Mallett on Sports Science

He will be a really good QB if the rumors around him are false.

Considering the rumors have been around for months and there has been virtually zero sources backing it up, I'm assuming it's false until proven otherwise. I personally think he will be the best QB in the draft.

Months?? Try years. I have no idea whether it is true or not. And not having a source that has talked to the media doesn't mean things are not known by NFL teams.

Not saying he did anything. As a matter of fact on my totally worthless QB board I have him second in front of Gabbert.

I'd take Mallet over Gabbert. I think he can be a franchise QB if he goes to the right team.

if we absolutely had to take a QB this draft I'd take Mallett over any of them. don't want a QB at all though unless Mallett somehow falls to the 3rd round(won't happen). damn shame we don't have that 2nd round pick..

There has been zero corroboration of the rumors, but where there is smoke there is fire. (usually) If it is not true, it is a really sad situation, because he would be a serious consideration for #1 if the rumors were not out there.

Mellett is by far the best passer in the draft, but is not even considered a top 15 pick because of either; a habit that will preclude him from any success in the NFL, or the most coordinated character assassination in recent memory.

you would seriously have Mallett behind our line??? wow, if that's the case, i hope Otah stays healthy all year, Mallett is SO slow

would be just as concerned with how he handles pressure etc as any off field concerns.

i am more worried about pressure on the field with Mallett, that speed scares me, i fear that he will be sacked alot, other than that, he's another Cutler.

He will be a really good QB if the rumors around him are false.

i think he will be a really good QB if he's protected and his speed either improves or isnt as bad as i think it is. Mallett has the best deep arm in this draft. Sorry Newton, Gabbert and Locker, but i think Mallett's deep arm is best. Mallett has the deep arm, Gabbert is more accurate, Newton has the most potential with his size, mobility and arm and Locker in my book is the best runner and i would trust him to run an offense too. i think Locker should be picked at pick 10 by Washington, that's where i think he could fulfill his potential because Shanahan did a good job with Cutler and Plummer and those two are who Locker kinda remind me of.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
