Re: 2012 Draft-QB Prospects (Part III)
 

[quote=SmootSmack;869562]That's the rumor. If he does, will be interesting to see how (if at all) this impacts RG III's and Landry Jones' decisions. Rumors have had them all possibly staying[/quote]

Yeah, all of the 'experts' are expecting him to stay.. If RGIII and Jones also stay that makes our picking in the top 10 somewhat irrelevant. That scenario would point to trading down, maybe a couple of times, in order to continue to build depth and would make QB in free agency or trade a reality. That scenario also sets us up for what Kyle said yesterday, building up the other positions around Rex and seeing what he can do with that in 2012. That would cause me to cancel my NFL Sunday Ticket and probably take a year off of football. I can't take another year with the HTM.

A) When did Kyle Shanahan say anything about Rex Grossman in 2012 and B)...there's still Ryan Tannehill

Shanaplan right on track.

If all those guys stay in school Foles stock is going to
Rise dramatically.

[quote=mredskins;869563][B]Really you think veteran super stars are going to want to come here because we picked a over hyped rookie.[/B] Even in my own job if a new analyst came on board fresh out of Harvard I still be like ok lets see what you can do in the real world before I start kissing the ground he/she walks on. [/quote]

Perhaps I should have qualified that statement. I think that they would want to come here to play with Luck after he shows that he has the right stuff in his first year in the NFL and if the Skins pay them enough money.

That's the only way it could work because free agency comes before the draft.

True dat.

Matt Barkley will announce today if he's turning pro and entering the 2012 NFL draft or if he's staying at USC to play out his collegiate eligibility.

You don't read back in threads, do you?

Re: 2012 Draft-QB Prospects (Part III)
 

I know this sounds kind of stupid, but why would he annouce that he will be annoucing it today. I would lean towards an annoucement that he is staying and he is probably going to annouce it in front of a bunch of students, so he can look like a hero. I hope I am wrong, plus I am using reverse psychology on myself.

Most of the time, I don't read back threads. I only focus on the current page. But since I didn't see anything pertaining to Barkley's eventual decision, I thought I'd post it. I didn't know that someone had beaten me to it.

Not stupid at all, I think he stays, he is having the presser at USC, why would he say he is leaving in front of the student body? Just to actually here the boo's, nah.

Re: 2012 Draft-QB Prospects (Part III)
 

Hypothetically speaking, let's say Barkley, Griffin III, and Jones all decides to stay. I realize you still have other QBs like Tannehill and Weeden, but do you draft a QB this season just to be drafting one? Or, do you will and deal your draft picks this year in hopes of landing a high draft pick next year - where you could possibly be a shoe in for someone like Griffin or Barkley?

Well he's having the presser in the same place that Sanchez and Bush said they would go pro

No. I don't think you wait another year
