Highlights from season ending press conference with Caldwell and Bradley

Quote:That is not true. Ryan Mallett had QB concerns, too. His accuracy was not impressive because he rockets throws that should be touch passes, and he is incredibly non-mobile, which wouldn't be an issue if his pocket presence was above average.

 

Mallet has one of the strongest arms in the NFL and has a great frame. He isn't a "#1 overall" type player, though.
 

Mallett might not have been the QB prospect Manning/ Luck/ Bridgewater is, few are. The mobility thing was so overblown, I remember posting a link of his highlights which destroyed that claim of him being a statue. He might not have been Randall Cunningham, but he also wasn't totally immobile. He also displayed more than enough pocket mobility which is more important than being a scrambler anyway, As for the touch claim, maybe he did rocket a few but thats coachable/ fixable and I saw enough examples of good touch passes from Mallett in college that shows he can change speeds and throw accurately. He also had a great intermediate and deeper throw ability where he could beat tight coverages and good defense consistently. 

 

He'd be prone to the occasional Cutler/ Favre type "what the hell was that" decision, but thats coachable too. The stuff that cannot be coached up, Mallett has.
