Yo GabbaGabba's Pro Means Nosthing!


TANTRIC-NINJA

Recommended Posts

I think this article should temper your expectations of a "Pro-Day" -He still looked awkward dropping back and throwing it.

However, the biggest concern I have watching him on tape is his overall feel and instincts in the pocket. He’s a guy who doesn’t look real comfortable any time he feels a rush and fails to consistently step up and buy time for himself in the pocket. He also prematurely drops his eye level and will flush himself backward out of the pocket.

Didn't see any article from the National Football Post. However 19 threads bout the Gabbert hype machine is way too much but this is a good article that expresses concerns that are there from the regular season and career despite the pro day.

but 500 about the newton hype machine is ok?

Thanks for the link. It's like 6:25 am and I rather enjoyed getting a new link on the first page of a thread rather than sifting through insurmountable pages of garbage in the other thread. Cam can get a thousand threads and Yo Gabba only gets a mega thread, half of which people are talking about Cam anyways... I appreciate it. Thanks and don't worry if some posters are eager to come across as dicks instead of actually reply to a significant and new thread.

Also, the part where it said he's a 2nd round talent does scare me. This time last year, Jimmy was a first round taken and potential top ten pick. Maybe Gabbert is destined for the same slide, and as Jimmy showed, maybe for good reason too. No doubt the tools are there, as with Jimmy, but pocket awareness is KEY. also, it's important to be a real winner in college.

Peterson or Dareus, there's no sense in reaching for any of these QB's with the # 1 overall pick.

if you think that a guy can be your franchise's guy, then I don't believe that it's possible to "reach" for a QB. most important position on the field. if you believe that that player can be your franchise QB, then draft him.

You can't take every writer as gospel or you'll end up being pulled in a different direction every time you read a different article.

I missed where Gabbert wasn't a winner in college... Didn't he have like a 23-6 record or something... Sounds like a winner to me.

Could have gone to about any school he wanted and decided to stay home and go to a bad/average team. Nothing wrong with that.

    • Outside of cerrato, I do like our draft overall. Hard to get can't miss draft picks when you pick late in the draft
    • Very True--and I am a former HS English teacher.  
    • Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
