He plays in a spread, but he's a pass first guy. From what I've read, he's very bright, and improving year-over-year. Watched some of Baylor/TCU and he elevates his team. Outside of TCU not much competition so far, but we'll find out a lot about him over the next two weeks against A & M / Ok St. He also has games against OU and Texas left. If he plays strong the next two weeks, he's a top 10 pick. Mel has him at # 19 on the Big Board right now.

Dammit. And we have a perfectly good Stallworth for sale. Also, I feel like it should be obvious by now that Derrick Mason was the guy who bad mouthed Brian Schottenheimer.

It wouldn't surprise me if they inquired about Stallworth & we wanted more. We both run basically the same OF.

I don't really think Mason cares.

Mason, for all his talents and accomplishments, unfortunately has a bit of a reputation around the league for being a complainer and poor locker room guy

Re: Around the NFL Week 5

Every damn QB worth his salt works on his mechanics and footwork ALL THE TIME because it HELPS THEM WIN. This is analagous to a concert pianist doing his ****ing scales and appregios and whatever other etudes, exercises, etc.

Aaron Rodgers wasn't the Godgers that he is now a couple years ago. The dude spent an offseason improving his footwork and adding a throw(the skinny post) to his repetoire.

Footwork and mechanics? Over-rated!

McNabb has a better QB rating than Kevin Kolb, Andy Dalton, Sam Bradford, Colt McCoy, Josh Freeman and Rex Grossman. Phillip Rivers does not have good mechanics either, it is overrated in my opinion as well.

Rivers just has an ugly-looking motion. That does not mean his mechanics are actually bad. However, throwing wormkillers means something is screwed up with his throwing base.

McNabb has always thrown worm killers. If anyone signs him they should have saw that on film. As a Redskins fan I have saw this many of times while he played for the Eagles over the years. Anyone who signs McNabb not knowing this is either lying or they have not done their homework.
