As best I can telll page 9 of ths thread was 1st mention of your next QB.  10shot gets the prize.
Nope, page 1 third post from Edge. He tried to to bury it, but I found it. LOL

Good write up on Brett Rypien, comparing him to Tom Brady when he was a prospect.  He would be a late round prospect rounds 5-7 likely.

That's a hell of a way to say, "This guy grades out as a sixth-rounder."

It's one thing to compare someone to Antonio Gates or Kurt Warner.  It's something else entirely to compare them to those players as prospects.  They were terrible prospects, which is why they went undrafted.

I don't understand your point.  The article is showing that Rypien isn't the best prospect because he's skinny and doesn't have an elite arm, just like Tom Brady the prospect, and that intangibles are harder to scout.  That and the writer believes Rypien has those same intangibles to some degree that Brady has, so it would be worth it to draft him in the later rounds.  

It's a fun article about a late draft pick talent.  I wouldn't really want them to spend a high draft pick on any QB this draft within our reach, so this makes sense.

^^^^ actually there is zero mention of the single most important intangible.  Brady being extremely coachable in comparison to other QBs.  That not him being scrawny at the combine is what allowed him to become great.

You'd have to be a fool to think he'll turn out like Brady but you'd be a fan to hope he does  Smiley

I wouldn't mind seeing Miami make a trade for Kyle Lauletta.

"One NFL scout in Morgantown, W.V., just texted that QB Will Grier “put on a show” for NFL Teams in attendance and predicted he’s “a riser.” The WVU QB is expected to meet with at least 10 teams before the draft, including the Giants, Redskins, Chargers, Pats and Saints."

Currently a 3-5 round prospect.  Not sure why Scheft didn't include the Dolphins, you know they're one of those 3 teams.

I don't get your love for Kyle Lauletta.  He was drafted in the 4th round, barely used by the Giants last year, 0-5 on passes with an interception.  Comes from a small school, Richmond.  He's a project, not worth trading anything for, and if the Giants see something in him I can't see them letting him go; unless perhaps they do draft Haskins and want to keep Eli on for a final year.

That was pretty much my take on Lauletta too when he was coming out of college last year.  Didn't he also get arrested for some really dumbass stunt or am I thinking of some other young backup QB?

These are funny. If you can't show out at home with guys you've been playing with for some time now and no one defending then that would be news. Everyone looks good on their pro day and doesn't mean a whole lot to anyone.

Joe Rose said pretty much the same thing this morning. Said the media love playing it up but in reality no GM will be swayed by a performance against air vs tape against competition. Pro days are more of a meet and greet.

Agree.  More about an opportunity to interview player, coaches and teammates than skill assessment.  However, a bad proday can hurt.  If a player can grip the smaller college ball but struggles with the proball the players stock will drop.
