thank you for responding, i'm trying to get a frame of reference for his "recovery". i think his range is roughly 40 yards right now. i can throw 50 yards on my best day and i stopped growing when i was in 7th grade.

My guess on the 80 yards club would be Elway, Cunningham (i recall seeing him throw it 78 at the QB challenge) Mike Vick and Kyle Boller.
But it wouldn't surprise if Culpepper could chuck it 80 before his knee got trashed.
Yeah, my guess would be 60 yards club for PM.
I got no clue on how to even guess at what his range is right now.
Every summer I throw with my nephew who plays at Olde Mill and my buddy who plays semi-pro.
I can throw it around 45-50 yards, used to be able to throw it 55-60 before I tore my rotator cuff.
I had a buddy in college that could throw 65+ yards baseball player that got a try out with the Marlins.
If he beamed the ball at you, you could hear it hissing.
