BobChalmers Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) I lived in Apex the last few years, and saw all of his games, that arm is legit. He's at least as good of a prospect as Mallett. Exactly. Oh btw, Mallett was drafted in the 4th round by the Pats to be a long-term project so... I've been saying for a while he's the next Mallett - arguably without the attitude baggage Mallett supposedly carried. That does not equal a first or second round pick.

BobbyC81 Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 pretty much sums him up. Everyone falls in love with the arm potential however thats all it is the heart and brain aint there with it. Sounds like we've been down this road before at least once (Rob Johnson? Losman?)

Mallett without his baggage,isn't a 4th round pick either.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Interview with Glennon for anyone who is interested http://www.draftcountdown.com/interviews/Mike-Glennon/Mike-Glennon.php CBF
Snorom Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Glennon is a HUGE project, and will need years Buffalo does not have time for such a huge project
NoSaint Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 That's exactly right, nobody was talking about Mike Glennon until after the Clemson game, just like Gabbert was talked until after the Insight Bowl i mean... he was a top 3 qb recruit out of high school, and put up good numbers in his junior year after wilson left..... i wouldnt say its out of left field. hes got a huge arm, is graduating from with a masters (3.8 GPA, good head on his shoulders), his brother was a qb at Va Tech he seems to not always make good choices but hes not without some resume.
4BillsintheBurgh Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Glennon is a HUGE project, and will need years Buffalo does not have time for such a huge project I hear most of the experts think this draft class is all about huge projects. Glennon has some raw skills that could be useful down the road so I think it matters where you get him. I have a funny feeling after missing on cousins/wilson we'll be taking a qb before we probably should, which could translate into taking Glennon in the second.
Dr. Trooth Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 The kid does have a big arm and throws a gorgeous pass. But for a dude that is 6'7" and have hands under 10" plus being built like a stick, with a long skinny neck, it doesn't seem to me he can absorb much contact without fumbling or getting hurt.
Superb Owl Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 The kid does have a big arm and throws a gorgeous pass. But for a dude that is 6'7" and have hands under 10" plus being built like a stick, with a long skinny neck, it doesn't seem to me he can absorb much contact without fumbling or getting hurt. Been watching a lot of him. He actually absorbs hits well, he seems flexible, not a statue like many say. He did have a faster 40 time than Wilson, Nassib and Jones. The important thing is many times he makes good plays under pressure. His quick release helps him with that. Also his ability to slide and reset quickly (see senior bowl second half). In contrast Jones takes a number of sacks just because it stangely takes him forever to get rid of the ball once he decides to throw it away.

Saint Doug Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Wow, has this guy fallen. There was a time not too long ago where people were saying he may be one of the first QBs off the board.
Solomon Grundy Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 I'm not his agent, just want to see him in a Bills uniform. http://www.nfl.com/draft/story/0ap1000000152578/article/mike-glennon-grades-out-as-a-future-nfl-franchise-quarterback http://m.youtube.com/user/NCStatePackFootball#/watch?v=YFEyhK3nQ9A
Buffaloed in Pa Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Bucky Brooks says Glennon is the franchise QB in this years draft. Bigtime arm ,can make all the throws on a rope. Lists several big games he came up with great wins and efforts. Deadly deep. Kinda reminds him of Flacco. Faster than Nassib in the forty at 6-7. Receivers dropped many balls in games this year. Typical pocket passer,which still thrives today. Quick release. Geno,. Barkley and Glennon ,Manuel are my QBs who I would be happy with.
Lurker Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 http://www.nfl.com/v...-pro-comparison Best compares to Flacco???! Whoa Bucky, step away from the crack pipe...
Solomon Grundy Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Best compares to Flacco???! Whoa Bucky, step away from the crack pipe... Lurker, Flacco didn't become "franchise" Flacco til the end of this season. When you watch video of Glennon he does have traits of Flacco. Watch the Carolina game. I think Glennon can be that guy with a little seasoning and some talent surrounding him.

Watch the Carolina game. I think Glennon can be that guy with a little seasoning and some talent surrounding him. Glennon's body type will never be confused with Flacco. Flacco's a LB playing QB...his body can take the NFL pounding. http://www.nfl.com/c...e-flacco?id=382 Glennon's a twig ready to get snapped... http://www.nfl.com/draft/2013/profiles/mike-glennon?id=2539275 Edited March 25, 2013 by Lurker
BuffaloFan68 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 If Geno Smith is available to us at 8 & we don't take him then the Jets will take him. we better be sure to take the best QB available for our new system. We should sign a WR like D. Heyward-Bey then draft the best QB available at 8, then draft a LB then go after another QB or WR with our 3rd pick.

Watch the Carolina game. I think Glennon can be that guy with a little seasoning and some talent surrounding him. I know nothing about glennon, but I think flacco is a pretty mediocre QB. He put together a nice post-season run obviously, but he's not in the top 10 (maybe 15) guys in the league, IMO.
