Aaron Murray has a lot of things to like. He put up great numbers in the best conference. He has very good accuracy when he concentrates and sets himself. But Aaron Murray also lacks several things that guys like Brees and Wilson have, namely ice in their veins and the ability to make something out of nothing. Without the ACL, he wouldn't have been a 1st round pick. Dozens and dozens of scouting reports aren't wrong. |

Kind of like putting the cart before the horse to worry about a wedding before a career, especially one that could be as lucrative as an NFL QB. |

Yeah, they're not in the top tier, but these guys could throw accurate passes 50 yards in the air. That's beyond strong enough. Hell, Montana could throw a football 50 yards in the air when he was twelve. |

I honestly thought Murray would go mid-to-late 3rd round. I think we got exceptional value, and the upside is huge while the risk is minimal.
at worst, we keep him for a few years and cut/trade him at best, he becomes a starter at some point. great pick IMO

this place melted down with the thought of drafting Foles...
I would say less than 2% of the people here wanted him... Now you have people blowing him... This place never ceases to amazing you with stupidity. |

I keep hearing this back and forth about his noodle arm - but does anyone have video showing his inability to make certain throws? Because scouting reports I've seen have stated that he is able to make all the Pro Style throws, and Georgia ran a Pro Style set offense. There was even talk about how familiar with the terminology when the Chiefs interviewed him.

serious question; what are the thoughts on Brady's arm strength. I wouldn't consider it a gun by any means.

Some of his boundary throws (like out routes) can take a long time to arrive, which makes him more susceptible to picks at the NFL level. But his biggest problem is mechanical and can be corrected. If he doesn't get his base set right, he tends to put a lot of balls short and in the dirt and stuff like that. The bottom line is that this is Chiefsplanet. There's a contingent that thinks he's going to be the #1 starter in 2015 and the next Trent Green and there's a contingent that thinks he's midget garbage. The simple fact is that neither of those things are really true. He's a good value pick. He definitely has starter upside but his more probable fit is as a long-term backup QB in this league. |

In the 2013 draft, he might have been the first QB chosen. Quote:
