Camp arm but he has size and a decent arm. Little careless with the ball, stares down receivers, terrible under pressure. He has good physical traits.

Cooper Rush is a genius mentally. He's going to be like Kellen Moore in the fact that they're film junkies and coaches will love him. Noodle arm though.

I do like the fact that Kellen and Cooper are going to be studying with Dak.

Brad Kaaya of Miami.
Question: some reports say we weren't going to take him until the 7th round maybe cause that was all we wanted to spend - either that or we wanted Marquez White better ..
Other report(s) say the Lions just took him off the board right before we would have taken him.
Wonder which is true?

I'm starting to think by the kids we've brought in (Moore/Rush), that we like having a "Crash Davis" type on the roster....a player coach to help along the ones with actual physical ability.

Why? Do you think Dak is dumb?

Draft was viewed to be thin on quarterbacks.

So if a guy didn't get drafted in a weak class...he's probably not very good.
