Sell me on Mike Glennon

[SNR]

Right now I don't see anything about the guy that I like.

I haven't watched any more than about 2 minutes of live game footage. I've seen a bunch of highlights of his throws on youtube.

I want to like the guy. I want him to be good so people will stop bitching about how supposedly terrible this year's QB class is, but every time I watch something of his, I get turned off. He's 2nd round material at best to me that will (possibly) get taken in the top 10? Some people even have him as the top QB off the board?

That's pure insanity to me.

Tell me/show me stuff about Mike Glennon that will change my mind. I promise to withhold all preconceived notions about the guy in this thread for the purposes of trying to like him.

Based on the stuff I have watched so far, no. He's NOT better than Geno Smith, and he won't ever be. But I'm tired of shitting on him when everybody is talking him up as potentially a good pro QB.

If we got a OC in here that would utilize Geno's quick release on slants and let the WR's get some YAC across the middle, we would have a good offense.

Curls are better.

RunKC, I've asked you this many times...in different threads. You havent responded...

What is your opinion on what we should do? Tell me your GM, HC and QB. Prove your worth.

in this game, glennon's thrown half as many ints as smith threw all year...probably the snow

i'm old school, but not throwing it to cbs is a skill i value

That's called "throwing the receiver open."

It's, like, kinda important in football.

[O.city]

Run's gotta be like 14. I've seen him pimp Geno, hate Geno, pimp Wilson, love Glennon, knock Geno.

he doesn't throw ints because he doesn't throw it to the other team's CBs

he also throws the prettiest, most accurate deep ball in college...

but your boy glennon looks like a real piece of shit, so congrats

Geno's job is to get the ball to his playmakers. These 2 players are playmakers.
You are ****ing idiot if you think that Geno should be throwing deep balls every ****ing play.

PS: you want deep balls? Go watch some highlight reels.

A kid with solid tools, ( footwork is solid, arm solid, not over powering, his lone mechanical problem is his long wind up delivery, not compact at all )a project that has career back up all over it unless a good QB coach can get more out of him.

Outside of the three int's everything else had been solid. But I only saw one of the int's.

Do you realize how ****ing stupid that sounds?

Maybe, didn't come out the way I wanted to say it, phone was ringing here at work. The one I saw of the 3 was under thrown.... can not comment on the other 2. Not aware if the WR's tipped them, etc. Several throws I have witnessed were solid, on the #'s only to have his WR's miss them, unable to catch for whatever reason, the delivery was there.

A few of the out patterns I saw were money, I have only seen 2 balls so far badly thrown.

To be fair here, Glennon is better than many on here will give him credit for. It will never happen, but I would love to have him as our back up behind Geno.

If you didn't see everything then don't say everything is solid.

I will take him as a backup.


That's what good teams do: They groom late round backups to trade for better picks.

If you can get Glennon as a third/forth round pick, thats great. But the big knock on Glennon for us Geno Smith fans is that morons like Kiper are saying that he is the best QB in the draft and should go #1. Then you have all of the sheep that listen to Kiper believe him without even watching any tape.
