Jaws on QB sleepers


scpanther22

Recommended Posts

ESPN's Ron Jaworski named Jonathan Crompton of Tennessee as his No. 1 sleeper quarterback for the 2010 NFL Draft.

Jaworski was also once high on current Panthers starter Matt Moore as a sleeper. Moore went undrafted. "There are some people who have him not even drafted," Jaws said of Crompton. "He's a guy ... who has real upside. He’s very fluid with his movement, can make all the throws ... He throws with great balance. To be a consistently acccurate quarterback, you have to have rock-solid mechanics." Jaws is also high on Mike Kafka of Northwestern

Seriously, were it not for Crompton, U of Tenn would have been in the running for a major bowl game and maybe even the SEC Championship. They had one of the best D's in college football and a good running game. Crompton just kept making throws to make Jake Delhomme cring.

How he's getting so much press is beyond me.

    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
    • Crosby will garner a haul in a trade. I would be reluctant to make that trade because of the following: 1. Our overall roster is awful. We cannot afford to be trading away valuable draft capital. 2. He isn't the best fit(IMO) for the scheme that Evero runs.  I love the player but it would really need to be at a reasonable deal and I think he is likely to garner an unreasonable price if he gets traded.
    • In terms of need, EDGE is currently #1. Our pass rush is near league worst levels. However, I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. BPA all day.  We do need to dramatically upgrade over Scourton, Jones, Wonnum and Umanmielen. That is likely in the running for the NFL's worst two deep. Not saying all those players are bad, but I am saying 100% of those players are 2nd or 3rd stringers.
