transient Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) I think we should name him Harvey. Seems like the description of a 6 foot 3.5 inch invisible rabbit to me. I promise, no cheating. Edited March 16, 2013 by transient
4merper4mer Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 His pre draft report... Positives: Good height to see the field. Very poised and composed. Smart and alert. Can read coverages. Good accuracy and touch. Produces in big spots and in big games. Has some Brian Griese in him and is a gamer. Generally plays within himself. Team leader. Negatives: Poor build. Very skinny and narrow. Ended the season weighing 195 pounds and still looks like a rail at 211. Looks a little frail and lacks great physical stature and strength. Can get pushed down more easily than you'd like. Lacks mobility and ability to avoid the rush. Lacks a really strong arm. Can't drive the ball down the field and does not throw a really tight spiral. System-type player who can get exposed if he must ad-lib and do things on his own. Summary: Is not what you're looking for in terms of physical stature, strength, arm strength and mobility, but he has the intangibles and production and showed great Griese-like improvement as a senior. Could make it in the right system but will not be for everyone. Hmmmm.....it sounds like Brady but the thread title implies this quarterback has never cheated so it can't be Brady. Hmmmm.....I'd say Montana but isn't he older than Brian Griese so it has to be someone younger. Hmmmmm.......I think Gabbert was touted for his arm but the rest sounds about right. I'm going to say Aaron Rodgers.

How many of his jerseys do you have?

JPS Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Damn, I thought it was Mike Glennon. +1. i thought it was relevant to this year's draft.

NoSaint Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 The Brian Griese comparison is because he succeeded Griese as QB at Michigan after Griese led the Wolverines to the national championship. Griese's leadership was widely credited as a major factor in the Wolverine run (that and Charles Woodson). In fact Brady had trouble replacing Griese although he had a better arm and better accuracy. I remember reading at the time that Brady's superior physical tools were "fools gold" and that he did not have Griese's leadership skills, which was true in college. As a matter of fact, QB guru Bill Walsh though that Griese was the best QB prospect of his class which included Peyton Manning. I know, it was obvious but if your going to read it as any qb just for the hell of it, I think it was the funniest as the elder griese.
Ronin Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) Oh its Brady. Point being the talking heads don't know **** when it comes to evaluating players. yeah they hit on one or two but if they really knew something NFL teams would pay huge to have them on their staffs. It also shows most of the NFL front offices can't evaluate talent for crap. Its a crap shoot every year period. Who knows if one of these QB's can do the job or not? I know this continuing to wait till next year, or next year, or next year is why we are in this spot. While true, the number of QBs in the Draft with similar credentials that end up never doing **** are voluminous. Finding a franchise QB is tremendously difficult. How many teams have one? What, 12? Definitely fewer than half the teams. Also, how one defines a franchise QB is somewhat relative. NE, Denver, Houston?, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Giants, Dallas?, GB, NO, Detroit?, Atlanta, and as of this past season, Washington, Indy, Seattle, and SF. Of those, several will be falling off ranging from anytime to over the next few seasons. When you contrast that with the number entering the Draft every season, the odds of success are slim to none. On average, based on the above, about one/year enters the system. Some years it's more like the '83, '04, and '12 Drafts, but most produce none. This seems to be one of those years that may not produce one. see bill really is a genius Yeah, so much so that he couldn't find his way to voluntarily replacing iron feet Bledsoe with Brady, he had to have his hand forced. Then with an extremely moderate season from Brady simply lacking in stupid mistakes, he took a flyer and won out. Edited March 16, 2013 by TaskersGhost
Baba Booey Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 see bill really is a genius What is so "genius" about taking a chance on a 6th rounder, sick of Bellicheck a genius by everybody. It actually shows more about Brady's work ethic and determination. #@*&? Bill!!!!
San Jose Bills Fan Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Cannot believe the lack of respect you all show for Todd Collins. Technically it's "I can't believe the lack of respect for Todd Collins from this board." I think it was the funniest as the elder griese. Yes, the reverse logic based on the line "has some Brian Griese in him."
NewEra Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Damn, I thought it was Mike Glennon. I did too.....until it said not what you're looking for in terms of arm strength. He's got a rocket. I also never saw the "greise" mentality in glennon. Not much of a gamer in my book. I think he's going to get broken in the NFL. Dude is a string bean
