Bradford, the QB you point out as your top choice below, wasn't under center very much either.


No doubt.
We are all armchair scouts here.
But not being a paid scout for an NFL organization doesn't preclude me from having an educated opinion.

I picked Bradford over the other two becasue I have seen him be successful in the actual NFL, until RG III and Luck take a snap in a actual NFL game you don't know what you have in them.

Actual it does, you can have a opinion it is just not educated. If you walked into a scout's office in the NFL and said your opinion they probably laugh and send you on your way. Their opinions are educated ours are not.

It is fun to say what the Skins should do and not do, evaluate talent etc... but when the day is done none of us are experts. Unfortunately some of us on here a bit delusional to that fact, not singling you out 30Gut just saying.

The above scenario choosing between the 3 was your scenario not mine.

In your previous post you cited RGIII's limited reps (under center) as a negative.
But whether you dismiss it or not the QB that you chose as the best in your scenario wasn't under center much as a college QB.

You do understand the difference between an educated opinion and a professional opinion right?

I don't need to give my resume for people to know my opinions are educated.
People can read my opinions and decide for themselves.

If you walked into a scout's office in the NFL and said your opinion they probably laugh and send you on your way.

Maybe so but maybe they would judge my opinion based on its content rather than an assumption about my background.

Their opinions are educated ours are not

Their opinions are considered professional.
But the notion that only professional scouts can have educated opinions on football prospects is absurd.
Coaches on all levels have educated opinions on player evaluations.

It is fun to say what the Skins should do and not do, evaluate talent etc... but when the day is done none of us are experts. Unfortunately some of us on here a bit delusional to that fact, not singling you out 30Gut just saying.

If you're uncomfortable being challenged on an opinion or statement it doesn't make me or anyone else out to be an expert.
I never give my thoughts as anything other then my opinion.
But, I will support my opinions and thoughts and challenge other peoples opinions and thoughts that I don't understand or question.

That doesn't make me delusional, i'm just a dude that's passionate about football.

All this and your avatar is John Beck.

Appreciate your feedback.

"To be a professional you must be educated in your profession." ~seems to make sense.

So rather then.......I don't know........ discuss the QBs you wanna shift/change the topic and talk about my avatar?

And quibble over semantics:

"To be a professional you must be educated in your profession." ~seems to make sense.

Funny, I never saw where I said I was a professional?

Anyway, good day.
I must not know what I'm talking about because I have John Beck as an avatar.
And I'm delusional for questioning your negative assessment of RGIII based completely off of 1 game where he actually played well?
