Leonidas Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Thanks for the list. For someone who doesn't watch much college ball, this is certainly food for thought (no sarcasm intended). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Thanks...that is encouraging. You want someone who has played a lot and had to read defenses, played against decent competition and made good choices. And as history as a guide QBs weare talking about now have a way of plummeting later on (Clausen and McCoy, B Brohm, etc...). I'll have to keep an eye out for these guys.

FightinIrishBills Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Not sold on Kaepernick. The guy has thrived in a great system and he has some wheels, but much like Locker, his mechanics are shaky at best. Right now the only real deal QBs I see out there are Mallett and Luck. And as much as I've championed Mallett, those 2 late interceptions against 'Bama were just bad. Meanwhile Luck is just an absolute stud. The kid is making perfect throws with blitzes coming at him all day (don't ask me how many times I swore at the TV last weekend as he sailed pass after pass into tight coverage). The rest of these guys are good, but not going to be elite level QBs anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanuts Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I could see ponder in 2nd or 3rd Ponder is a great choice has his MBA and would make a fine second round pick. Grab the OT from wisconsin Carimi with the first pick which cost a ton of upfront $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfaninvgs Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I will be watching Colin Kaepernick live on Saturday. I hate Reno but this kid is a stud... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't concentrate purely on Luck/Locker/Mallett. They are not the only choices in the first and second round. Some good options there I agree. I think you do need a LT first otherwise what is the point of a franchise qb who you cant protect? Also , dont use the term "Bills Nation". That term belongs to The Oakland Raiders fans, and sometimes The Boston Red Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPS Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I could see ponder in 2nd or 3rd A September draft projection. Isn't it early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog69 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 The QB rankings will change as the season goes on. I think Ponder will end up as one of the top 2-3 QB prospects in the draft. I will be surprised if Luck comes out, unless Harbaugh leaves Stanford. Mallett and Ponder will be competing to be the #1 QB in the draft. Just my opinions.

Ramius Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 For those interested in Ponder, check out... http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/117981-ponder-watch/ And for those mouth breathers spouting off about FSU QBs, Ponder will be the first QB coming out of FSU to be coached entirely by Jimbo Fisher. Bobby Bowden and the old 'Noles offensive strategy played no role in the development of Ponder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take offense to that, I am the only mouthbreather making fun of FSU, and it's cause I really don't like them. Also, the Jimbo Fisher thing isn't that much of a vote of confidence when the last place he was QB's coach produced JellyCheeseRoll Russell. Ponder is good, but I hope we have our QB figured out before we have to go that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
