Quote:I love Nick Foles, I was right about him being a top 5 NFL QB when he came out of Arizona, so can I get the benefit of the doubt on the fact that Manziel is worth the number one overall pick.

Slow down. Just one season happened. Be patient give him some wear on the tire treds before you crown him.

 

I like Foles too but I need to see how defenses respond to the Chip Kelly offense before making judgement

 

These are the reasons why I think Bridgewater could be a great/elite qb in the NFL...

 

1. He has excellent pocket presence, if there pressure coming around the edges, he knows to step up in the pocket. He knows how to manipulate the pocket to get it to work for him, 

2. He has an accurate passer, He throws with patience, timing, anticipation and leads his wrs in space, which happen to fit perfect withing out offense

3. He is tough, he takes hits and bounces back up, very mentally tough and is used to over coming obstacles in his life.

4. Superb football IQ, ran his offense at the LOS at Louisville, knows exactly whats going on on the field all the time, rarely makes mistakes but not afraid at all to throw the ball down field. great at reading his progressions

5. Leadership, not a rah rah guy but Louisville folks had the belief that if the ball is in his hands, they will win

6.  Fearless, goes hand to hand with his pocket presence and toughness, has played behind a porous o-line at louisville and found ways to produce. Taken his fair of hits as the ball is leaving his hands and delivered strikes on those hits

7. Can make all the throws, has a good to great arm

7. He has room to grow physically, he can put on 10-15 and increase his arm velocity along with finally discovering to torque is lower body into throws.
