Don't pay much mind to Luke, Lebanon. He just likes to pee on people a little bit.

I'm peeing on my face too, bro. On the inside.

I got mentioned by the golden boy!!!

FWIW, I have a quasi-acquaintance who does this for a living with the sun-sentinel, and a lot of the things the kid is saying are what scouts/evaluators are saying. So, at the least, he's passing along information in one tidy spot. At worst, he's regurgitating the work of others, which isn't all that uncommon.

He's right that Kafka doesn't have a great arm, but due to his footwork, and quick release, he was getting the ball there from windup to catch faster than any other QB at the East-West Shrine game. There were a few monster QB's there with great arms (I want to say Skelton was the biggest arm there), but due to poor footwork and slow release, he wasn't beating Kafka in "pop times" if you will.

Wooten is a guy who could realistically sneak into the bottom of the first round, and with that frame, a Chris Canty comparison is a good one. (Of course Canty fell due to some of the same issues Wooten has, but the 3-4 is even more en vogue than then). He'll be a DE in a 3-4 IMHO.

If nothing else, Lebanon can be our own "scouting report finder"...saving all of us the work.

Thanks for bringing any info you have Lebanon, the rest will sort itself out.

I think it's pretty dick for everyone to assume he's only regurgitating what he's read from scouts.

Hopefully you're not lumping me in with that, I said at worst he's doing that. It doesn't matter even if he is, it's still good information from what I've seen.

I am blaming you and you alone. When I said everyone, I actually meant phinstd only.

Well good, my master plan is now falling into place...

Back to the subject.

The other QB I am interested in is PSU's Darryl Clark. He looked pretty darned good against Northwestern, throwing some deep outs and some great vertical routes. But I know that he really hasn't been that impressive this year.

Any thoughts on Clark, Lebanon, or any of the guys who regurgitate scouting reports?

Apparently scouts are now talking up some Crompton dude as the second best QB prospect behind Bradford.



Honestly, I think Kiper and these guys change and adjust their rankings as much to keep themselves in the news as to reflect recent scouting info.
