Quarterbacks have been the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft eight of the past 10 years and there is speculation that the Carolina Panthers are seriously considering Missouri’s Blaine Gabbert in the 2011 draft. Buffalo fans should be rooting for Gabbert to wow the Panthers in the next few months. If he goes to Carolina, the Bills would have a shot at Auburn defensive tackle Nick Fairley or Clemson pass-rushing defensive end Da’Quan Bowers.

Just speculation. It looks like the Bills area wants defense 1st rd.

Jimmy is far uglier. Gabbert is at least passable. He would bring up the ugly ratio to semi respectable.

This should be a part of all QB's evaluations.

weren't you the guy who was saying that moore should be the starter because he looks so good and kind of got hung up on his looks?

not that there's anything wrong with that.

No, I said he needs to be brought back if we drafted Luck because the stable of Luck, Clausen, and Pike was far too ugly to be the depth chart of an NFL team. Moore did win Charlotte's sexiest man award so it would bump up the ugly meter to decent.

He doesn't have to start, just be here. I also suggested Kyle Boller as well as some others. Boller just married former Mrs. California.

Now that Luck is out of the picture it's not as pressing of a need. Also, I'm sure Pike will be gone so the only ugly left now is Clausen. We can overcome that.

In the other thread I did preface it all with no homo though so it's fair game.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
