Who?

Me?

I stated that it sounds like he's drafting a QB because his description does not fit any QB in the F/A class.

So by deduction, he may be looking at a QB like Geno Smith. He certainly isn't looking at Alex Smith or Matt Cassel. At least not if he's being truthful, which i believe he is.

Look, I'm making it short and sweet for you. We're not talking about the intangibles that go into it, we're not talking about the reads on time, we're not talking about the footwork, the arm strength, the hands, all those things.

The bottom line is that guy doesn't have to the prettiest, but does he give you an opportunity to win football games and does he allow his players around him to raise their game up and go do that.


so now we're getting tebow? FML

Now, that could mean any number of things but it seems like he won't shy away from a guy with warts, as long as he's a winner and leader of men.

I see where you're coming from now. And, yeah, this seems entirely plausible to me.

It's plausible, but I still don't know what exactly it means.

:D

Does it mean that guys like Philip Rivers and Bernie Kosar, two "winning" QB's with "weird" deliveries would pass the test? That he's not worried about "correctable" things like footwork and delivery, as long as the guy is a leader that can will his team to victory?

If that's the case, and I'm not stating that it is, because he wasn't specific enough to state unequivocally, that would seem to open the door to many QB's in the upcoming draft.

The Combines can't get here soon enough for me.

He was saying, after making it short and sweet, that it's not intangibles, arm strength, etc. But he ended it with cutting himself off from saying hand size.

Interesting point, that is all.....

yeah, bolded part. Listened to a couple more times and it really sounds like he was starting to say hand size, not the hands. Not that it's really a big difference, but..... not saying it's the aliens, but it's the aliens.

See ya Cassel.

No game managers

Are we sure that wasn't Wilford Brimley?

He said there was alot of energy with Drafting McNabb and there will be with this first pick! if its at all true, there is no way we take Luke. There is absolutely no energy there with that pick! If they do draft him, its going to be Cleveland stadium with the Factory of Sadness.

He was referring to "energy" in the Eagles draft room.

Eagles fans hated the pick.

BossChief 02-08-2013 10:26 PM

Is it possible that he is indirectly taking a shot at Geno Smith with the "will his team to victory" line? Lets face it, WV was only 7-6.
