JPS Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 He and his agent must be really comfortable with his draft status if their going to risk his draft position on a Central Michigan University "pro day". Usually, only the injured or top QB's don't throw because they can only hurt themselves. I'm stunned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 He's working out at the combine, just not doing the throwing drills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JStranger76 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 He's not gonna work out in Buffalo either!!!!! Please, no more mid round QB's who might be good in 8 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cocktosten Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Who cares? There are two legit QBs (Clausen/Bradford) in this draft and every other one is just filler for the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPS Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 What workout does a QB do, other than throw, that is worth scouting? The boy needs to throw at the combine. Heard it on Sirius NFL. No link. FYI- One of those guys sid he has some Brees qualities, but wouldn't go as far as to predict DL's success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Period. But due to us needed 2 OTs and a new defense, I really don't see us taking a QB early. So this guy is in our wheelhouse and I think you have to pay attn to him.

CarolinaBill Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Thats very disappointing, Makes me wonder about him. Part of the combine is throwing to foreign recievers, the same thing he did at the Senior Bowl, I don't see why this would be so different. oh well, I Guess we'll see what he does at the proday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans want to point to he was his teams MVP of the Sr bowl or some crap while ignoring he had a horrible week of practice overall. The guy is messageboard hype.

No link. FYI- One of those guys sid he has some Brees qualities, but wouldn't go as far as to predict DL's success. Considering that we don't have any NFL starting caliber OTs, Bills scouts are very interested in 2 things that are typically not included in combine workouts: When sacked does the QB avoid fumbling & when sacked does the QB get up or will he be injury prone. After JP & Trent this is a top Bills priority. The Bills wanted Aaron Maybin to go workout the QBs & sack them, but withdrew their invitation after being unable to find any film at 1 Bills Drive that indicates Maybin would know how to sack a QB.

He had a horrible week of PRACTICE. He was learning how to take snaps under center and playing with entirely new teammates. 3 years ago, no one even paid attention to practice. Yeah, but what dumb fans for pointing out that he was the MVP of the ACTUAL GAME!!! But forget about the game where the lights shine the brightest. He was bad in practice.

yungmack Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I love the hype that this guy gets when 99.9% of this board have never watched a full game he's played in. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/...row-at-combine/ I've watched about 30 of his games over the years which is why I'm a fan of his. Watched Clausen in high school and through his ND career, maybe 20 games total, which is why I'm not a fan of his. Watched maybe 10 games with Bradford and McCoy. Picking any player is a crapshoot, and QB more so than any other position. So while I think Lefevour would be a great match for Buffalo, really, who actually knows?

If you watched Clausen this year and were not impressed than we are never going to see eye to eye. Maybe all of that MAC football dumbed you down a bit.
