Hurney, Rivera Looking like IDIOTS

[MHS831]

NOT going to a pro day of one of the top--the top--ranked QB in the draft is IDIOTIC unless they have a good reason. Brandt, Lombardi, Mayock all saying Gabbert is the real deal.

[chef17]

It's not that serious

[pantherfan81]

2 days from private workout, no big deal IMO.

1) They didn't go to Mallett's but brought him in. Sent Shula instead, and Mallett was at least at one point still in consideration.

2) ESPN did claim Rivera was there at one point, but that has since been retracted. Perhaps something happened?

3) We were surely in attendance even if not with our big guns.

4) We've got a private workout with the guy on saturday.

5) Maybe they already decided they wanted or didn't want him and this is all just a formality either way.

actually not going to a future garbage qb like gabbert is pretty smart

I thought so too, but too many people are singing his praises. We weren't there, remember. The experts who are praising him were.

Good news.

I don't doubt it. I have heard all the crazy praise he's getting. I'm pissed that all I've seen of it is a 30 second clip while ESPn gave me the lovely chance to sit through 8 hours of Auburn pro day. >: |

I think we saw what he did and I'm sure the Panthers know how he looks. I almost wonder if they heard he was throwing to a bunch of "no name" WRs and assumed it wouldn't be worth going to in person and could just watch film so they scheduled a private workout with Ricky Proehl running routes instead.

omfg!!! :willy_nilly:

Good read. I'm actually considering Gabbert at this point. But he would be the only QB I'd take.

I didn't see his name--caught my mistake. This is really good news if our coaches think the same, and if everything they say is true.

[Kurb]

Riviera was there.

Might want to look at http://blogs.nfl.com/2011/03/17/gabbert-answers-questions-about-accuracy/?module=HP_headlines and http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/don_banks/03/17/blaine-gabbert-pro-day/index.html#ixzz1GtfZ6rzc if you haven't yet. first is Gil Brandt going crazy over a guy he spent the last month downplaying, second is Don Banks with some comments from OCs that were there.

LOL I don't care who says who is 'the real deal' you think Rivera and Hurney actually care what they say? They're doing their own evaluation.

Stop whining.
