PS 56 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 As a Bills and USC fan, I was really intrigued by this signing. I knew of him (and his bad luck) at USC. He was, in my humble opinion, a pretty good quarterback. Truthfully I always liked him better than Matt Barkley. I hope his luck changes under Chan. Here is a link to a story on him that appeared in the Orange County Register... http://www.ocregister.com/sports/corp-351049-lineburg-game.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 (edited) Tough to evaluate him at this point... At least he wasn't totally under the radar Edited April 30, 2012 by Lurker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopreme Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I got a good feeling about this guy. Could be a Matt Flynn or better yet, Tom Brady. He is in a good position to learn under Fitz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteski Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I see a bit of Joe Montana and Trent Edwards in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I don't follow college football, I never heard anything about him before we picked him, and I've only watched game footage of him from what was posted here (highlights of his game against Towson last year). That said, I'm severely underwhelmed by the guy. He didn't look terribly sharp on the reel we saw, and his record at Richmond (8-straight losses to end 2011) leaves me scratching my head. Perhaps he's a project guy, but in some ways he seems to defy the Nix formula. I'm far from infallible when it comes to evaluating professional football talent, and I'm quite fine with ALL the picks from this past weekend, but in this case, I need to be sold...

The one thing that keeps coming up about him, is "Leadership" "Character" and persaverence so I think that makes him a Nix guy. Remember the bar is Tyler Thigpen and Levi Brown; I'm thinking Corp, a one time big time college QB recruit, will be given every opportunity to earn a roster spot and a spot on the PS.

Kellen Moore was picked up by the Lions & given what the Lions have come from i'd say he would have been worth it to pick him up as a UDFA more so than a guy that never got mentioned in any way through out the draft .. I think Buddy is doing a great job so far but sometimes he puts out these head scratchers that i just don't get ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 To me he looks somewhat slender and skittish with a weak arm who telegraphs floundering passes too high to his defenseless covered receivers against inferior competition to get them plastered. But he has a lot of promise if he can eliminate all of those things and grow a third arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he has a lot of promise if he can eliminate all of those things and grow a third arm. While new QB Coach David Lee is supposed to be a wizard in correcting faulty mechanics, I don't believe he's capable of performing limb transplants. I guess this does not bode well for Corp. How do you pronounce Corp? I would guess just as it's spelled… like corpse without the s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1B4IDie Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Sounds like a lot of hocus pocus to me. Sounds like the opposite of an Andy Dalton type, a guy who just flat-out wins. Yeah I'm not saying he is a sure thing. I'm just saying High Charachter, Pete Carroll recruited at USC, beat Matt Barkley a 2013 1st rounder for a starting QB, why wouldn't you give him a shot as an UDFA?

I think Buddy is doing a great job so far but sometimes he puts out these head scratchers that i just don't get ?? I said before the draft, drafting a QB under 6'0" is a stupid waste of time and that Kellen Moore is not nearly as talented as Michael Vick, Doug Flutie or Drew Brees and all 32 teams concurred on Kellen Moore yet some people are still confused why an team doesnt want a QB that is not tall enough to ride the rides in the NFL. Amazing. 31/32 teams concurred about the 6'0" aspect with the lone exception of the Seattle Seahawks. The same franchise that traded a pick for Charlie Whitehurst and drafted another pipsqueak in Seneca Wallace. Newsflash. Russell Wilson can't see over NFL lineman nor can Kellen Moore neither will be successfull NFL QBs. Wilson because of his athleticism has a chance to not lose a game as a backup but that's about his ceiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
