Blaine Gabberts Mega thread

[teeray]

Mortensen reports on some scouts feedback that were there per Twitter.

Just in from one QB market team re: Gabbert: "Solid but not elite, certainly not Bradford or Stafford." 2 other teams much more impressed

So a little mixed but overall seems he did well for himself.

Rivera was there per Rob Rang

As expected, the Missouri Pro Day was well attended by NFL decision-makers, including Carolina head coach Ron Rivera, Jets' head coach Rex Ryan, Ravens' head coach John Harbaugh, 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh, Bengals' head coach Marvin Lewis, and Jaguars' head coach Jack Del Rio.

You like Brandt, right? Go check out this thread: http://www.carolinahuddle.com/forum/carolina-panthers/58079-gil-brandt-on-gabberts-pro-day-not-so-sure-newton-should-go-1-overall-anymore.html

Don't see the problem with coach and hurney not being there. Private work out is going to tell them more anyways.

I am literally posting everything I have seen so far positive and negative.

Every body seems to think Gabbert did well today. A lot of the feedback from scouts was anywhere from "very good not elite", to he "looked like a franchise QB and answered all questions"

So basically anyway you slice it he had a pretty good day. Just how good is the debate at this point.

The only thing I find intriguing about that is that he was throwing to guys who he barely knew. Not a big deal, because it wasn't in a game situation, but still impressive.

When has anyone had a bad pro day? RT @Dave_Matter Gabbert unofficially completes 44 of 49, at least 3 misses were drops on good balls.

Joseph Person said it best. Of course unless you count Devlin, but he's not a 1st rounder.

That is true but there's a difference between not having a bad pro day and having a good one, too.

Gabbert reminds me of Josh Freeman a few years back. Not a great college career but great physical tools + intangibles. Obviously there's no Stafford type in this year's draft so he'll end up getting overdrafted a little bit. I think he'll be solid though.

This reminds me of the Matt Ryan situation, Gabbert almost has to be the pick if we want to turn the franchise around. Unless you trade down.

This situation reminds me a bit of the decision the 'Fins had to make: Gamble on a QB, or go for a guy who is a virtual lock for probowls down the line.

We know the decision they made... When they finally land that franchise QB he will certainly benefit from the decision they made in that draft, ;)

Falcons certainly benefited from it.
