7.31 YPA, lulz. He's actually regressed there since his sophomore year.

dont know who peter smith is or his credentials when it comes to scouting but here is a detailed in depth evaluation of derek carr as a prospect

 

Quote:<p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">There will be a lot of focus on the offense the Bulldogs run because of the number of passes that are behind the line of scrimmage in the form of bubble screens or quick passes.  These plays work to help the offensive line in pass blocking and to supplement a less than stellar running game.  Getting past those throws, the results are incredibly impressive.

<p style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Projecting towards the NFL, Carr is as gifted an athlete as this draft will have to offer and between his arm strength and his mobility and particularly his feet.  Carr’s arm is elite and he is remarkable in the amount of throws he can make.  He also moves really well in the pocket and when he gets out and moves.  His accuracy is extremely impressive as well and his overall arm talent is prototypical for the position.  Carr is also a football lifer and an absolute grinder who works extremely hard to get better at his craft with remarkable toughness and leadership that is evident on the field.  The question marks with Carr come down to decision making as he is a gun slinger at times (and proud of it) as well as just employing mechanics consistently.  The negatives with Carr are small and correctable and as a result, he grades out as a first round pick and a potential franchise quarterback in the 2014 NFL Draft that could easily find his name called in the top 5-10 picks.

Thank you for the parrotting thunder....do YOU have an opinion. ..and don't worry if you haven't seen him play...you seemed fine with forming one on Bridgewater without seeing him....I know it took awhile to drum up the two scouts who had anything bad to say about the kid...but you did it
If that RV sales place wants Tebow in Jax bad enough to take out a billboard saying as much.....they should just HIRE him.

Sometimes the numbers are right and other times you have to look between the numbers...


2009 draft eligible QB class:


1) Greg McElroy, Alabama--9.54 YPA--71%--4:1 TD:INT Ratio


2) Cam Newton, Auburn--10.19 YPA--66%--4:1



3) Andy Dalton, TCU--9.04 YPA--66%--4:1

4) Scott Tolzien, Wisconsin--9.24 YPA--73%--3:1


5) Ricky Stanzi, Iowa--8.71 YPA--64%--4:1


6) Ryan Mallett, Arkansas--9.41 YPA--65%--3:1



7) Tyrod Taylor, Virginia Tech--8.71 YPA--60%--5:1


8) Colin Kaepernick, Nevada--8.42 YPA--65%--3:1


9) Mike Hartline, Kentucky--7.85 YPA--66%--3:1


10) T. J. Yates, North Carolina--8.10 YPA--67%--2:1



11) Taylor Potts, Texas Tech--6.76 YPA--67%--4:1


12) Ryan Colburn, Fresno State--7.83 YPA--63%--3:1


13) Carson Coffman, Kansas State--7.83 YPA--65%--2:1


14) Adam Froman, Louisville--7.49 YPA--61%--3:1


15) Ben Chappell, Indiana--6.82 YPA--63%--3:1


16) Christian Ponder, Florida State--6.84 YPA--62%--3:1



17) Adam Weber, Minnesota--7.28 YPA--56%--2:1


18) Blaine Gabbert, Missouri--6.71 YPA--63%--2:1



19) Jeff Van Camp, Florida Atlantic--7.34 YPA--57%--1:1


20) Jake Locker, Washington--6.82 YPA--55%--2:1



With that said I think the magical number for almost guaranteed success is 10+ YPA. If a QB can hit this number, regardless of the style of offense, there is a high chance to succeed at the next level. Its a hard feat to do at any level and just so happens the highest ranked QBs in this draft (Bridgewater, Mariota) have reached it.

If Fresno State wins out they could get a BCS bowl.

I like him a lot but I hate the offense he plays in. And I would be super afraid of laying the next 5 years of the franchise on him.

And that's why there are guys who get paid the big bucks to make those decisions.

<p style="background-color:transparent;">Fresno State QB Derek Carr has accepted an invitation to attend the 2014 Senior Bowl.


Carr is going to tear it up in passing drills. The senior has a ridiculous arm to hit receivers at every level of the field, but can throw with a poor base. he has improved versus a pass rush but still relies on his strong arm when falling away from throws. He will likely be the top quarterback selected that is attending the event.
