Quote:From his discussions with actual scouts, Russ Lande is saying none of the scouts he's talked to believe these QBs are franchise/premier quality, and the only one close is Manziel.  He states Bortles' reviews are widespread (some don't like him but thinks the Texans could take him,) and everyone likes but does not love Bridgewater.

Contrast that with the nonsense we're hear him spouting, and I certainly know who I believe has a clue and who doesn't.

 

Lande makes a world of sense, and explains a lot about what we're hearing outside the noise of the clown horns.

 

No surprise that Lande agrees with you, and you think he makes a lot of sense.  

 

Lande believed that Nassib was going to be the guy that the Bills were targeting.  As last as his final mock draft last year.  They targeted a Quarterback -- just not the one he thought they would.  They instead took E.J. Manuel.

 

Personally I think Peter Bukowski makes sense with what he said (even though he's not a scout)

 

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, geneva, sans-serif;font-size:11px;">No, Bridgewater isn't a once-in-a-generation talent like Andrew Luck, but that doesn't mean he can't be an effective NFL quarterback. Furthermore, despite Bridgewater not having comparable physical talent to players like Stafford, some evaluators believe Bridgewater has the acumen and confidence to be a superior NFL player.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, geneva, sans-serif;font-size:11px;">In other words, opinions vary on just how good Bridgewater is, but the consensus -- though not unanimous -- is that he's good enough as a prospect to bring value as a potential No. 1 overall pick, especially for a team in desperate need of a quarterback.
