Stephen Mcgee Fans

[Silverstar]

McGee is still a good prospect and worth developing IMO.

 

[CATCH17]

I'm not against developing players...I'm against going for players that are so far off being Football ready they cannot contribute. Obviously I have my Likes and dislikes and Mcgee is not someone I'm sold on.

What exactly did you expect of him last night?

 

[ctalker]

Wow, not sold on McGee after his 1st preseason game. Brilliant.

Wow, not sold on McGee after his 1st preseason game. Brilliant.

yea I determined I dont like Him off One game. What are you twelve?. I watched Him in college and based on that and his style offense, he will take a veery long time to adjust to the pros. and even then I'm not sold on weather He can do it or not. Actually I'm not sold on him at all. it's that simple, not to complicated. One pre-season game good or bad isnt going to change my mind.

I thought he looked pretty good out there. Good movement in the pocket, nice arm and looks pretty quick out there etc. Definitely nice to have him in the #3 slot this yr.

 

[playmakers]

I agree with SliverStar, Mcgee is a nice prospect. He has wheels and he has decent arm strength, if he gets the cerbeal part down we might have something. Like I said, if anybody watched Tyler Thigpen play he is much like him. Thigpen can run and has happy feet to run when he doesn't have to but he does makes good throws here and there. The only problem is he still has the clunkers games in him.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

What I am reading:

He will take 4-5 years. Gee, I cannot wait!

He has potential. LOL

He has all the physical attributes. Yeah, so did Henson and Leaf.

He kept his head. So did the other 10 men on offense.

The last thing we need is an overhyped aggie whose took his team nowhere.

I can understand wanting him to succeed but if you think he will be big-time NFL, you might as well also say that about 10 other rookie mutts who were drafted this year.

God help us if Romo and Kitna go down.

Your reservations at the College Station Luby's are ready.:laugh2:

 

[masomenos]

Honestly, Stephen McGee probably isn't intelligent enough to pick up the pro. game, considering the fact that he was an Aggie.

That is funny Bennet came from the same worthless offense and Stephen McGee in Highschool was a pure passer. Guess what before he was injured last year he won the starting job under a more pro style offense under the new Head Coach Mike Sherman his season was derailed quickly with injury.

Please we will know before 4-5 years about year 3 he should have made enough strides and be the backup QB or traded for picks or flat out released if he has not progress far enough by year three

One thing Mcgee did not do at A&M when he did threw was throw a lot of int

What are the expectations for this kid in your eyes?

For Me He is about 4-5 years away from being NFl ready and even then maybe just a backup.

Romo's 29 right? Did I miss something and he aged 10yrs?

 

[AtomicDog]

I don't like drafting players before their rightfull spot. He needs a lot of seasoning. We probably drafted him a round too early. Expectations on him need to be managed. But we paid a bit of premium for him looks like.

I honeslty believe that some of his supporters have never seen Him play and are just basing this potential off physical hability.

Even in his highlights you can see that This style of play will take years to develope. EVEN Romo playing at his level showed the capacity to throw the ball. Romo was As raw as they came but He Provided all the tools a QB needs to be succesfull. much more then this guy. This happy Feet run first style Qb is not what dallas needs for the future.

Goose said he got picked right where he should have and couldve gone a little earlier.

Relax, he wont play this year. lets worry about him next year when he's supposed to replace kitna. this year he wont see the field. if he does the season is done to begin with. at least we dont have bj ahead of him on the depth chart.

Nah, I am 39 and realize that the aggie coaching staff didn't exactly help him develop or showcase his skills. M. Bennet looked like he didn't have any skills coming out of A&M and how's that turning out. Oh yeah, and how many college QB's were great to only fail in the NFL. So, yeah. I'd say you are jumping the gun a little on calling him a bust.

 

[Avery]

Guy's a rookie in his first game - if he would have gone 10 for 10 with three TD's, we would have seen 'Bench INT Machine Romo?!'

He's still a good 2-3 years away from being able to be a decent backup. But guess what? That's a lot of time for him to work on his fundamentals and improve his game. As good as a college program is, it pales in comparison to a NFL organization and coaching.

Longtime lurker here.

I will preface my comments that I am an A&M Season ticket hold for 10 years. So I likely will have some bias.

I agree that he has some of the physical tools in order to be an NFL QB.

I also think that he has the intangibles to be successful -- a) the kids obviously isnt afraid to take a hit, b) he seems to be very coachable going from a pass heavy offense in High School, to a Option based offense at A&M, c) aggie jokes aside, he seems to be intelligent / hard working given that he finished his undergrad degree (Business) and was working on a Masters degree his last year at A&M, & d) the competitive FIRE, you notice how when he was getting drilled by DL or LB he was popping back up talking smack.


While I agree that he didnt chunk the rock in college, i think that most (if not all) of this blame is at the feet of Coach Fran.


I personally think that McGee is in the perfect situation, Romo is definitely the starter. He can learn over the next 2 - 3 years developing under the radar. When you factor in Carson Palmers comment regarding Kitna, I think he may have a great mentor.

I agree 100%. Good post.

The info on his high school background is something I bet few know about.

 

[ctalker]

I like his mental makeup and seems mature for his age. He is a high character guy and comes across like he has some old school, hard workin Texan in him... Seems like he fell into the right situation. I hope to see him succeed, even with another team. Not an aggies fan, not that matters or should have anything to do with him, but I will be rooting for him.

 

[NorthTexan95]

I believe Kitna has a two year contract. McGee needs to be ready to replace him as the first backup in his third year. That gives him two years of clipboard holding and off season workouts to prepare. If he's not ready by year 3 then the Cowboys will sign another veteran to backup Romo.

It doesn't matter how bad or how good McGee looks in these preseaon games. We need to wait till next year to see if there's any potiential.
