  1. I'll take that out of school: t’s NFL Draft season and I was curious to revisit what scouts, coaches and media said about Jay Cutler back in 2006. I found an article on USA Today that called Cutler a team guy who was used to the pressure. In the article there were some interesting quotes and his stat line. Sponsored by Connatix Bench pressed 405 pounds and at the NFL Scouting Combine put together 23 bench reps of 225 pounds. “Teams and scouts have fallen in love with Cutler’s size, arm, mobility and intangibles.” ESPN’s Chris Mortensen rated Cutler as the No. 1 quarterback. NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock said, “From a physical skill set, I think Cutler has the biggest arm in the draft. I think he has a quicker release than either of the other two (Matt Leinart and Vince Young). He’s tough. I think he played behind a very poor offensive line without a whole lot of help. … When I look at that kid and what he did on tape, he can make throws that I don’t think the other two kids can make.” Cutler was named a team captain the past three seasons at Vanderbilt. Held school records with 9,953 yards in offense, 59 passing touchdowns and 167 consecutive passes without an interception. Vandy quarterback coach Jimmy Kiser said, “Jay’s transition to the pro game is going to be easier than for other people who have played with tremendous talent on their team. He’s used to the speed of the game and people flying around him, and throwing the ball with tremendous pressure on him.” “He knew he was going to have to get bigger and stronger to weather all those hits. He never backed off,” Vandy head coach Bobby Johnson says. “Sometimes he tried to run over guys. We tried to get that out of him. He’s not a ‘protect me’ kind of guy. He’ll stand up and say, ‘I can handle it.’ “
  2. You take away at least half the field- when you start rolling, more as you go. Unless you want to Brett Favre a pass back to the middle. Nothing bad can happen then.
  3. I think he bails out on the pocket too fast and rolls right. Easily defensed
  4. -Kuiper 2.0 has Giants taking Barkley and Rosen falling to 11 http://www.nj.com/giants/index.ssf/2018/02/nfl_draft_2018_giants_make_surprise_pick_in_mel_ki.html
  5. When was the last USC QB that was any good? Carson Palmer was ok.
  6. They cut Phil for Dave Brown.- Reeves stayed coaching for another 3 or 4 seasons.
  7. Simms was loved- he got released after an 11-5 season. people get over it.
  8. If history is any predictor, they will draft a QB and he will start the 5th or 6th game, whenever Eli has a Bad Eli game. I don't think they pass up a QB this year. It's the most valuable and long lasting commodity (if they're good).
  9. I dont even see why coaches and managers need unis. Under armor could develop a new line of baseball coach wear...
  10. Lots of chatter for Cousins in Jville
  11. Hard to say after last season.
  12. Yeah Im goood with him. Have we picked a DC yet?
  13. Why does Otanis interpreter need to wear a uni?
  14. It'd be good to see what Luck could do with a good shoulder (2 actually), a good coach and a good team.
  15. he's a free agent and wants more years than most are willing. I'm always leary of nl pitchers in the Al...their eras usually go up 3/4 of a run
  16. That could be interesting but Glenn has injury and a fat contract.
  17. Ahh- now I get it. Do you still bleed navy and white? ( I had to look that up)
