I love that QBs are such a sure thing. I just hope JJ doesn't declare after this season, I think he still has some work to get to that projected #1 overall pick.

The only Reason that we don't have more spread QB's in the NFL is because the spread is a newer offense. Once the majority of the schools hop on the bandwagon the number of QB's in the NFL from "Spread" teams will increase. Just look at the top ten QB prospects in this years draft half are from Spread offenses. If its was so OBVIOUS that spread QB's don't do well in the pros why do NFL teams keep drafting them?

For the same reason they drafted Andre Ware.

So there are more spread QB's than pro-style? And GM's rave about spread QB's preparedness for the NFL? Because that's what we're talking about. You lost your way.

Listen a player is a player they either have the talent or not. The NFL finds the talent and grooms it and uses it the best they can. Am I saying all the spread QB's can make it in a Pro system? NO... I am saying that you can't make a broad assumption (especially one this stupid) that most QB's from spread systems flop, its not true. Ill admit that the spread offense does sometimes get simplified which sometimes helps teams win championships... maybe that is why you have no clue what you are talking about.

Can't read it for you. "pro style offenses better prepare you for the NFL". You said dumb comment. That puts me and 32GM's on one side and you on the other.

My issue isn't really with the first part of the statement its the second. But, if you really think coaches care how prepared kids are for the NFL you are wrong. Coaches are ego maniacs who believe they can get more out of the player than anyone else. That's why Jamarcus Russell and Cam Newton went 1st overall. All they care about is talent with a little bit of intangibles.

NFL scouts and player personnel guys loathe spread offenses and spread QB's and they have said it numerous times. I have heard interview after interview about how the spread offenses in high school and now college is drastically reducing the preparedness for the NFL for QB's. Brice Petty from Baylor just came out and said the other day, that I wish I had found a way to prepare for an NFL offense. In general they do not know how to read defenses, coverages, etc. you will have exceptions, but it is a troubling trend for the NFL.

Based on what, exactly? The rest of your post doesn't exactly support this.

Out of curiosity....how are those championship expectations doing for Auburn the last couple of years?

Are y'all looking pretty good this year, or are you folding up like a cheap suit under all of those expectations?

Absolutely. They were talking on The Russilo Show the other day about how there are very few good backups in the league. They pitched around an idea of an NFL sponsored QB academy to make sure these guys were prepared. It's only going to get worse with high school and college teams moving to the spread. When most high schools run it, qb's are less prepared for college, so more colleges will run it. And so on and so forth

I don't know. I think Johnson has managed to have a pretty good career. Cam's receivers? I can't name any of them.

You DO know that Murray holds a ton of SEC records, right? What QB's in the SEC had better stats? I'm curious. Hardware is more of a team thing.

No. You are wrong. It's because a QB cannot run the ball in the NFL and survive. Look at RGIII for just one example.

Only because so many college teams are going to the spread. You won't see NFL teams going to that offense on a regular basis. (See Philadelphia. Not working out so well, is it?)
