Re: 2012 QB Class

What's with Tannhill? I wouldn't mind him in on the second or third day but QB's with such little experience don't usually fare well at the NFL level. Remember this is a guy that spent the first 30 games of his college career playing receiver.

Re: 2012 QB Class

Rumor has it that RG III might stay another year attending law school. This dude is "super smart" (yes, I quoted Gibbs) and is an amazing talent. I have seen him play twice in person vs. Texas and he is a freak. I too think he would fit nicely in the Shanny system.

Re: 2012 QB Class

I have not looked into it enough to know yet which guy I like, but what I do know is that Shanny & Allen better be prepared to trade up to secure their guy this year. There is no more time to wait around hoping our franchise QB falls into our laps...

You have made this argument before. And you are absolutely right. We need to go all-in on a top-notch signal caller, price be damned.

Re: 2012 QB Class

I have been hyping up Kellen Moore since last year. I think he could play in the pro's, but like Kiper said before, Ty Detmer, Colt Brennan, Ken Dorsey (?), they were all good college QB's and flopped in the NFL. I could easily see Kellen being the next Kurt Warner as much as I could see him being the next Ty Detmer.

Tale of the Tape: Breaking Down Kellen Moore's Future as an NFL Quarterback | Bleacher Report

I've read a lot of articles on this. I just think that when its all said and done, whether Shanahan/Allen like him or not, they're not gonna draft him and him only as the next starting Skins QB. I would see them drafting a Nick Foles/Tannehill in the first and Kellen in the 5th type scenario, but I couldn't see us doing a G/MLB/CB 1st, G/MLB/CB 2nd, Kellen 3rd type scenario...Although I would.

Re: 2012 QB Class

I'm all for getting 2 QBs in next year's draft.

We had a few of those guys come in a few months ago and they ran some drills. If the game was all about passing drills, I'd probably take Nick Foles 10 out of 10 times. But when he's in an actual game, I'm just not overly impressed.

It's settled then Foles and Moore 2012!!

Seriously though, I'll have to go back and watch tonight's game. But like I said he came to campus with Matt Barkley, and-jeez I'm drawing a blank on the other guys-I want to say Ryan Lindley and some other dude. Anyhow, Foles showed the strongest, most accurate arm of the three. Easily

At this time , things look good for the Skins , as the QB class has a number of possible NFL starting qb's . If we take a qb in rd 1 or 2 , and Moore does fall into rd 4 , I would like us to take him also , hard to see him lasting that long .

Re: 2012 QB Class

Getting Barkley and Kellen would be best case scenario for the Skins.

Re: 2012 QB Class

I think part of the reason foles isn't getting much respect from the scouts (or hype I should say) is because he plays on a bad team, whose a bottom dweller in their conference, much like Jake Locker with washington (the only difference is that Locker was hyped up whereas Foles isn't because of Luck and Barkley)

Re: 2012 QB Class

Top prospects IMO:

1. Luck
2. Barkley
3. Foles
4. Jones
5. RG3
6. Moore
7. Cousins
8. Tannehill

First 5 listed are very legit 1st round talent.

Re: 2012 QB Class

Haven't watched any OK football, but has Landry Jones regressed? I thought most analysts considered him just behind Luck.

There's alot of football left to be played this year. My guess is we'll draft in the 13-17 range. If so, we could potentially move up to a top 5 or 6 and the cost wouldn't kill us. It helps that the worst teams don't need qb's.

Indi, Car, St Louis don't need a qb but each could and might take Luck. I don't think Carolina would but Indi and St Louis might.
