But just like 99.9% of this board, I have zero clue what the NFL Coaches and GM's are saying or thinking about either... But as a fan of this team since 1988, I have zero clue on what it takes to build a championship team or develop a QB. I can tell you exactly how to build a 9-7 team and how to give the fans Hope... But a Championship? Not a clue... This place is going to meltdown, server shutdown, suicide options, when the draft actually takes place regardless of whom is drafted... |
It's pretty hard to judge a QB when he only throws the ball 15 times or so. And as we all know, anyone can look good when there isn't defenders in their face, and they are standing there weilding the football in tshirts and shorts.

Sanchez sharp in NFL Combine passing drills
Posted: February 22, 2009 Russ Lande Sporting News INDIANAPOLIS -- Wide receivers gave teams an opportunity to evaluate their talents in Feb. 22's workouts at the NFL Scouting Combine. They weren't alone. Here's a look at how other players helped or hurt their value: Quarterbacks Southern Cal's Mark Sanchez helped himself in passing drills and tests. He showed a quick, compact delivery and release. He drove into his passes and the ball exploded out of his hand. His throws had good velocity and a tight, clean spiral. With Georgia's Matthew Stafford choosing not to throw, Sanchez proved their competition to be the draft's top quarterback is far from over. Teams were impressed that Sanchez decided to throw and did not look nervous or anxious. West Virginia's Pat White was impressive as an athlete and showed that he has the quickness, burst and ability to contribute at running back or wide receiver. White was much better throwing the ball than people expected after an inconsistent week at the Senior Bowl. Running backs Virginia's Cedric Peerman showed quickness, acceleration and speed, which teams had questioned before the Combine. He ran the fastest 40 among the running backs, which is more impressive because he is well built and muscular with good all-around skills. Wide receivers Maryland's Darrius Heyward-Bey could benefit from Nicks' injury. He had a strong day and likely jumps into the late first-round slot Nicks filled. Heyward-Bey is tall and well built, but his eye-opener was his 40-yard dash time -- the fastest among wide receivers. Scouts times ranged from 4.28 to 4.33. He also excelled with a 38.5-inch vertical jump and a good broad jump. Heyward-Bey showed the quick burst of acceleration and elite playing speed he flashed in college. Teams now are more confident he will develop into a big-play receiver. |
Bey was always getting drafted before Nicks so I don't really understand that.
