2nd thought about Glennon

[ROYC75]

Having a 2nd thought about the Long Necked Goose here guys ..... Not to change my desire to have Geno at # 1, but this UNC game showed me more of Glennon that I wasn't aware of. To be fair to Glennon, I really haven't given him to much credit and this game was a reason why I have a different opinion of him.

He has poor receivers, guys with stone hands. Now a lot of this could be the heat behind his throws, but the accuracy is there. He has a cannon for an arm and fits the prototypical style under center pocket passer in the NFL.

If the kids has it upstairs, he's going to move up the draft charts if he has a better than average combine, long neck and all.

Just a few things to watch and see here on this video......

1:30 Nice throw
2:30 Back to Back over the middle, taking what the D allows
3:05 , a very nice pass
3:55 ...again
4:25 nice throw
5:20 a BOMB ! 60 + yards, roll out of the pocket allows the receiver to break away and a perfect hit in stride.
Funny the commentator says a little half roll by the receiver when it was a fly pattern / or go route which ever you wish to call it.
6:20
6:30
6:57
10:12 Perfect long ball in stride
10:35 Another perfect long ball in stride

Rest of the video was a lot of bad passes as well as stupid throws.

For the most part I came away with a different view of Glennon. A good QB coach can work with this kid. I came away with the feeling he has more upside than downside.

The kid will go 1st round for sure, depending on how he grades at the combine, no worst than the 4th or 5th QB taken.

Now Glennon will throw at the combine and I do like what I see in this kid. He is tough and stands in the pocket and not afraid to thread the needle even IF they are errant throws and decisions at times. And that can be corrected by identifying more accurately what he sees over time. Some of you say he doesn't have the "IT factor". By watching his body language and demeanor not to mention his strong arm this kid is extremely competitive, looks very confident and very aggressive even when he was down 25 to 7. This kid didn't even bat an eye and kept playing like the game was tied the whole time and exhibited good short term memory when he messed up and kept right on being aggressively competitive.

Now the real question here is, what would have a lot of people on this board said about a video game clip on a no name kid like Tom Brady back in 99 that was taken in the 6th rd ???? Get my point ?

I like this kid. Not for our first pick of course BUT I really like him because he has the "fire in the belly to win" with all the raw talent to be developed even better.

Good find ROY !!

I have not seen Glennon, and I am not going to form an opinion on one video here.

I do know, however, that you are one of dumbest ****ers here, so any opinion you have will sway me the other way.

I think there's a lot to like in that video. But I wouldn't take Glennon as the "main guy". Developmental guy.

Look, we are not taking him at # 1 nor do I want to, but no way he last till 3rd Rd, just no way.

My money is someone will pull the string mid to late 1st Rd.

Only way this happens is if his game tape is consistently good for the whole year and he shows off his cannon arm with razor accuracy at the combine and then the draft pimps(Mayock, etc....) start slobbering all over this guy in order to raise his stock.

This is what happened to Cutler and Boller basically.

Dude, I am so sorry. I forgot that your football opinion is the 'end all' and we all need to wait for your final analysis b4 we can all comment so that we can all fall in line with the 'Great Curdling Milkman Swami of Football .

Sorry I got out of line.

Merry Xmas to you as well

Guys like Glennon who haven't really done shit in college and who are pretty inaccurate for their entire career and who get rattled way too easy.

****ing Kyle Boller could throw an 80 yard pass on his knees. That doesn't mean he wasn't going to shove the football up the other teams ass because he had the drive and will and quick release and pocket presence and accuracy. Kinda like Geno. Just saying...

Like I said...... you make my point.

I think accuracy is the most important aspect. Most QBs who don't have accuracy in college won't have it in the NFL.
