Qualities to look for in a quarterback

Quote:You can't be that stupid, Haterade. If Wilson was everything you want a quarterback to be, why was he a third round pick?
Because teams are stupidly stubborn about measurables.
Quote:Peyton Manning ran a hurry-up no-huddle offense at Indianapolis, so defensive linemen could not get to him fast enough. He also had Pro Bowlers on his offensive line. I don't think he would be as successful in Jacksonville because in Denver, players are sacking him, forcing him to fumble, and knocking him down. That said, I think having great pocket awareness andla high football IQ do help make up for his lack of mobility to a certain extent.
Manning linemen in Indianapolis may have been pro bowlers but that popularity contest doesn't mean anything. Truth is, they weren't very good and he made them look much better.



My criteria for good QB potential :

-Ability to extend plays from the pocket

-Decision making

-Accuracy


That is all, the rest can be managed by a good offense and good coaching. Too many prospects do not have those attributes however.
