What reports? I've seen quite a few and haven't seen anything that even remotely hinted at that.

I second that question, where have you seen this? Links please?

Clausen won't be participating in the combine (not throwing at least) so this will be a good chance for Bradford to pull ahead in the minds of execs

This was the closest I could find

Seahawks Draft Blog: Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State

But I would add, as I believe I have mentioned here, that many scouts believe Okung lacks a certain "aggressive" quality-particularly when it comes to run blocking.

So does that mean that Bradford is throwing at the combine?

He'll do whatever I damn well tell him to do!

That is...he's expected to, as is Colt McCoy

What chu say? Isn't there like 83,448 shoulder surgeries between the two?

WTF!! why the freak not? he better have a good gosh dang reason. i question some of clausen arm strength. reports say hes got a good to adequate arm but it seems to me he has an avg to slightly under avg throwing strength.

of course the turf toe on his planting foot doesnt help him step into a throw and really get that lower body action for long throws but i still question his arm strength.

i wonder if he doesnt want to do throwing at the combine to help conceal his lack of throwing strength. just a conspiracy theory

If you're not 100%, it's best to not participate in the combine. You can only hurt your draft stock. He'll probably hold private workouts to show off that limp noodle arm.

i should probably just google it but what is clausen's injury or keeping him from being 100%?

im going to assume that clausen will throw atleast for individual workouts after the combine and maybe the ND draft workout?

to play all season then not throw when he came to indvidual workouts with nfl teams would be a red flag in my book. how can you put a down payment on something you cant even test drive?

[MTK]

He's recovering from toe surgery

^^^ sounds like clausen may be able to throw for the pro day at ND in april. i hope so, i really want to see exactly what his arm strength is. most scouting reports say hes got a strong arm but i havent seen it.

Honestly nothing jumps out here to me as far as lack of arm strength goes

Depending on the scouting report some say he's got a strong arm, others I've heard or seen said that he may not have the strongest arm for a QB. I think his arms good, probably better than Bradfords in terms of how far he can throw and how hard he can throw.
