Gabbert scores 42 on the wonderlic

Everyone remembers how great Matt Ryan was his final year of college

oh

wait

I don't give a sh*t if we get him or not, just butting things in perspective. If the FO thinks he's the guy

He was a lone star on the eagles and had them at number 2 in the nation at one point

He is too smart. Most QBs over 40 don't do well. We have to pass.

haha

I think honestly once you pass a certain point, it doesn't matter at all what your score is. A 42 is impressive, but not for any football reason (for me anyway).

Also, there is VERY little of him on youtube, that is very true. Some of us have watched his games and like him, some haven't. I certainly don't like his stats, but I like his tools and what I think he can develop into. Mind you, I wouldn't take him with the first still. :P

What more does the guy have to do? At this point he has pretty much shown he's the total package. If he was coming out of a pro style offense he would be a no-brainer at the #1 slot. Then again...there were people who thought Bradford would fail too coming from essentially the exact same system. Bradford was also completely out of football for an entire season...

This!! Well put and very true. I was a Bradford hater coming out last year due to the system he ran and the injury. I thought he was very similar to Alex Smith when he came out..... best quarterback in a poor quarterback draft. If Gabbert is on the level of Bradford and Ryan, then why can't he succeed and be the best QB in this draft. Of course, I'm anti-QB with our #1 pick since we already have a wild-card at our QB position. At the same time, if he owns his pro-day and is off the charts, I may have to re-consider at that point.

Bradford threw 50 TDs in that offense. That is more than 3x the amount of TDs Gabbert had.

Gabbert has issues with pocket presence.

Also people give him extra credit over a guy like Newton because he had to make pre0snap reads. The only problem was when his first option wasn't open or if he had even a sniff of pressure he fell apart.

That is the NFL. He will ALWAYS feel pressured. He has to overcome that to become a great QB and I am not sure he will.

BUT as I have said all along. If Hurney and Rivera love him then they have to pull the trigger.

I personally would rather have Cam

    • That hit on Stolarz was dirty was fug. Just came in and gave him an elbow on purpose to the head. 
    • Brindamour said this isn't the time of the year for making changes and therefore expect Nikishin to be a healthy scratch til at least two defenceman get injured. Yes I said two because ya don't make changes and there other guys on the roster who've played with the group in games. 
    • lol Honestly, it might sound dumb, but I've had this idea in my head of a specific picture I really want to get with him since draft night. Basically I want it to be of the two of us sitting on the floor next to each other with the picture from behind.  Ideally it would have been with us both wearing T-Mac jerseys (and me wearing an Arizona hat that has block A logo on the back of it too), but since they won't have baby versions of those for a bit and that does seem like a waste of money on something he'll grow out of in a few months, I think I'll go with this that I've found on Amazon for like 12 bucks........ I'll get this made with T-Mac's #4 but then my Nephew's first name (which incidentally starts with a T, so I've already joked to my sister that she needs to change his middle name to something with "Mc" or "Mac" in it so i can call him T-Mac lol) Just think that would make for a really cool picture for me to have of him at this age (just over 13 months now), with the two of us wearing our #4's.  It's the type of thing I can absolutely see myself getting it printed out by Shutterfly on one of those canvas like prints to hang on my wall. And seeing as they live in NYC with me in Michigan, not sure the next time I'll see him again as I can't just drive on down the street for a picture when the jersey arrives, so was hoping I'd be able to take advantage of seeing them at the end of the month to get this picture, but it would all be dependent on the jersey (and this custom onesie) being shipped in time.
