Interesting. The little tape I saw on him had him throwing a number of very soft balls. Glad arm strength isn't an issue.

Well you see, his arm is so powerful he once threw the ball through 3 guys. Now he's dealing w/ psychological issues. Can't believe you're so hardhearted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Has some good highlights...NE was all over it for some reason too. They know a little about quarterbacks.

Only thing is he kinda reminds me of this little man...

I'm rooting for the Romomagic. It's funny how *everyone* saw it.

here is another comment from tlg1970 in the same btb article

"I actually knew exactly who DiNucci was when we selected him as I’m a Pitt alum with season tickets and watched him play for Pitt his freshman and sophomore years. Although he was a highly touted recruit in high school (was first high school QB in PA to throw for over 4,000 yards in a season) I didn’t see anything special in him when he played for Pitt, he actually lost the starting job to a freshman his sophomore year and thats why he transfered to JM.
Watching his tape at JM, he looked like a different QB, he really improved a lot with his decision making, reads and accuracy. Hopefully, he’ll continue to get better and become Dak’s backup. I’ll be rooting for him since he is a former Panther."

I don't know why people tend to care so much about arm strength. If it was so important Jamarcus Russell would be in the hall of fame.

I remember people being wowed that DeMarcus Russell could throw a football 50 yards while on his knees. You know, that “throw from your knees play” that everyone runs.:) Russell had a football fastball but unfortunately he couldn’t place it in the hands of his teammates.

I’m actually pleased with the DiNucci pick. He looks like a potential good project player/backup QB.I think it’s smart to draft a QB every now and then. But it’s downright humorous to see the anointing oil being sloshed around here as if we drafted a HOFer. There’s a reason he was available in round 7. Doesn’t mean he won’t pan out, just means it’s a very long shot.

Starting to think Pitt can't develop QBs. I went to University of Delaware and we were fortunate enough to get a Pitt Transfer... Joe Flacco :)

I'm sorry, that's just too far. We are now in make believe land.
Hitting 100 mph on gun with football - sure
Stronger than Hercules - I could buy it
Better footwork than the dude from riverdance - can accept that
Stronger arm than Chuck Norris - GET OUT OF HERE!!

We should pick up Uncle Rico. He’ll win us a Super Bowl, no doubt in my mind! He can throw a football a quarter mile!

Romo???
Click to expand...
Romo had taken a few preseason snaps before he became the apple of anyone's eye. Add the fact that we were coming off Chutch, Henson, Testeverde, and Bledsoe. We currently have a good quarterback and people already fawning over a Day 3 pick from James Madison.

He did that at a high level in college.

He played under center too.

I like everything about this QB except his frame and his arm strength.

He needs to squat a lot and build those chicken legs.

Lol this dude isn't a RB. Looks like he is built like Rodgers.
