Mallett on Sports Science

Recommended Posts

He will be a really good QB if the rumors around him are false.

Considering the rumors have been around for months and there has been virtually zero sources backing it up, I'm assuming it's false until proven otherwise. I personally think he will be the best QB in the draft.

Months?? Try years. I have no idea whether it is true or not. And not having a source that has talked to the media doesn't mean things are not known by NFL teams.

Not saying he did anything. As a matter of fact on my totally worthless QB board I have him second in front of Gabbert.

I'd take Mallet over Gabbert. I think he can be a franchise QB if he goes to the right team.

if we absolutely had to take a QB this draft I'd take Mallett over any of them. don't want a QB at all though unless Mallett somehow falls to the 3rd round(won't happen). damn shame we don't have that 2nd round pick..

There has been zero corroboration of the rumors, but where there is smoke there is fire. (usually) If it is not true, it is a really sad situation, because he would be a serious consideration for #1 if the rumors were not out there.

Mellett is by far the best passer in the draft, but is not even considered a top 15 pick because of either; a habit that will preclude him from any success in the NFL, or the most coordinated character assassination in recent memory.

you would seriously have Mallett behind our line??? wow, if that's the case, i hope Otah stays healthy all year, Mallett is SO slow

would be just as concerned with how he handles pressure etc as any off field concerns.

i am more worried about pressure on the field with Mallett, that speed scares me, i fear that he will be sacked alot, other than that, he's another Cutler.

He will be a really good QB if the rumors around him are false.

i think he will be a really good QB if he's protected and his speed either improves or isnt as bad as i think it is. Mallett has the best deep arm in this draft. Sorry Newton, Gabbert and Locker, but i think Mallett's deep arm is best. Mallett has the deep arm, Gabbert is more accurate, Newton has the most potential with his size, mobility and arm and Locker in my book is the best runner and i would trust him to run an offense too. i think Locker should be picked at pick 10 by Washington, that's where i think he could fulfill his potential because Shanahan did a good job with Cutler and Plummer and those two are who Locker kinda remind me of.

    • Don't look now, but a 3-game win streak, including 2 on the road in back-to-back games. The Canes haven't won 3 straight since the middle of November, over 2 months ago.  Canes held Dallas to 23 SOG, with a lot of those coming in a late game flurry. Canes have had some difficulty keeping SOG down to where we're used to seeing them. The Dallas game was reminiscent of the defense we saw early in the season- standing teams up at the blue line and making zone entry a real pain in the pads. 
    • Agreed with a lot of this. Couple thoughts, especially towards the OL/future cap things... First, I hope Bryce is good enough to command being paid a Top 5 QB salary. Great news for us if so. But as of now, I think he'd be in that mid-tier range, so that $60 gets cut to 30-40. Baker to Stafford range. Obviously the cap will go up and $60 might be the new mid-tier, but either way I think we're fine here. He either continues to ascend and gets paid Top 5 money because he's that good and thank God. Or, he shows he's Baker level, gets a competitive offer that's outside the Top 10, and we're "saving" money (but also paying someone who may not be the "guy" in that scenario).  The OL is the biggest thing going forward IMO. You're 100% right here about the need for an OL, paying them, % of the cap, etc. Which is why in the next couple of drafts, we HAVE to absolutely nail a couple OL picks. We can't realistically tie up that much money in our OL. So we better turn into the Cowboys the late 2010s and constantly have a revolving cycle of a couple highly paid pieces, with drafted guys who step up and take their place once we have to move on. One highly paid OT, one highly paid OG, and then find rookie deals or cheaper vets that fit well.  Point being, we're teetering on the edge of a few foundational pieces being here now. IF, and history isn't on our side here, we can nail the next couple of drafts...we're in a good spot when it comes to the cap and future. If we don't find a couple of defensive cornerstones and find reliable OL depth that can take over for Hunt/Moton/Lewis as they age or contracts balloon...that's when we're right back in hell IMO. No pressure, Dan.
