Badlands just seems to be an extra special kind of stupid, I think he was just making a point of that.

his point is true though. The NFL consistently reaches on QB's. It's not even a secret. They consistently talk about it during any draft coverage. No NFL scout in their right mind would say Goff/Wentz were the two best prospects in the draft but they were obviously going to go 1/2 because they are qb's.

I know you hate everything griz related but what argument do you have to say he won't if he has a productive year?

Don't quit your day job to become a panty-wearing Mel Kiper. Short order cooks are in hot demand these days. Uh, just for the record, NFL teams don't always draft their highest rated player, they draft to fill a need. Any other facts I can help you with? Neither St. Louis or Philly had these two QBs rated as the best two players in the draft.

Contractions are not proper. "Uh" is not a word. It is a noise. Are you writing or speaking? You should start a new sentence for "they draft to fill a need." You should not start a sentence with a negative word such as "neither." A more effective sentence would be St. Louis and Philly did not have these two QB's rated as the two best players in the draft. So as you can see you should swap the words "two" and "best." You also missed an apostrophe.
Sam A. Blitz said:Everyone on this board is a "pedestrian fan". Let's be clear on that. Sure it is fun to debate sports and the state of Grizzly football. That is why this board exists, but nobody on this board is truly qualified to have anything more than an opinion on a player's talent or pro potential... As Havre pointed out, fans (regardless of their understanding of the game) have absolutely no impact. The only fans that may have much of an impact on the success of the program are the major boosters who provide financial support to better it. Bragging about being an objective football fan is like bragging about being an objective food critic when you've never been a professional chef.
If anyone on here tried to argue football directly with ANY coach on staff the way they spew crap on here, they would get embarrassed, plain and simple. That is why those coaches get paid for their football knowledge and the rest of us are posting on a message board under anonymous names. If any of our opinions were worth anything, we wouldn't need to be on egriz posting them.
Crysakes, some of you are so concerned about being "objective", that you feel the need to put a negative spin on something like this. Can't we just be happy that the guy is getting some publicity and attention? It is sad that some of you are more concerned about your own fragile egos that being supportive of a kid who is working his tail off to win games for a program that you say you support...
Maybe you are just bitter and jealous old men that are angry that you never were anything more than a fan and your opinion is about as important as a Yelp review on Applebees... I know some of you desperately want to feel important, but what a sad way of trying to get attention...
