Quote:I'm still not sure why ppl are still high on Mallett.  I thought he was already a forgotten QB from the 2011 draft class.

 

Because he was the #1 QB prospect from that draft class. He's been saddled behind Brady. What do you want/ expect?? He's not going to start over Brady.... :blink: IMO, he just needs an "opportu'ny" (Gusbradleyspeak) to start somewhere and the rest will be history. 

 

That guy completed NFL throws routinely in college vs some of the best defenses and tight coverages. I understand he also had his flaws, but almost every QB does. Mallett's strengths are the stuff that succeeds at the pro game and he has some talents that cannot be coached - meaning you either have those skills or you don't. His weaknesses could be coached out. (i.e. some questionable decision making)
