Pure Bull poo. the ONLY concern on Bradford was the ONE shoulder seperation he should have had fixed when it happened and held off till he got it smacked again vs Texas. When his doc signed off on it and he had his pro day there were NO concerns anymore what so ever.

I wish people would quit trying to support taking a pooty QB in a down QB year by making comparisons to guys NONE of the QB's in this draft can touch. The only QB worth a damn stayed in school, now fans are reaching badly to take whatever is available JUST to take a QB.

Um there were people who argued Clausen was the better pick prior the draft. Plenty of people actually.....that died down some once the Rams made it clear who they would be taking and people moved on

Hurney also said he hasn't heard any of the negative personality stuff Nawrocki said in his scouting report on Cam Newton... and he hopes he has better access to NFL scouts and other sources than Nawrocki does, pointed out that Nawrocki's #1 job is to sell magazines.

LMAO. But Scot worked so hard on behalf of Narwocki. He will be so dissapointed. LOL.

Best Post of the Week.

People were sold on Sanchez, Leinart, Stafford, Smith, Carr etc...

Big ben and Flacco were LATE round developmental picks that blossomed early under ideal circumstances.

Ryan was the only top five QB to succeed early AND often in recent years. Bradford, I'm not sold on as of yet (see NFCW teams).

Could you clarify LATE round?

Not the top 10 in the first round. When you go for 'THE' guy, you make a splash in the top 10, top 5 usually...i.e. the Cam crowd or even Luck folks earlier.

That's not to say you don't draft a guy in the first round outside the top 10 you don't think they aren't capable of starting, just typically not the day 1 starter.

ESPN had Big Ben the number one QB in that class. Matt Ryan was no sure thing at that is exactly why the Dolphins passed on him.

Big Ben had negatives agianst him, the only real positive was his arm. He played at a small school, he isn't exactly mobile and didn't play top competition. I believe he played in a spread offense and several

years ago, that was a huge red flag.

Ryan's knock was he didn't have a big arm.

Also, some talking heads at ESPN may have had Ben #1, but Ryan was rated the best QB on most boards.

we had a lot of people at Quinn's pro day but apparently we did not talk to him at all which is interesting.

Rivera spent a ton of time talking to Fairley. Very possible he has slid off but he spent as much time talking to him as Newton. Must have seen something they didn't like...

rivera's been to amukumara's pro day but there is no way we take him #1 overall I don't think.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
