Quote:Interesting information on Ted:

Wonderlics were just released, and Ted was only six points higher than Garrard with a 20.

 

A lot of folks repeat the "trust the tape" mantra as well.  But...

Add to that Mayock's revelation that when he went back to look at tape after Ted's poor Pro Day, he was not impressed (he had done little or no tape study on Ted prior to then, but was mostly following the herd.)  So, IMO this "NFL ready" talk has been a bit premature and perhaps misguided.

 

 

 

Neither have I.  What did you think I meant about being "wrong?"  I was referring to my opinion being wrong about Ted, that I don't believe we would or should take him as high as #3.

 

Why do you believe that? Because you don't think he is worth it. Thats fine, but you don't make the pick. You're in no position to know if the man in charge agrees with you.

 

I don't see the fuss about Watkins, I wouldn't draft him at 3, do I think Dave Caldwell shares my opinion? No idea, but if I said we won't draft him at 3 because in my very humble opinion he doesn't look like a game changer, I'd rightly be told I'm an idiot.

 

See the difference?
