Quote:I still have a magazine at home (USA Today Draft Edition) that has Gabbert #1.  I don't think anyone could have foreseen Gabbert being in fear of taking a hit.  His lack of heart came out of nowhere.  The QB draw at the 7 yard line against the Rams pretty much summed up his career here.  Instead of making a move for a TD, he cringed into the fetal position at the 4 yard line about 2 seconds prior to getting hit.

 

There were concerns with his accuracy though. The weekend after the draft, ESPN Classic showed the Missouri-Oklahoma game from his junior year. That was his "signature moment" in college. I watched the game expecting to be blown away by his performance. I saw a QB who was never under center and had trouble hitting receivers downfield. I was hoping maybe I was just missing something that the scouts saw.
