Our LT: Laurent Duvernay-Tardif

Sounds like a great prospect at a low position.  I am sure he is on Gettleman's watch list regardless of whether we went to the workout or not.

 

We snagged Gaydosh last year why not this guy.

 

BTW not everyone goes to the DRAFT section because people like to post here.   Who really cares whether it is over there or not.   If management decides to send all of these over there than I would go but otherwise I like to do my reading in here.    Stop whining about something so trivial.

Pro days are nice and all, but teams will have an opinion based on game film.  Private visits can show teams injury progress, player character, etc., but teams aren't going straight off of a few sprints and bench press reps.

Which once again begs the question, "why even have a separate section labeled draft"?

 

Just put it all in here and forget about it

 

It takes all kinda people to make a forum go 'round.  You have to make allowances for the persnickety.

This guy is an absolute beast. My good friend plays QB for St.Mary's University and was able to see Duvernay-Tardif play this past season and said that he was the best athlete/football player he's ever seen. The impressive thing is he's in med school and has little time to practice during the week but yet he was still able to dominate come gameday.

 

His workouts/one-on-ones are impressive but I havn't seen any game tape, but based on the fact that several teams were at his pro day a couple of days ago, including the Cards GM, must mean something. Hard to judge a CIS guy going to the NFL but if he's there in the later rounds then I wouldn't be opposed. Everything I've heard has been positive

All indications suggest Duvernay-Tardif will become the first Canadian collegiate player since Akiem Hicks in 2012 to be drafted by an NFL team. Duvernay-Tardif’s projected to be selected on the final day, somewhere between rounds four and seven.

 

Should he somehow slip through the cracks, he’ll almost certainly be signed, quickly, as a free agent.

 

( “I expect him to be drafted on the last day,” said Chad Speck, Duvernay-Tardif’s NFL representative. “If he’s not drafted, he would sign as a free agent fairly quickly. I feel very confident saying that." )

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
