    LOL, you disagree with him so you pretend it doesn't exist and angle it towards someone who agrees with you? Is that that you just did?

    Rob Rang is NFLDraftScout.com's NFL Draft insider and Dane Brugler is a senior draft analyst for CBS.....but yeah, you disagree with them so I guess they don't count.

    Ok I can give them that, however they never really went into any detail about how it mattered.

    Like a last point, didn't mean much to them apparently or they would have expounded upon it

    It's not like you don't cherry pick from analysts who support your views.

    Also to truly evaluate a quarterback you also have to watch tape and scout the defenses they play to see if they have the tendency to get beat on the same plays by other QBs.

    If you don't go through the trouble of doing that, you're pretty much just watching highlights and not truly evaluating the QB. It's alot of work that goes into breaking down tape on players.

    Well it should be self-explanatory. Also your buddy Cosell is the same guy who talked up RG3 as a better QB than Andrew Luck and who said Ryan Nassib was the best QB in last year's draft and the guy who said Kaepernick was "exactly the same guy as Gabbert, except he has a funky release and plays at Nevada." even worse, he meant it as a complement.

    I usually don't bother quoting other analysts one way or the other because I prefer my own analysis most of the time. I was only bringing them up in this case to show that they in fact do mention the level of competition.

    If you paid attention he was talking in pure theoretics. RG3 has better physical attributes than Luck. As we see that doesn't matter to actually play

    Whats wrong with Nassib? Have you seen him play in the NFL to pass judgement?????

    Kaep is benefiting from Harbaugh so thats a draw

    So is his comments about Bridgewater "purely theoretical"? Does that mean we can ignore them the way the Colts rightly ignored his advice to draft RG3?

    The only person in this thread who actually seems to have done any analysis is old man rock who pretty much shredded most of your complaints about Bridgewater a few pages back which you've conveniently ignored.

    OMR already schooled him. He want's none of that. He would rather keep rehashing b.s to keep his own mind at ease.

    This thread has become even more annoying than the Trayvon Martin thread in the D&D

    Ah, gotcha. So this is what supposedly " shredded most of your complaints about Bridgewater"? Let's see how he did!

    I point out that in watching tape on him he is prone to making what would be inaccurate passes by NFL standards......he then "shreds" this by essentially saying "nuh-uh" and later posting his college completion percentage despite the fact that I previously pointed out why this is often unreliable. Consider me impressed.

    I point out Bridgewater's size based on reported height and weight and he responds with anecdotal evidence suggesting that a picture shows that Bridgewater is not 195 pounds and that supposedly he must be taller than 6'3 because in a picture he looks taller than Devante Parker who is listed at 6'3.....amazing evidence, I'm ready to convict.

    I point out that he always wears gloves so that could indicate he has small hands, he responds with "nuh-uh his coach said..." Breathtaking analysis.

    LOL, yes I was "schooled" by someone posting a bunch of anecdotal evidence and saying "nuh-uh". Amazing job.

    I suggest you go back and edit this post and take out the pictures and links so it looks more like above. It'll make your response look more believable. Otherwise it kind of makes you look like a foolish Old Man. ;)

    The real problem is a handful of dense tools have completely ruined any decent conversation.
