Jeff George had a cannon for an arm on the other side of the spectrum.

Hey bob, your Banana team is sending a bust to my Packers, thanks.

I am assuming you mean Lacey, but you will eat those words. That boy is a beast and will be a better pick that the couple of Backs picked above him. At any rate it gives your QB some room now with a good back in the backfield.

Belichick has a serious hard on for Rutgers.

Lol Rams. Got a nice WVU WR combo there.

[The Iron Horse]

Nice move the by the Rams, keeping the duo of Austin and Bailey together, nice, nice move Rams.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Tom Brady, and Joe Montana both had avg arm strength, too.

Yeah so does Ryan Leaf, Leinart, and Craig Krenzel

Belechick's son is a LS there btw.

Lennay Kekua :bj: Teo

I think you mean Jamarcus Russell ....and he did!

Yeah, i just picked a random player. Orton was drafted high because he threw it through the uprights from the 50 yard line though. My point is one variable, such as height, bench press reps, 40, etc., aren't enough to base a draft stock on.

NFL Network ftw.

Miami should get Swope for Tannehill to throw to

Miami already has Brian Hartline as a starting WR.....I think it would be a violation of NFL policy to have two European-Americans starting at WR on the same team....

have you seen a Packers game? Our oline sucks, they can barely pass protect, they can't create a crease to save their life. Lacy is not a supreme athlete. He is slow, and injured. This is no transcending talent. He is the new Alex Green. But, in Ted Thompson I trust (although, even he makes a few bad picks here and there, this will be one). He ain't going to do jackshit for Rodgers but carry his shoulder pad.

I have seen some packers games and yes your oline sucks, but this guy has good ability to make players miss and he has lots of strength. Yes he is injured right now with a hamstring problem, but that happens throughout a season. He is a good back and you will remember you said it everytime he carries for 100 plus. All they have to do is open a small hole and he hits it hard.

Literally when you were describing Barkley in first paragraph, it sounds just like Leinart! Lol

Leinart had avg arm strength as well, he reminds me of him. Bad sign...IMO

I didn't see the touch and accuracy from Leinart that I saw from Matt Barkley. Matt Leinart also didn't really demonstrate outstanding leadership skills either. Before Leinart was drafted I had questions about his accuracy personally.

Very true, but it does happen sometimes. Teams/GM overlook one certain quality bc it seems superior and don't focus on the player as a whole.

Look at Jamarcus size and strength. Arm strength was all I saw in him, accuracy avg if that, speed no, and all the rest is well...you know

 

[The Iron Horse]

actually, Ryan Leaf had a strong arm.

CNN/SI - NFL Draft - Ryan Leaf - April 13, 1998

It has been so long it is hard to say. We will see, you never know...especially from this fuckn draft....smh

Whenever I think of the Packers offensive line I think about the 8 sacks the Seahawks notched up against you guys in the first half on MNF and how one of your offensive tackles who gave up ~4 sacks was one of the most vocal about the Golden Tate catch. Always thought that was a bit ironic...
