At least now we know Dorsey's not a strict adherent of the BPA philosophy.
Clearly they think they can have their pick of the remaining quarterbacks in Round 4.
Can't win 'em all, I 'spose.
Though I won't write the pick off. The kid has serious talent.
If he can hang onto the ball and stay healthy...

They are completely banking on the fact that he will be more like he was that sophomore year when he was a monster. When he was healthy and confident that year he was running at a higher level than Lattimore. This last year was really bad, but as bad as the 2012 season was for the hogs his sophmore year was extremely impressive and he didn't even get the starting job until about 8 games into the season. His upside is extremely high.
In 2012, he became a big ole pussy running the ball because the coaching staff(John L Smith) coddled him and wouldn't allow him to get hit in the spring. He was completely unprepared by the time the season went into full swing. He looked hesitant on his feet and as a result most of his reps got taken from him by dennis johnson.
