re: Auburn Beat Your Team w/ a DB as QB

Maybe so, but he doesn't look like it when he runs. Wilson just looks quicker on the edge. Nick does have some break away speed once in the open.

Nick Marshall is kind of like Amari Cooper, faster than he appears. He just glides when he's in the open field. I feel like Russell Wilson is quicker on the edge, so I'll agree with you there.

I'm still amazed that Nick Marshall gets so much hype as a cornerback or safety. We've seen him run, we've seen him pass. He was a quarterback all through high school (set passing records), in Junior College and at Auburn. He was only a cornerback one year at Georgia. I think he's an exceptional athlete and scouts agree, but it's a tall task to ask him to make the switch after player there one year since being in high school.
