I don't like reading the above. You draft QB based on arm talent (accuracy/ consistent ball placement) and how they command the position. 

 

The above sounds very similar to reasoning we used to draft Gabbert - measurables over QB ability. Ugh. (Do we still have the same scouts here as in 2011??)

 

 

I even remember people defending Gabbert by saying that despite him playing in Missouri that he was allegedly a better "pro style" prospect than most in that draft.
