I went back and watched the Mallett PC, media is full of...

poo. They badgered him and he finally had enough. He told them 5x he was going to discuss that with each team and not at this media session. They kept on and on and on after he told them no and wanted to talk about the rest of the stuff.

He will be asked why he left the podium in his team meetings and he will tell them the truth and they will be fine with it.

He lost his cool. Part of the job is dealing with the press and maintaining professionalism. It may be overblown, but it will cause GM's to compare him to Ryan Leaf.

You know I have been kinda weighing if he was Ryan Leaf to be honest. I just dont know. Do I think there was a drug problem, yeah I do. Being in Oklahoma we get tons of that info from over there at UofA and yeah I think there WAS an issue last year.

From what I saw he was patient for a while with them till after the 5th different guy hammered him and no one would ask about anything else. Sure he needs to get better at that, but I am torn. I really can't blame him.

I will say because of Leaf you can bet there will be clauses in his contract for issues like that.

BTW did anyone see Cam interview him? It was actually pretty funny, they had a good time with it.

If the reporters got him flustered and unfocused, what do you think GM's are wondering about in regards to opposing players and defenses?

Honestly? all they see is 10" hands, 6'6 and can throw the ball out of the stadium. they will work on the rest. Come on Zod you know how this works.

He could be a STEAL!! Especially of the rumors about him are false. He can make throws right now that 50% of NFL QBs can't make. I like Mallett's abilities a lot.

The train wreck stuff was over the top IMO but it wasn't a smooth presser either.

nope the attitude may be a Red flag and I do have leaf concerns with him. From a pure football standpoint, has all the size, arm strength, touch, spiral etc you would ever want. When he gets rushed he freaks some so that needs work. But if this kid has an attitude issue then pass.

A few ears ago I'd be inclined to agree with you, but Jamarcus and VY not only busting out but flat out emberassing and wrecking images of their respective franchises may have a bigger overall effect on the premium of off field composure for NFL executives now. Those two not only screwed themselves, but seriously hurt the raiders and titans, and alienated coaches and fanbases alike. No other team in the NFL would want to go through that again. That and conjured images of Ryan Leaf will undoubtedly have a huge effect on Mallet's draft stock. The ball is in his court, and he's not handling it well at all.

I wasn't suggesting we take him. Sorry I didn't make that clear. I am on the Cam/Gabbert or no QB at all train.

If these red flags are false or overblown, he could be a great QB.

When I said trainwreck I was referring to his presser not his red flags.

Agree with Zod, if Joe Blow the blogger or reporter can get in his head what's Ray Lewis, Brian Urlacher, Suh going to do?

difference is he couldnt just use his play in the presser to shut them up. hell chris johnson isnt the most well spoken guy but his play on the field is all he needs to shut people up.

the additude he supposedly displayed to one team with why he will succeed is an issue: cocky answers and a simple look at the stats...... weak sause. if thats it, The Golden Calf of Bristol should be racking up nfl records as a qb, cause in college thats what he did. dumbass i want more than i did it in college answer. why are you going to be a star? simple good answer:" i am going to put in even more time, work harder in the wieght room, and live in the film room to surpass what i did in college. i am going to out work everyone to maximize my tallent." but no he came off as an ass and a look at my stats.

as getting flustered for constant questions about drug use getting him to walk out, whoopie. if thats all fine, he isnt a public speaker he must be doomed like CJ. oh wait.

    • Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......
    • You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.    
    • THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
