

 

[renegade34474]

And if Teddy is there at 7 I hope Tampa pounces

There was a big controversy because Kiper shared the same agent with Jimmy Clausen. and had some absolutely ridiculous compliments to throw his way

They invited Tom Savage to the green room

 

[renegade34474]

 

[651akathepaul]

I'm intrigued by Savage.

 

[renegade34474]

Then the money is working

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

I already feel bad for Savage.

Why doesn't anybody call him AD anymore? That is his nick name and I know his initials are AP but all thoughtout college and first couple years it was AD seems to have gone away.just a thought

Former Louisville quarterback Teddy Bridgewater’s draft stock has appeared to decline dramatically in recent weeks, as a disappointing Pro Day has led to talk that he’s not the potential No. 1 overall pick that he was proclaimed to be during the 2013 season. But one NFL personnel man says that in reality, Bridgewater’s stock was never that high to begin with.

 

[stillin729]

I will say Ike Reese who is here in Philly on the radio and a former NFL player has been saying he never understood the Bridgewater hype going all the way back to 2012; maybe he is right but I liked him in 2012 but soured a bit after his 2013 season

I still would take a chance on him

 

[trueprada]

yea..i mean if a team needed a qb y not

he wont be the 1st and wont be the last to not live up to a hype

 

[Chester McFloppy]

Mark Dominik talking about not drafting a QB because of his skinny frame?

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

I miss Fred Savage
