There you go.

7th round developmental prospect. To the practice squad!

I was lurking other teams' message boards the other day and ran into one (can't remember which team exactly, but I THINK it was a Jets board) and the general opinion seemed to be that Tajh is the QB they should take in the 1st and that he is who they would select over anyone. They aren't as passionate about Boyd as we generally are about Smith or anything, but on this particular board, people seem to have a general agreement that Boyd is their man. It's just kind of funny/interesting how opinions and perceptions vary from board to board/team to team.

No thanks.

If they picked him up late I wouldn't hate life. He seems like a gamer, and those guys are worth taking a shot on. Needs some work though.

But even if you got a couple TDs off a trick play or fake punt per year for 5 years, that's worth a 4/5 round pick.

That Sammy Watkins that he throws to is a badass.

They aren't even comparable. Jesus.

As for Planeteer opinions on Russell Wilson:

true ... most people didn't want Wilson and then after he turned out they started bitching because we didnt' draft him.

Similar situation with Boyd

hindsight is always 50/50 ... especially when it comes to drafting QB's

DeezNutz 01-01-2013 03:48 PM

Comparing Boyd to Wilson is absurd.

For Wilson, the knock was almost entirely about height (age, too, to a lesser extent). With Boyd, that's just one of the three concerns.

bullshit ...

QB draftee that doesn't quite meet the 'eye test' for an NFL so people don't want to draft him. Then later on if he does turn out people will bitch about their team not taking him.

players aren't the same but the situation is similar

Arm strength and poor mechanics. Those are two major concerns with Boyd. You want to call bullshit on this?

Not even sure what you're trying to argue, since my analysis of Boyd has absolutely nothing to do with Wilson or short ****ing QBs in general.

The general situation is the same

I am not a big Geno fan but I would much rather have Geno than Taj

It isn't at all the same, but whatever.
