Boy there's just something about those Gooner Sooner QB's isn't there??

Good thing Pat is the only Big Whatever QB worth a shit. Thank goodness the stench of that conference avoided him.

But the Bears and other teams at the top of the draft will have his medical records. So who cares?

The greatest QB you've ever watched play is a Big 12 product. Enjoy that nugget rolling around in there, it's a happy thought.

I don't care where he's from and I want all other teams to draft the rest of the shit bags and all fail miserably

To be fair to Hurts.

****ing Sirianni is asstarded. FFS he hired a thrice failed ex-Brother****ing Cheatriot ****bag to be his DC last year. Dude is reeling and throwing Hurts under the bus.

Hurts isn't Mahomes, but don't lump the guy in with weeping vaginas like Kyler and Caleb.

Red flags are: painting your nails, crying to your momma, asking for ownership of the team who is about to draft you, refusing medical exams at the combine...

You’re remembering what you want to remember. Take a look here. This is from his official draft profile courtesy of NFL.com:

https://www.nfl.com/prospects/cam-ne...b-2c25062be531

He's competitive and vocal on the field, but has had several off-the-field issues and his character is in question.

…


Numerous off the field issues worth investigating

Here is an article also highlighting his off-the-field issues:

"Cam Newton's character has been repeatedly called into question. We have accusations of him and his father shopping him around to the school with the fattest wallet. We have accusations of academic fraud, grand theft, obstruction of justice and destruction of someone else's laptop.”

"That's a whole lot of red flags…”

…

Cam Newton started his collegiate career at the University of Florida, playing two seasons there (2007 - 2008). However, he chose to transfer from Florida following an arrest after he bought a stolen computer in November 2008. The charges were later dropped in December 2009.

Per FoxSports.com, Newton also breached the school's honor code by putting his name on another peer's work and turning it in as his own

On top of that, Newton did have a long and successful career. He was washed by his 30th birthday, but he still scored 250 TDs before then, in just eight NFL seasons. This ****er averaged 30+ TDs for nearly a decade, won an MVP and was the engine that drove a shitty franchise to a Super Bowl.

Oh yeah, he's not a weepy pussy or anything but there's something true to his lack of outward leadership. He just doesn't have that part in him. The rest of his game is admirable

And all is fair in love and slandering oklahoma

Caleb could be a world class huddler like Case Keenum and I just haven't seen the clips yet.

I haven't kept up with this thread, so it's probably been discussed, but I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill with these medical exams.

Standard practices change. It used to be that if you were healthy you did the damn combine drills. It's now quite common to see prospects be selective about the drills they run when at the combine. I'm sure people wrinkled their faces funny about the first guy to turn down combine drills, and now it's a complete nothingburger. Caleb isn't against getting medically examined. He's just against getting medically examined by teams who aren't going to draft him. It's a waste of his time. Just as several QBs said, "Why am I doing these drills for scouts from other teams who won't draft me when I'm going to workout privately for a bunch of these teams anyway?"

If you want to question the other stuff, knock yourself out. I don't really have an opinion on it other than the weird crying thing he did. And I could have sworn the ownership stake thing was something he didn't actually ask for and was fake news.

I just think some people are REEEEALLY overthinking this one. That's okay. People in draft media once tried to argue the Colts should go RGIII over Luck, too. It's the modern era of NFL football and there sits the ideal modern era NFL QB prospect. You think he's arrogant and won't take well to the pressure of the league? I don't know what he's like as a person or how coachable he is, but given what just about everybody has seen on tape, he's going to have to have some serious personality concerns that come up in your interview and evaluation that go beyond painting his nails.

Man, I just don't know about this Patrick Mahomes guy. Look at the company he keeps. Brother is an annoying high schooler who loves dancing on the internet, girlfriend seems to rub people the wrong way at games, and his dad has a history with drunk driving. Mom is nuts, too.

He makes some incredible plays on the field for sure, but I just don't know if that's enough for me to risk the pick. I think you gotta roll with Deshaun Watson. Almost no red flags personality wise, and looks to be the perfect leader who is beloved by teammates. There's a zero percent chance that guy will end up being a creepy ass pervert who sexually harasses dozens of women into doing butt stuff at massage therapy!

If I am Chicago I am taking Williams unless I am 100% confident that Fields has what it takes to lead that franchise to a SB. I do think that Williams is the most over analyzed player in this draft. He’s the most talented player at the most critical position. I would rather roll the dice that he’s the guy and miss than pass on him and watch him become an elite QB. Could they fail in that? Sure. He isn’t as much of a sure thing that Luck was, but they can’t afford to miss out on another wildly talented QB like they did with Mahomes.

Sometimes, you just need to bleach it out and start fresh. Kind of like white sheets, some stains you just want to forget

This is the future I envision for Caleb, only it's dudes.
