I think Tom Brandstater of Fresno St. is a Pioli type of pick as a mid to late rd qb prospect. Just from his size 6'4 or bigger 225# or so. Doesn't hurt Pat Hill is the HC, a former BB assistant.

Excellent detective work. Never even thought of it until you mentioned this.

We have our late-round QB prospect with the tools who just needs some time in the NFL to adjust. His name is Brodie Croyle, his strength can be improved so his durability can be improved. I remember reading a quote from a scout saying they don't worry about strength because they can fix it later on.

Great, don't read what I post then if it bugs you that much.

Sorry I will always prefer speed and natural athleticism to guys who work hard but aren't naturally gifted.

So you hate Vrabel...got it.

I'm talking about transitioning to the next level...for the NFL he isn't very athletic.

If he was more athletic, he'd be a first day pick. I'm sure his 18 sacks were just gimmees, right? 1/3 of the teams have talked with him, because he has no fit in the NFL, right?

Almost all of the white LB's in the league aren't really athletic.

But hey, guys with great athleticism and no work ethic outside the gym work out well too! (see Gholston)

I hope your not dumb enough to label players after just their rookie year.

Lazy is lazy. Hope he turns it around, but he wasnt worthy of being the top pick as some argured last year. Or are you dumb enough to to think a guy with motivation issues was a better pick than the guys picked before him?

Mecca · 03-15-2009, 01:31 AM

Anyone who ever watched more than a highlight vid could tell he wasn't overly athletic...and teams pick on him in the passing game.

I really don't understand the obsession with hard workers, if the guy works hard thats nice but generally they do need you know talent.

He's an explosive hitter and makes plays. He's more than a hard worker. He's not Maslowski.
