John from Riverside Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Anybody else bothered that there is NO footage of this trick shot QB PLAYING football?
Willyville Guy Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) More eye-opening, though, are his stats at Monmouth. Division III or not, he threw for more TDs than anyone in college FB history and his accuracy was in the 70% range. And that is an impressive, to borrow a phrase from our fearless leader, "body of work." Edited May 8, 2012 by Willyville Guy

Nanker Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 Is there any compensation if they are invited to camp? Nope, not really. They don't get "paid" till they get invited to and show up at training camp. They just get room and board at the tryout. Like any other QB, what happens to those skills once he gets repeatedly knocked down? I like the pickup, hopefully he does well! I also like the pickup of QB Aaron Corp. With great coaching, whatever blue chip potential that he had may return... Well, the kid DID play QB in Kallage. I think he's Harry Potter to Chan's Dumbledore.
Lurker Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 (edited) Anybody else bothered that there is NO footage of this trick shot QB PLAYING football? What do you mean? There's plenty of footage of Monmouth's 2011 season: 2011 Season Video Recap BTW, they had the top offense in D-III football in 2011... Edited May 8, 2012 by Lurker
Mark Long Beach Posted May 8, 2012 Posted May 8, 2012 What do you mean? There's plenty of footage of Monmouth's 2011 season: http://www.monmouthcollege.edu/athletics/varsity/football/recap.aspx Ah, that's a better list than I was going to post. I watched a couple of those. He's got a nice touch. Generally his throws were the best part of watching those games. Whew, looks like my drunken friends playing rugby at times. He'll have to do a LOT better job of looking off the safety though. He also needs to get rid of the ball faster. To my eyes, when plays were breaking down, he held onto the ball a long time, while not doing a great job of moving. The DE's he faced were pretty slow once they got around the corner, so he could sort of get away with it. NFL DE's will pound him into the ground if he holds onto the ball that long once protection breaks down. On the plus side, he wasn't a tuck and run guy at the first sign of trouble. But raw, raw, raw footwork on the move.

Still, he seems to see the field well, which is something you can build on...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Here ya go. C Taylor Boggs – Humboldt State RB Zach Brown – Pittsburgh DE Vince Browne - Northwestern TE Derek Buttles – Maine WR Roddell Carter – Alabama-Birmingham LB Nick Clark – Alfred CB Dominic Cook – Buffalo WR Gino Crump – Arizona FB Dorin Dickerson – Pittsburgh DE Sean Ferguson – Mississippi State WR Kevin Fitzpatrick - Marist DE Corey Hart – Alabama A&M DT Johnny Hollins – Texas Southern LB Emmanuel Lamur – Kansas State CB Byron Mulkey – Buffalo S Nick Saenz – Houston WR Derek Session - Maine DE Bernard Smith – Louisiana-Lafayette QB Alex Tanney – Monmouth College LB Jeff Thomas – Indiana DT Logan Walls – Georgia Tech Per WGR. wgr linnk Holy moly what's with all the DE and DT? I'm thinking Johnson Edwards Carrington Heard Troup and so forth may be "hearded" out the door. These guys are coming in for what basically amounts to an extended tryout. Play good enough, you might get invited back to camp. Exactement. It's sort of like a "Bills mini-Senior Bowl" Ah, that's a better list than I was going to post. I watched a couple of those. He's got a nice touch. Generally his throws were the best part of watching those games. Whew, looks like my drunken friends playing rugby at times.

But raw, raw, raw footwork on the move. Well, if they do invite him to camp he's got just the guy to talk to about what it takes to go from DIII to the NFL

Chandemonium Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 When is the last time the Bills have had any luck with a D III player contributing to the team? They have this one running back from D III who isn't too bad. I think his name is Frog Jameson or something like that. He might have just signed a new contract. I'm sure you could look it up.
Ramius Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Is there any compensation if they are invited to camp? AFAIK, if the Bills want to keep them, they will get signed to the 90-man roster.
