Pec strength on a bench is almost 180 from throwing a football, I love his arm strength and having him behind Kolb is a freaking joke, but his arm strength has almost no connection with his bench press abilities.

Now I KNOW you just make stuff up, and don't really know WHAT the heck you're talking about... here's what NFLDraftCountdown had to say about his prospects as a quarterback... pay particular attention to the first sentence:

Might have to change positions at the next level...Still very raw as a passer and only has about two years of experience...Still needs a lot of work when it comes to mechanics, technique and fundamentals...A long-term project regardless of which position he settles in at.

You have your opinion and I have mine.

A whole lot of people though Romo was going to be some garbage.

Same with Brady, people like yourself which is real opinionated and very biased seem to overlook guys like Brady and Romo.

You say in your post that Stanbeck has great footwork and that accuracy is on of his main specialties. I guess I don't know what you mean by either of these statements. His mechanices leave a great deal to be desired IMO and he's only a 51.4 completion percentage passer for his entire career at Washington. His best season was his Jr. season where he passed for 54.2%. He is a good athlete, no question, but he has not proven that he can be a good QB, even in college IMO. Smith has not shown well at any of the All Star games or at the Combine IMO. No way has he shown better then Beck IMO. Palmer has all the tools but none of the performance to substantiate a higher ranking then Beck IMO. The only three QBs you might say could grade out better then Beck at this point, IMO, are Quinn, [View Full Quote]
Right on about Beck, brother.

If we drafted Troy Smith we could nickname him "Shorty". LOL

No, I have FACTS, and you have absolutely nothing...

In no way, shape or form is a quarterback whose career completion percentage is BARELY over 50 per cent "accurate"... his completion percentage is a FACT, which stands in stark rebuttal to your completely ridiculous suggestion...

Then there's the FACT that most scouts don't even think he'll wind up playing quarterback in the NFL... they wouldn't feel that way if he really was "accurate", as you suggested...

Just as you suggested that Tank Tyler was a good pass rusher... the plain and simple truth is, you're runnin' off at the mouth without really knowin' what you've talkin' about...

And FACTS have been provided to prove that assertion...

An opinion completely unsubstantiated by anything factual is worthless...

Actually, I was quite high on the Cowboys' signing of Romo... you could look it up...

Just another OPINION, utterly unsupported by any FACTS...

You have no idea how foolish doing that makes you look... you don't even seem to realize that even the mods in here are laughing at your foolishness...

Oh sure. Many of the people on ESPN and NFL channell were shaking their heads. Palmer flat out said the guy had spent his time in a gimmick offense in both high school and college and looked lost at the Senior Bowl.

Drew Stanton will be a better player than Kolb, trust me... Stanton is the perfect fit for the west-coast offense; I am honestly glad that Kolb is on the eagles rather than Stanton so we won't have to face him.
