Matt Barkley Files NFL Paperwork

[Titty Meat]

Milk you said that scouting report sounds like Trent Green. If Barkley puts up Green like numbers for 10-15 years is that considered a good pick at 4?

I don't believe a franchise QB is necessarily defined by numbers, but rather by what he does at the most critical junctures of the games that mean the most.

I was never comfortable with Trent Green in the clutch, but to be fair he never really was tested that often.

What I do know is that a QB who doesn't have the mental makeup and talent to perform in regular season games without a RB who defenses key on is not a guy I want to "lead" my team in the playoffs.

Actually yes. For comparison...I personally dont believe guys like Bledsoe or McNabb belong in the Hall, but they both were worthy of being picked where they were picked.
