Bangarang Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Nassib He also doesn't wear sleeves regardless of how cold it is. Kid was government engineered to play for the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 None of them really have shown to be clutch performers, despite things like Manuel winning his bowl games. I hate to say this, but Ryan Nassib probably has the most of all of those players if the four criterion were given equal credence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stenbar Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 According to that segment where you received your information Landry Jones is the closest to his requirements..Ill go with Mr. Polian and his selection of qbs over anyone else......

Dr. Trooth Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) #3 on the list is hands down and over the top in Nassib's favor... and it ain't close for 2nd place. Edited April 17, 2013 by Dr. Trooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 #3 on the list is hands down and over the top in Nassib's favor... and it ain't close for 2nd place. Barkley is very highly regarded in that part of his game. You're letting your bias get away with you saying it ain't close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Nassib He also doesn't wear sleeves regardless of how cold it is. Kid was government engineered to play for the Bills. except that he played in a dome in college... Gruden was concerned with his "ball security" Yeah, did you see that? I actually had ESPN on for that segment. I was laughing my arse off, because he does have a point but he hammered away at something so small it was boring. Instead of working on the other issues he has in his game he stuck on something any peewee football player could have told him was an error. Gruden is a douchenozzle.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) EJM EJ Manuel is no where near a clutch performer. Manuel also has question on processing information. Nassib is probably the closest to getting all 4 of all the QB's. EVeryone else has 2 out of 4. Edited April 17, 2013 by TheTruthHurts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Are those in his order of importance because he always stressed accuracy as his number one quality in a QB, followed by smarts to process information quickly. I can't see him making arm strength most important when he was always so adamant about accuracy and smarts. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passepartout Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 It is about being clutch and winning when it comes down to it. Plus making split second decisions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Gruden was concerned with his "ball security" Honestly...Not to say that Gruden was incorrect...But that is an easily correctable "fault" in EJ's game...That's very coach-able... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
....lybob Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 The reason we are arguing over 3 or 4 QBs is because there are no obvious franchise QBs in this draft and our desperate need for said franchise QB changes none of these pig ears into a silk purse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go back to the tapes for yourself... Barkley holds onto it longer... he's still processing... and when the ball comes out, Nassibs release is more compact and quicker.

I don't want the Bills to draft him at all. But that is one of the strengths of his game. The compact release has little to processing information. It's important, and a great strength of Nassib's. But it's a different category of skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeisterHollow Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I saw the episode - and it wasn't arm strength overall - like a cannon of an arm - but that first and foremost the QB had to be capable of making all the throws an NFL QB would need to make. Then it was accuracy, then processing info quickly, and finally clutch play. Yeah, I was really disappointed that Jaworski and Pollian both had Barkley pretty far down on their lists. Pollian had Jones as his number 1 QB, then Nassib. That was a real shocker - although, considering Jones's records and history, I wouldn't be surprised if he's gone by the middle of the 3rd round. They both had Nassib as their 2nd QB, I believe. Nassib appears to be getting the most consistent props of any of these QB's. I'm amazed - I've been all in on Barkley. I'm beginning to wonder if I'm wrong. I can't help seeing what I see, and I just believe Barkley is the guy, but at this point, I'll be happy if the Bills end up with Nassib, Barkley, Wilson, or Smith - even Manuel.

I know arm strength can be overrated in importance but I don't think I've ever seen a QB with a weaker arm than Matt Barkley with the possible exception of Chad Pennington. His arm is weaker than Matt Cassel's, Fitz', Orton's, McCoy's, anyone's. It's screamingly obvious AFAIC. All you have to do is watch the video and it jumps off the screen… and I intentionally only watched his games from 2011 when he was completely healthy and had a great season.
