best player in the sup.draft wasnt even drafted? Jeremiah Masoli. he'd be a hell of a RB. too small to be a QB in the NFL.I think he is 5'11, 190 lbs...about like Pat White

Masoli debated going into the supplemental draft, but decided against it.

forgive my newbishness on the subject.. how does the supplemental draft work?

All teams are available to place bids (rounds 1 through 7) on players in the supplemental (usually guys that end up leaving school with eligibility remaining for whatever reason). Whoever places the highest bid on a player gets that player, but loses the corresponding pick in next year's draft. So the Bears and Cowboys lose their 7th rounders in the 11 draft, for selecting Unga and Brent, since they both placed 7th round bids.

are we talking like sidney rice kind of .. like epic time left sophmores ... 5th 6th year seniors .. or just people who decide after the initial draft that they would rather try the nfl than stay another year?

No most guys usually have some other issue. Unga was kicked out of BYU for honor code violations. I think grades were the issue with Brent, although I think he had some scrapes with the law in Champaign. Jeremy Jarmon (who was picked by the Redskins last year) was facing a suspension for a banned substance.

      Some love for Steve Wilks

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      Wilks is a nobody in the grand scheme of things.  He is right back out of the NFL, exactly where he was before Carolina dragged him back to the NFL.  I don't see what he has to be pissed or salty about. He got a shot with 2 teams and was just a average coach as he has always been.  He is a lesser Fox/Rivera

      Chris Long: Bryce Young Went Toe To Toe With Patrick Mahomes

      The way BY must play quarterback has a much higher degree of difficulty.  Coupled with his physical limitations his margin for error is small.    The guy evading the blitz and dropping a dime deep over double coverage is more exciting then a wobbling ball thrown into the blitz with good enough placement that gets 6 yards on a 3rd and 5.  It's been beat to death that he will never be the first guy.  He was the second guy vs the Chiefs.    The second guy is harder to do because it's mostly mental:  reading, reacting and processing the correct solution that the defense provided within a second or two.    It's harder to see on film, it's harder to evaluate.  That's why I think there's a divergence between fans yelling "noodle armed middle schooler!!" and analysts going "hold up, let's not write him off yet"    I personally need to see the Chiefs game be the start of growth before getting hopeful.  Ideally would like to see 1-2 300yd multi td games.  Then I'd expect the entire off season to fix his footwork.  With his physical limitations that footwork needs to be damn near perfect.  I would still bring in competition at the QB spot even in that scenario.
