As long as he remains on the madden roster there is hope

Super Bowl champ Brian Witherspoon

Quote:Lol.


Brunell would put him to sleep.

 

Gabbert is 6'4 235 as fast as Brunell was at 6'1 215 and has a cannon arm.

 

His biggest problem was and is, he sucks at football. The list of Jaguars QBs who were actually better players than Gabbert is very very long. Purely from a being physically gifted standpoint not so much. 

Hardy Nickerson was easily one of the best Jaguars LBs when he was here, but he was already an old guy about to retire when he played in Jacksonville. In his prime I have to think he was quite the athletic freak... and the same goes for Carnell Lake.


 

Also, I'm wondering how Allen Robinson stacks up in this discussion. I'm seen some mind-blowing stuff in terms of sheer athleticism out of him.

You cant measure or coach "heart."

True but this thread is about physical/measurable gifts.


If it was best players. Gabbert wouldn't even be in the discussion. Hell Trent Edwards is better than him.

His issue wasnt sucking at football, it was lack of heart.

Taylor and Boselli are no brained a. But,Tony Brackens could dominate a game when he wanted to. He should be at least in the conversation.

Ramsey or Matt Jones

If we're going guess empirically then out of the last dozen or so years Ramsey and Alualu are both 99% SPARQ athletes so I'd have to say them. 

Justin Blackmon.  His extra activities killed it.  But Gifts alone this decade Blackmon. For Jimmy to say he was better than him out of college, speaks volumes.

In terms of physical intimidation you would be hard pressed to find a more intimidating DT to play against than Big John

Very true.  

Leftwich?

Blackmon was a fairly average athlete by NFL standards.

I would've said Ramsey or Matt Jones but looking at the numbers someone posted above I think I'll go Ramsey.
