Peter King still thinks Geno Smith will go Top 10 in the NFL Draft

I still see Geno Smith as I saw him a month ago — as a top-10 pick next April. With flaws, like the rest of the prospects.

Sooners on Mel Kipers Big Board for 2012

sooners — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 04:13:59 +0000

Landry Jones is at 6

Jones will draw inevitable comparisons to Sam Bradford (and other OU QBs with huge numbers). But he has good size, a strong arm, and has improved his accuracy. Major prospect.

Ronnell Lewis is at 17

A defensive end at Oklahoma, Lewis will take his elite athleticism to outside linebacker at the next level. Too quick for many offensive tackles, he should pile up sacks. Added here after eligibility issues cleared up.

No Ryan Broyles, yet.

ESPN sucks, “Mike Stoops” ??????

Greg Cosell tweets about Tim Tebow, Lebron James needs to follow Greg

sooners — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 14:08:41 +0000

Time to return to Tebow with what’s now out there. Must understand college + NFL game totally different. Physical attributes define success.

More Tebow: To play consistent NFL QM must be able to pass. Many elements comprise that: timing, anticipation, accuracy, to quantify a few.

Tebow hurt by no off-season. At this point does everything too slowly: drop, decision making, delivery. Elongated delivery major problem.

Tebow limited arm strength does not compensate for slow delivery. At thsi point he must be broken down mechanically + built from scratch.

More Tebow: Always remember physical traits define NFL play not vague concepts of winning or hard work. Have to make throws. That’s the job.

Would never say Tebow has no chance but major work in progress. Had him a late round pick/FA coming out. Did not seee skills that projected.

Interesting skill set comparison re: Tebow + V, Young. What made them special in college didn’t project. Running not relevant, it’s passing.

Individual traits, both physical + mental (i.e., pre + post snap decision making, etc) determine consistent high level QB play over time.

More QB: Won/loss record a function of many elements, some specific to QB play, some not. Attributes + traits most important in evaluation.

I can’t speak for how others evaluate QB position. My beliefs primarily based on 20 yrs of NFL tape study. It’s a constant learning process.

2 traits re:elite NFL QB play: Must function + throw effectively w/bodies around you, + willingness to make stick throws into tight windows.

DeMarco Murray slowed by hamstring – Dallas Cowboys camp

sooners — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 15:45:49 +0000

Third-round rookie DeMarco Murray reported to Cowboys training camp Thursday with a hamstring injury and “could miss two weeks.”

This sucks, it just adds to the “he’s injury prone” crap people have been saying about DeMarco.
