Palehosefan Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 I've been a fan of his since his Bradenton, FL days where he and his teammate Jawarski Pollock were supposed to commit to UNC together. He was planning on playing some hoops also, but then Bobby talked him into a visit and he suddenly decided to stay home. He was a top 5 QB coming out of high school and a very nice SG. I've always been impressed with his athleticism and arm strength, but never his accuracy. Maybe that has changed though, otherwise I think he will have his fair share of struggles. But he's definitely a sleeper and if he can get with a great QB coach, he could be a tremendous steal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witesoxfan Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 Probably one of my favorites in the draft...but I am not sure how much he will do at the next level. He has all kinds of ability, and if he can figure s*** out, he could be one of the biggest sleepers in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I witnessed his garbage when I was at FSU... He should thank his lucky stars for football ability because he did some messed-up s*** not too long ago... Football players were treated like royalty, many, including him, drove loaded SUV's, and had everything going for them, yet he finds ways to get accused of stealing a TEAMMATE'S wallet, and the big stolen checks fiasco. What an asshole... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpy2121 Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Anyone have any idea what round he's going to go in? I would like to have the Bears give him a look, but since they dont have a lot of picks I dont think theyll take him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T R U Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 3-4 Round is where he will go.. If a team REALLY gets a hard on for him, 2nd round... but I think the 3rd round is more of a real situation for him.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a team REALLY gets a hard on for him, 2nd round... but I think the 3rd round is more of a real situation for him.. That would be late 2nd round too...if he goes within the first 50 picks, that team pretty much has to be set everywhere else. I am thinking early 3rd, and I think it will be Arizona.

Thats a possibility Saban likes Campbell and Frye a lot too, no? I have read that, and that is why they are trying to get the Surtain deal done, or trying to talk Tampa into trading up. So basically any of the second tier QBs could and probably will be headed to Miami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That opens up a hell of a lot of doors now, doesn't it? Knowing that...I honestly have no idea what the f*** is going to happen past 2 then, mainly because I have no idea what direction Cleveland is going in, though I'd imagine if Miami stays at 2 that Cleveland will probably try and move down. Will be interesting to watch at the very least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 04:46 PM) Cleveland may take Edwards. They do have a need at WR...as a lot of teams do need a big playmaking receiver with the talent of a Braylon Edwards...but I just gotta feeling that will either be something they address elsewhere or at some other time, and that they need more picks to try and turn that horrible joint around. Another thing to consider is that Romeo Crennell is taking over, and if he is taking over Belichick's offensive system too - which I assume he is - they really do not have a need for a big time playmaking receiver. New England has won 3 Super Bowls in 4 years, and they've had David Givens, Deion Branch, and Troy Brown as their top 3 receivers, so I just think they need WR's who will catch the ball, and they need a QB who can make the necessary throws, ala Tom Brady. And even knowing that, I still don't see Braylon lasting till 4 (though he very well could, and it wouldn't surprise me either) I think I will end up getting my mock draft in at the last second...and even then, there is a very solid chance that it is wrong.

My entry will be last minute as well (as it should be). This draft is really up for grabs. It's going to be real interesting on draft day. I'm very excited to see what kind of talent this draft produces. Put it this way, if Braylon is there at #4, he'll be suiting up in Blue and Orange.

ChWRoCk2 Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 (edited) in my opinion i think he is one of the biggest sleepers of the draft, he seems like the tom brady of the draft, sounds like he could be going to the packers, panthers, browns, niners, and cardinals Edited April 19, 2005 by chi-guy2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady did not have the physical tools to be a first round pick, but had the intangibles, all kinds of maturity, and actually graduated. McPherson has all kinds of ability, but his intangibles may be in question, his maturity has made him fall a ton(though he seems to have cleaned up a bit), and was kicked out of school.

I could also see GB take a look at him. I think GB will take Frye, personally. Just looking at the MAC...it is pretty crazy to think about how many good pro QBs they are producing. Roethlisberger, Culpepper, Pennington, Leftwich, and Frye if he ends up being good too, and there may be some I am forgetting. That's a lot of QBs for a mid-major.
