MSU's DBs looked really good. I know about Dennard but are there any other prospects?

Kirios posted:I don't really think that highly of Petty as a prospect, so I fully expect Bortles to outplay him. The field isn't ideal but Bortles, while he has made some excellent throws, has also made some very boneheaded decisions. Ah well the worst thing you can do is start worrying about who your team is picking #1 right now. There's still a lot of testing to go. He's making bad decisions but right now the only thing I'm really noticing about Bortles is how hes driving off his back foot.

He's making bad decisions but right now the only thing I'm really noticing about Bortles is how hes driving off his back foot. He's not misreading the defense a lot or anything. He also hasn't shown much panic, he gets the ball out quick, he has a nice quick release, he throws well on the run, and the little miscues are possibly fixable because it comes back to the footwork. That's before even getting to his size and his arm strength. There were a couple of plays where the Baylor defense had a free rusher and Bortles hung in, planted and fully followed through, knowing the hit was coming. I didn't see the 'shying from contact' throws that Bucky Brooks claims Blake makes under pressure. He let it rip, ready to be whalloped. e: And having seen his zone read tonight I'll be interested to see how he performs at the combine, because I didn't see that from him all season. I mean they had zone read concepts in the offense but he amassed 50% of his total season rushing production in tonight's game. The 7th Guest fucked around with this message at 05:55 on Jan 2, 2014 |

My favorite thing about Bortles is that there is almost a near perfect 50/50 split (at least in TFF) over whether its the best football name or worst football name. There is no middle ground.

If a quarterback nicknamed Bort doesn't turn out to be at least decent I will be upset.

The alliteration makes it better for me. John Bortles isn't nearly as good as Blake Bortles.

The Roethlisberger/Locker comparisons are pretty apt. His accuracy this game seems down but it obviously hasn't caused that much of an issue.

Why are you so down on Bridgewater? From what I've seen he has good mobility and his accuracy/touch is Peytonesque. If my team weren't starting the greatest QB of all time I'd want Teddy for my very own.

If that's the criteria we're using then what the gently caress are you talking about? Teddy Bridgewater looks like a crimson Adonis in those great Louisville uniforms. Also, his name is TEDDY BRIDGEWATER

Bortles is a pretty bad name. Teddy Bridgewater is objectively the best name in football with Terrance Broadway shortly behind. Look for Broadway to be the first pick in next year's draft.

I have a personal bias for Chuckie Keeton but Kolton Browning is pretty fantastic too. His name is practically two guns, for Gods sake!

The best thing about Bortles is that I've never heard of him until today. Also, obviously you take Teddy with the first pick.

Texans should take Clowney because O'Brien can turn Keenum in to a pro bowler anyways

He is easily in the 2nd-4th QB range, depending on if Hundley comes out or not.
