Sure they may take one, if not they'll get 1 or 2 udfas. But will it be a QB with enough upside to spend a roster spot for their development?I think they'll take a QB. We have what...six picks left?
I am comfortable with Johnson and Jenkins... But depth behind them in case of injury?
I didn't say they had no reason and of course all the teams did have a reason for not drafting him. It's usually because they suck. Their sortcomings are usually apparent as soon as you see them on the field.crazyhorns misreading my post:
Ho do you know they have no reason. It maybe not obvious to us but I am sure they have some thoughts about what to do with this player
Jacksonville has really improved it's team with this draft.
I am not impress with the Seahags draft. But then again I was not in the past and they found some gems.
So because they have short comings they can never improve with good coaching and scheme?I didn't say they had no reason and of course all the teams did have a reason for not drafting him. It's usually because they suck. Their sortcomings are usually apparent as soon as you see them on the field.
It's not instant gratification, it's the fact that they weren't drafted for a reason. That reason is usually very obvious when they do get on the field. As it is with both of those players.
It would be really stupid of me to contend that you can't coach up a player who everyone thinks is undraftable (which is why they didn't draft him) or else why bother to sign them. That's why I didn't say that.Rabid Ram incorrectly extrapolating my post:
So player development be damed if you not an instant starter your updraft able? How is this not instant gratification?
As far as McLeod I'm not saying he's great but why don't we see if maybe his issues were due to a failed scheme and pee pee poor usage by walton
Ok ty for extrapolating that for me Alan I was starting to worry about you for a minIt would be really stupid of me to contend that you can't coach up a player who everyone thinks is undraftable (which is why they didn't draft him) or else why bother to sign them. That's why I didn't say that.
What it does mean, is that hoping for them to make a leap from undraftable to starting caliber requires a significant amount of drugs. Even the draftable ones seldom make it.
As for the second part of your post, I doubt the issue of incorrect usage/scheme isn't taken into account by all the 32 teams who didn't draft him.
I'm hoping we found a diamond in the rough in McLeod and Cody but I'm certainly not going to base my draft like they are.
I want to see Manzeil play against the Rams front 7. That's what I want to see. Will he still be in the league and healthy when the Rams get their chance?
