Most of the time I wouldn't be, because most spread QBs are good "prospects" because they put up good #s.
Guys like Bradford, McCoy, etc are the product of a system. They aren't terribly accurate and they have subpar to outright weak arms. Combine that with a lack of mechanics, size, and an ability to play from under center and read a D, and you have serious problems.
Gabbert is different. He's the most physically talented QB from a spread system, maybe ever. He's probably more talented than even Roethlisberger...better natural athlete, much better arm.
He's still a guy you'll need to sit for a year and a half, IMO, but the upside is literally, limitless.
