'refresh' works quite well actually.

I can delete it I just have to get an edit post URL and manually type in that post's number. give me a second.
*EDIT* Fixed, dry those eyes. |
This read comes off pretty well for Glennon, whats not to love about elite arm talent? can he be coached out of the turnovers?
Most of what i've read around this place hates the guy, but why is that? a tall kid with a cannon arm? that doesnt sound too bad. |

His arm is so strong that he routinely throws 10-yard outs in the dirt, 8 yards in front of the receiver. His accuracy in the 10-30 range is extremely suspect. |

A number of teams have said that Glennon just isn't a real vocal guy, either. It's like he doesn't have a personality in the huddle.
I get that when I see interviews with him. It's just that awkward neck of his ummming and uhhhhing at every question, not sounding real smart or like he has any clue what the **** is going on. |

He's a 'lanky' tall, which makes for an odd mis-mash of moving parts and a delivery that's not the most repeatable. As a consequence of an erratic delivery, he doesn't always know where the ball's going (but by God, it gets there fast). He's the kind of kid that could grow into his size and become a decent passer with some coaching. But he's just not a very good athlete so I don't have much confidence in him ever truly growing into that length and developing that repeatable delivery that would allow him to improve his accuracy enough to be a legitimately good starting QB. |

Either you're accurate with the ball or your not. Troy Aikman's biggest attribute coming into the NFL was his accuracy. Same with Joe Montana. |

If you're a C- passer, you can become a C passer. C+ passer, you can get to B-. You can improve your accuracy in the margins by quieting your mechanics, learning the proper footwork and simply becoming more routine in your delivery. But yeah, biomechanics are what they are. The ability to repeat your delivery is going to be something that you're either very good at, or you aren't. Someone like Glennon I just do not think is going to develop that ability, though he's such an odd physical specimen that he's a slight exception to the general rule. It's the most important element to an accurate passer and it's one that people just don't think about. Your body needs to do exactly what you're expecting it to do every single time. When it doesn't, everything goes to hell. If your body isn't wired for muscle memory that is that precise, you're just not going to develop that kind of consistency. |
He certainly IS a gangly looking mfer, it makes sense that a build like that combined with average at best athleticism might produce poor mechanics.
The fact that he apparently comes off as a bit of a dim bulb is even more of a problem, imo. We need energy and wits. |
My favorite part about this thread - I couldn't remember if I had said this before so I went hunting and came upon this from February of 2011 when discussing what to do at 21:

The ball comes out perfectly, has nice velocity and trajectory, and yet somehow it just ends up in the absolute WRONG place. |
