Me personally I felt that Wilbons comparison of Newton to Big Ben was more accurate. Both are mobile big buys that are hard to bring down with big arms. Both of them also came out during their junior years and if I remember right Big Ben played in a spread system similar to the one Newtons played in. Also Young is a lot more slender and probably a bit faster then Newton. An even closer comparison for Newton might be Tebow with a little more speed and better mechanics but minus the perfect human being thing. Quote:

One scout's summary of Mallet: "Jason Campbell talent with Jeff George attitude"
Um.....

Hey SS why would you say no to cam? I'm not disagreeing with you just want your input on him.. Would you rather have locker or Gabbert? I'm still open for a QB via trade (Orton)

Right now with Cam I see a guy who has a long long way to go. He's had one season of strong play, he doesn't see the field well either in my opinion. He may be spectacular one day. Don't think I want us to wait. Locker is growing on me. Yes, he had poor showings against Nebraska and Stanford this year. But what about against other top 25 teams. Plus look at where that program was just a couple of years ago, and how they've improved-from 0-12 to a Bowl game. On the one hand you can call Locker a loser, or you can say that the Huskies have improved so much in just two years and that's in no small part due to Locker

Re: IF We Take A QB At #10...Who Do You Want?
If we couldn't trade down in the 2nd to get Ponder and another pick, yes I'd take Locker at 10

And loser isn't what i would call him, but I wouldn't call him a winner either. If I need one drive to win a game, i don't want the ball in Locker's hands. He is too inconsistent. People will probably refer to him like they do Grossman, Good rex bad rex, good john bad john. |

Re: IF We Take A QB At #10...Who Do You Want?
Only reason I believe in Locker is because Shanahan got Cutler to succeed after coming from a similar background.

Re: IF We Take A QB At #10...Who Do You Want?
I can see your point here but Cutler is a more accurate thrower but a less gifted overall athlete. I would say Locker probably has better decision making/vision too.

Re: IF We Take A QB At #10...Who Do You Want?
That's still not exactly a strong vote of confidence by saying that though...

Re: IF We Take A QB At #10...Who Do You Want?
Mallet i don't think has the mental part of the game yet but is the best of the big name quarterbacks. I would rather wait for Ponder. Sminal is like a little redskin hahaha

Re: IF We Take A QB At #10...Who Do You Want?
When I look at the results of this poll and the banter which results, makes it even more clear that taking any of these guys at ten is a mistake. I hope we seriously wait until the second b4 we consider any of these guys.

Re: IF We Take A QB At #10...Who Do You Want?
WTF do you guys see in locker? What flippin ESPN analyst waved his magic wand and put you into a lip moistening, "on your knees" type trance over this guy? This guy couldn't hit Tina Turner with Ike's fist.
His athletisism is all he's got. He is a workout warrior. Aside from that he has none of the other necessary skills nor the intangibles. Wake the f up! |
