Combine QBs: Newton, Mallet & Locker Throwing, Gabbert not

[pantherfan81]

Softli also reports that concern for Blaine Gabbert is "nagging soft tissue injuries. Concern...is that he's hurt too often for next level."

Stock is falling fast.

Here's the interview on Cam saying he'll participate: link

University of Missouri quarterback Blaine Gabbert will not throw at the NFL Scouting Combine this week in Indianapolis, Gabbert agent Tom Condon confirmed Tuesday.

"Gabbert will run. He's just not going to throw," Condon said. "We haven't had any of our guys throw (at the Combine)."

Condon and the St. Louis-based CAA Football agency have represented a long line of top-flight quarterbacks over the years, including last year's No. 1 overall pick (by the Rams) _ Sam Bradford. The circumstances were different for Bradford because even if he wanted to throw at the Combine he couldn't because he was finishing up his rehab from shoulder surgery.

Gabbert, who is considered a likely top 10 pick, will throw at Mizzou's March 17 pro day in Columbia. Gabbert will still have plenty to do at the Combine, including the exhaustive medical exams that all prospects undergo, as well as the nightly interview sessions with interested teams.

Mizzou defensive end Aldon Smith, who's also represented by CAA, will participate in all Combine workouts, Condon said.

Perhaps running will be enough? :confused:

Ryan Mallett will only throw and interview at Combine. Waiting for Pro Day to do forty, agility drills, and jumps.

Gotta snort up for those drills later, too paranoid for the combine lol

Christian Ponder will throw after all.

Nobody will care that he didn't throw at the combine if he sells them in other areas and throws well at his pro day.

His question marks weren't really going to be alleviated much by throwing at the Combine anyway, to be honest... since you can't mimic game pressure there.

I think Mallet really needed too run. His arm has never been a question. His speed and footwork is.

Source from the Cam Newton camp told us tonight there's no guarantee the QB will complete a full workout despite reports

Rumor? Hmmm

Mallet reminds me too much of Chris Weinke when he has to move around in the pocket...no thanks.
