  1. Yeah, but he is the oldest 32 in the history of 32 yr olds...no thanks. Next idea plz.
  2. I BET HE COMES ON RECOMMENDATION FROM ALL-PRO KYLE WILLIAMS, FELLOW LSU STANDOUT. IF HE THOUGHT HIGHLY OF HIM, HE MIGHT BE OK. I BET HE MAKES THE CLUB.
  3. something tells me these guys were jauron or john guy favorites....until further notice I trust in the decisions of our Buddy, the great Buddy Nix. Nix or bust baby. Nix or bust.
  4. I'll go first - if Tebow is anything, he is big, strong, tough, and productive... try again with your thought?
  5. why bring him in? b/c our D coord comes from MIA and knows if he can play now or not! plus, we are converting to a 3-4 and this guy can easily be a situational player in the 3-4 for us....(of which we have few natural 3-4 players or guys who are familiar with the 3-4)...plus, he brings attitude. adding him and incognito and we won't lose to NE just b/c they have Pats unis on.
  6. We need to obtain assets. Sign him to a 1-yr deal...why not.
  7. Are injuries really the risk now though? Edwards is fragile and Fitzy is merely a stop gap. McNabb would be 33. Bradford and McKoy are coming off injuries. Tebow hasn't taken snaps under center and has a slow release. Lefevour is a project with plenty of questions. Clausen showed up at Notre Dame in a limo and promised 4 Natl Titles. Last I checked, that didn't happen. I vote Brohm and a rookie and Brohm will start.
  8. Fair, but premature. So the kid was beaten out for the BACKUP role to Rodgers b/c Flynn was more prepared to be in that role. Neither guy was going to play unless Rodgers got hurt. Flynn has good tools for that role after having played starting QB the year prior at LSU. It wasn't like Flynn was/is a bum. Brohm will get a chance this offseason and I bet he is better prepared and gets a legit shot for once. The O-Line will be much better this upcoming season.
  9. Yep, I value accuracy #1 assuming the QB has at least decent arm strength...the top QBs today have incredible accuracy and quick releases (impt) --> Manning, Rivers, Brady, Brees - all known for accuracy and getting the ball out of their hands on time. Brohm has those qualities.
  10. BUY - WORTH A ROUND 1 PICK By Rob Tribbett In order for an NFL team to be successful, they must have consistent leadership and performance at the quarterback position. Louisville QB Brian Brohm combines starting experience with a strong arm and solid understanding of the game. He has all of the qualities necessary to succeed in the NFL and is very worthy of a first round pick. Research by David Lewin at The Football Outsiders, has shown that the two factors that determine the success of high draft picks at the QB position are games started and completion percentage. Brohm started in 33 career games while appearing in 11 other games at Louisville as a true freshman. Brohm’s career completion percentage is an obscene 65.8%, well above the baseline for NFL success. He has maintained his production in two different offenses, despite inconsistent play at the wide receiver spot (aside from Harry Douglas) and a revolving door at RB due to injuries. Many underestimate Brohm’s arm strength and natural athleticism because he does everything so easily. He was an elite recruit who has deceptive athleticism that he uses to escape the pocket and make plays down the field. While his arm strength may not be at the elite level of Chad Henne or Joe Flacco, it is certainly above average. He is one of the more accurate QBs in the draft and his understanding of the game is unrivaled. Brohm fits virtually any NFL system, where his quick release and accuracy would succeed in a West Coast system and his arm strength would work in a more vertical game. Brohm entered the 2007 college season as the top rated QB, and as has happened several times over the past several years (Matt Leinart, Brady Quinn), has slipped in some eyes, due to no fault of his own. The Cardinals struggles in 2007 could be blamed on the defense – not Brohm who through 30 touchdowns at over a 65% completion percentage. While some are concerned about Brohm’s durability, he suffered two fluky injuries and was willing to play through them. Critics also were worried about the durability of Trent Edwards in the 2007 NFL draft, but Edwards demonstrated in his first season that those concerns were unfounded for a QB. Brian Brohm may not be selected in the first round of the NFL draft, but he certainly should be. His combination of experience, arm strength, and accuracy make him one of the top prospects we have seen in recent years. Add to that his success in a two different offensive systems and his understanding of the passing game, and Brohm clearly is deserving of being a Round 1 pick in the 2008 NFL Draft

  12. He scored well on the intellect test...is a smart kid...has now been groomed for 3 yrs....I think he wins the job no matter who we draft to be honest.
  13. additionally, none of those three guys is 6'3" and 230 ... Brohm is the prototype. I also have seen him throw and read elsewhere that he has a strong arm and can make all the throws.
  14. I like Lefevour as well...he can compete with Brohm.
  15. He may well be...he will get a chance somewhere....he and Brohm should compete and the best man wins!
  16. Oh, I like Bradford as well. Redskins pick ahead of us and have ties to him with their surgeon on staff (also his surgeon)...if they pass on him that tells me they think his health might be risky?
  17. We shall see if he is given a legit chance...why not? He is better than the college crop and the avail free agent crop IMO.
  18. SUCCESSFUL Matt Ryan (32 starts, 59.9 percent completion rate) Brian Brohm (33 starts, 65.8 percent completion rate) Joe Flacco (26 starts, 63.4 percent completion rate) Chad Henne (47 starts, 59.7 percent completion rate) vs UNSUCCESSFUL Boller 48% Leaf 54% Druckenmiller 54%
  19. Mitchell - Poz - McClain - Maybin (plus Ellis and some draft picks).... Brohm, please step up.
  20. "Your" would be the correct word...but alas, I drink beer no kool-aid. Take it to the bank. Bills playoff bound with Chan this yr.
  21. Agreed. This is thinking outside the box and I think we have some true sleepers on this roster and potentially Ellis is #1 sleeper/project. He has a chance and isnt a converted safety. We might actually hit some folks and DICTATE what they do for once! I am calling it now. Bills make the playoffs this year. Have a feeling.
