After all these tweets through OTA's and training camp. From Babb's admitted pre-training camp excitement of seeing Stanzi because he was the best QB he saw at the OTA's to reports of Stanzi at OTA's throwing balls in the dirt. From Mr. Happy, Lance Twidwell's obvious Stanzi-love (with really no explanation why he was loving on him so much) to Fescoe's apparent Stanzi-hate. From a report from someone saying that you can't tell the difference between Stanzi and Trick Shot by watching them play to Cordell aka formerdb, endorsing Stanzi compared to Cassel and Quinn and explaining in "tweet-depth" why Stanzi received his endorsement. Can't forget Nick Jacobs's seemingly fair and balanced tweets. Out of all of them, one of my favorites regarding Stanzi was a tweet by the WR he threw to in college:

DJK ‏@DJKoulianos
One Of The Most Exciting Moments In Sports Will Be When @AdamSchefter Announces Ricky Stanzi Has Been Named Kansas City's Starting QB

Maybe it's an Iowa pride thing. Maybe their friends. Maybe both. Many people have made the comment that they think a lot of Stanzi's success in college was a reflection of not Stanzi, but the talent he had surrounding him...the tools he had to work with. It is encouraging to see that Stanzi's own WR appears to have respect for him as a QB. If he felt Stanzi was a factor that held him back from accomplishing more than he could have, then I wouldn't expect a tweet like that from him, unless it is, as mentioned Iowa pride or endorsement of a personal friend despite any questions he may have in terms of his ability.

I realize that college and the NFL are on 2 totally different wavelengths, but I am pretty certain that we will never see a tweet from Dwayne Bowe where he is endorsing Cassel when they are no longer teammates. Just a hunch.

Then again, to my understanding, Larry Fitzgerald had some nice things to say about Palko on the radio last year.....so who knows?

I just thought it was an interesting tweet that may have been over-looked a bit by the non-Iowans who don't even know who DJK is.
