I could see workouts vaulting Freeman because he is the kind of guy scouts would love but I have a hard time seeing him playing to that physical talent for a long time. He makes alot of dumb decisions..I understand his team sucks and he has no running game but some of the mistakes he makes are inexcusable.

Freeman will be loved by scouts but he's a major project...he's a combination of Flacco, Boller and Campbell.

Every guy is going to be a major project - name me a non-redshirt junior QB that came out that wasn't a major project.

The Jevan Snead comp Hamas keeps using for Freeman is just as silly as Kyle Boller comps for Stafford by anti-Stafford people.

Everyone has their biases for these guys, but let's focus on what we do know. On Freeman, we know he's huge, has a big arm, is very athletic, has played in a legit pro system, and has improved his numbers every year despite having an extreme lack of talent around him. No, his decision-making is not perfect yet, but if it was he would be the no-brainer pick at #1 due to his physical tools. Stafford's decision-making is hardly pristine, so I think it's a bit ridiculous to keep harping on Freeman.

Bottom line, I'll take Stafford if we have the chance. But if he's gone, I am definitely intrigued by the idea of taking Freeman with a mid-1st round pick, assuming we can trade down or maybe trade back into the 1st.
