If I've said it once, I've said it 100 times: Any team drafting Barkley in the first, will be looking for a new QB in the 1st in 3 years.

So is a Grade 3 worse than a Grade 1?

Because all we've heard is that it should have been healed by now...

There's more to this story than is being said, IMO.

Just because it's healed doesn't mean your arm is up to full strength. Especially when a QB goes that long without throwing. You don't throw in the combine to unfamiliar receivers unless you are 100% sure your arm is tip top.

So he's healthy enough to throw, he's just ducking competition.

They said on NFL am that he isn't medically cleared to throw.

I didn't say that. I have no inside information on his arm. Dr Andrews will be there to explain it.

Barkley has been pretty vocal about wanting to fully participate, so clearly it's not his decision. Just like Geno with the Senior Bowl.

Barkley is probably best suited to go to a team that already has a veteran QB.

I know you didn't say that. That statement was pure sarcasm, directed at several people other than you.

Which takes me back to my original question.

I remember somebody suggesting that the worst case scenario was like 8-10 weeks.

We're headed WAY past that now.

Is there more to the injury than what we've been told?

From what I have found online, a separated/dislocated shoulder can take anywhere from 4-12 weeks to heal. Longer to get full strength back in the shoulder. As someone who has personally separated his shoulder in baseball, I am assuming they are referring to the occasional dead arm feeling you can get for a while after.

If he can't throw, he won't get drafted high.

He's gonna end up having his pro day at the last possible minute or he's gonna drop like a rock.

Why the **** did he go back to school?

[In58men]

He's ****ing injured.


He's a checkdown king

Ego, he wanted to be the #1 overall pick.

His Pro Day was pushed back as of like 2 months ago I believe in anticipation of this. And top QBs rarely throw at the combine. Geno is because his Agent clearly thinks there is still a chance he can impress the Chiefs and/or is worried if the Chiefs pass he could drop out of the top 10 all together.

Or you know, because the starting quarterback at USC. Which is basically the college equivalent of being a movie star.

Can't hide anything from the doctors at the combine.

IMO I think he could throw, but would be greatly increasing the probability of re-injury. The best decision he can make is to wait till its completely healed and then throw. Gotta be smart.
