I thought - in the Carolina game - that Ponder reminded me of Rodgers moving around and out of the pocket.

Fair enough. I'm not sure he's going to be a top flite QB either but he is starting as a rookie and that is pretty good. Its fair to say, I think, that he has a long way to go.

Alex Smith started as a rookie.

Alex Smith started as a rookie.

So did Peyton Manning.

I thought he was pretty impressive against the Broncos as well.

I thought i read on the bottom of ESPN today that Landry Jones was staying in school, but i can't find a link anywhere. Has anyone heard anything on his status?

Haven't heard anything about that. But...

Dion Caputi
#Memphis NT Dontari Poe, listed at 6'5" 350 lbs., has entered the 2012 #NFLdraft. 30-starts in college; graded as the top 3-4 NT in draft.

Thanks clyde. I was a little upset when i thought i saw that.

Haven't really seen much of Poe as I'm behind on the DL prospects. What's your opinion of him?

I think he has a lot to work on. I don't think he should go anywhere near where he's projected to go.

Here's a little something on Jones.

David Wilson is also apparently really close to announcing that he's leaving VT. Nothing official yet, though.

I'm not saying that Barkley is better than Smith, I'm wondering why that matters. What does that have to do with him being a first round pick or not? He can only hope that he gets 7 years to develop into a passable QB, right?

ouch!

You guys should look at getting LaMichael James in the first round if he is still available.

I really like Turbin. I hope we can grab him around the 5th-6th. He can be a very effective 3rd down back. His speed and hands out of the backfield will be welcomed. Add in his surprising strength from his 220 lb frame spells out potential replacement for Gore (later of course).

Clyde, any word on Dobson yet? How long does it take for the players paperwork to be evaluated?

No word yet. I'd LOVE for us to grab him in the second round, though. He's Brandon Marshall type talent, IMO.

Georgia NT John Jenkins is returning.

Is this years draft expected to be a good one or a deep one? Also what positions are deeper with skill? I dont get to follow college ball a lot so i was wondering what you guys who do think of it?

To me this season seems deep as far as having alot of solid depth players. It seems that there are 2 or 3 projected stars (Luck, RG3, Kalil).
I see the deepest positions being along the dline (3-4 rushbackers included). No stars, just lots of solid depth players.
