  • Fresh CBS mocks, both guys have Johnny going 5th to the Vikings. He's rocketing up. One has Carr to the Browns, another has them waiting until 25 to take Mettenberger (wouldn't love that). Both have the Browns taking a QB and WR in round one. Both have Carr in round one now.

    Sammy Watkins or Allen Robinson could be a good picks.

    Does the David Carr experience put anyone off of the potential of going for Derek Carr? (These guys must be at least 12 years apart in age.)

    If Buffalo needs an OLB, then Khalil Mack would be a natural for them. IMO Browns could use an ILB....but apparently none are rated high enough to go first round?

  • Not amongst the Sr's so depends on which ILBs declare, GIP.

    Tennesee's A.J. Johnson is a highly regarded Jr. He's 6'2 - 243 and 4.8-ish fast.

    As for Carr... no, being David's little bro doesn't DQ him. David actually had a chance to be a good NFL QB, but he was so sorely abused behind the expansion Texans' porous O-line.

    What should at least should give folks pause on Derek is that he posts big numbers against weak competition. Against quality teams he's like 0 for his career. Much was made of his beating Boise St. for the first time this year. Of course it turns out Boise St. (6-3) has slumped a little in 2013.

    I've only seen one of his games this year, the Boise St. victory. He has a chance of being good, but is still an undisciplined wild card. I need to see more of him.

  • Just watched Alo's cut-up of Carr V. Wyoming at Draft Breakdown. A few things:

    1. Very quick release, throws with serious RPMs. Spins it.

    2. 3/4 release, similar to a lot of NFL QBs.

    3. VERY athletic and nimble, throws great on the run.

    4. Keeps plays alive and eyes downfield.

    He can absolutely run some RO for Chud. I think he's my favorite right now (among the guys we can get to). He's kind of a bigger, faster, stronger-armed Brian Hoyer, but some of what he does looks similar. They'd go well together as mentor and protege', I think.

    Interesting site that I had not come across before.
