IF We Take A QB At #10...Who Do You Want?

I'm digging through the vault and watching game tape from this past season. I'm still really sold on Ponder. Tremendous pocket presence, underrated arm. His delivery can be a bit awkward though

But as for the guys likely to be taken in the 1st round, I'm less impressed with Mallet. He doesn't handle pressure as well as I'd thought he would and his balance looks off, particularly when hurried

Watching Locker next

^ I've got to say, SS, ESPN3 is a godsend for those of us who want to go back through game video.

You're welcome

I'm using that and other video which gives some other angles

I don't feel like Mallett does any one thing better than any other QB in this draft...but as a complete package near the back end of the first round, I think you could do worse. I think it's very difficult to develop a quarterback who plays like a statue, but Mallett would benefit from a timing offense that allows him to get the ball out quick when he feels pressure.

I don't think I'd take him before Ponder, though.
