Yes. Great trade for the Eagles. But my point is that Kevin Kolb has not played well for the Cardinals. Skelton is now favored as the Cardinals starter.

Considering how poorly Kevin Kolb has done on the Cardinals, I don't think that is a a good thing.

+1

Blaine Gabbert and Lee Evans will be an awesome combination I take it?

Bump So what exactly were we told a few days ago?

Does Kalil make sense for Cleveland? They have an excellent LT already.

What exactly is a super bowl birth? =) Evans didn't need to put a toe down on that catch as he had both feet down already. He just failed to protect the ball and maintain possession. Seems like basic things for a wide receiver. But maybe he will get revitalized in Mularkey's offense.

No. With the constant double coverage, he will singlehandedly alter the dynamic of the Jags rivalrly with the rest of the AFC.

Ah. That law applies to educational institutions not the NFL.

The Wonderlic scores are supposed to be confidential by NFL policy but they still get leaked every year. Is there a federal law though on maintaining test score secrecy? If there was one, I doubt we would see these leaks.

Ahh. So this blanket statement comes from years of experience coaching or playing in the NFL? What do those thick binders that we see players carrying around contain? Cookie recipes?

College competition is like the NFL? Even the worst NFL team would destroy the best college team.

While the you wouldn't look for high Wonderlic scores to find your next football star, it still has use as a means to measure how well someone can grasp the complexities of an NFL playbook or whether or not someone has half a brain. Someone who scores below double digits should certainly raise all sorts of red flags.

If Hardy could get open a lot running routes, then he would have merited looks from other teams right? The only team that picked him up after the Bills dropped him was the Ravens and they didn't keep him long. Hardy just didn't have what it takes to grasp the game at the NFL level.

I think you are a bit off base. Didn't the NFL change the rules because statistics showed that winning the coin toss resulted in a clear advantage? I quickly tried looking up some percentages on the web and found the from wiki answers (there are likely better ones out there but this is what i got on short notice) ____________________________________________________________________________________ The NFL has had 325 overtime games since the rule was adopted in 1974. The results: Both teams have had possession 235 times (72.3%). The team that has won the toss has won 169 times (52.0%). The team that has lost the toss has won 141 times (43.4%). 223 games were decided by a field goal (68.6%). 86 games were decided by a TD (26.5%). One game was decided by a safety (0.3%). There have been 15 ties (4.6%). Source: NFL *It seems fair but these numbers are somewhat misleading because in 1994 a rule changed moved the kickoff back 5 yards to the 30 yard line (those numbers were based on data from 1973-2003). Since then, it's been about 60%. Prior to the rule change, the coin toss had no predictive value for deciding who would eventually win the game. Since 1994, the coin flip winner has a clear advantage. _____________________________________________________________________________________

Awesome. We all can't wait to see the rebuttal from mjt

It seems we have too many self appointed draft gurus who have a grossly simplified notion of what actually goes into scouting and drafting.

How many of Byrd's INTs that year came from Sanchize?

There is quite a difference between videotaping practice and incenting players to injure other people...

This has to be one of the most awesome arguments I have seen yet on this board... Obviously no need for stats showing the decline in rushing and defense production. Its just because Rex is bad.

So why didn't the Jets do so well this season if it was Sanchize who single handedly took them to the afc title match for two seasons. Is it perhaps because the stout defense and ground and pound running game that helped make up for Sanchez 's shortcomings as a passer disappeared ?

I would think they would give him at least training camp to show he recovered.

Past experience is certainly useful when making decisions. But the announcement that Mario signed today is one reason why you can't make a leap...

Is there actually a St Patrick's day parade anywhere that would not be like that?
