Comments on: Supplemental draft order is determined, as always, by a weighted lottery

Its funny that youre comparing him to Cam Newton as an NFL player already because Cam Newton hasnt even played a real full game in the NFL. The truth is just like every NFL prospect especially those of such raw talent it will depend on the team he ends up with and how the team grooms him into their system. If this guy gets picked up by one of the crap teams of the league and they thrust him into the starting role early he will fail. If he gets taken by one of the upper tier teams and they let him sit a while and groom him up I think he has a chance to at least be an adequate NFL player.

Eagles? Mentored by Vick and competing with Vince Young could be quite helpful.

As a Bengals fan (yes I know) why not take him in the 6th or 7th round, hell, I’d even go with a 5th. TP will be a better backup QB than Jordan Palmer, Bruce Gradkowski and Dan LaFevor (I don’t care about spelling their names correctly). Seriously, the guy is 6’6″, 235 and runs a 4.3. You all watched him stiff arm Oregon and Arkansas in back to back BSC Bowl games. Why not take a flyer?

This website’s comment board really raises the bar when it comes to comparisons that are just plain silly. It’s not hard to list star college QBs that didn’t pan out in the NFL, as there’s a lot of them. But they were not all created equally. Pryor played in a pro-style offense in his three years at Ohio State, and has athletic tools that are very similar to Cam Newton. The guy has serious maturity issues and is a project in every sense of the word, but his upside is higher than many that were taken in the first two rounds of this year’s real draft. If you think some team won’t use a 4th round pick on him for that upside, regardless of how remote the chances are that he will be an elite NFL QB, you are crazy.

Who cares about this kid. The real star of the Supplemental draft is Caleb King from Georgia. Someone will grab him.

A quick question here, will Pryor count against the roster for those 5 suspension games?

Yo Hobart the Bogart…stop smoking that wacky weed. Did he really just say “the most highly regarded recruit in the history of NCAA football”??! Anyone else think Pryor’s agent typed that?

Yeah, I mean what’s the big deal about the most highly regarded recruit in the history of NCAA football who only won 31 of 35 games and two Bowls in three seasons.

Never in my life have I been remotely close to Rolling On the Floor Laughing. But if my Panthers pick up Terrelle Pryor, I will.

Hobartbaker –

See:
Tommy Frazier
Danny Wuerffel
Ken Dorsey
Graham Harrell
Charlie Ward
Eric Crouch
and so on and so on and so on…

We’ve had countless “great” college quarterbacks that sucked in the NFL. You’ll be able to add Pryor to that list in 2 years.

Yeah. Especially one who doesn’t know the difference between right and wrong, and is too stupid to function at the NFL level?

Amazing what Ohio State can do for a guy.

All this attention and news about the supplemental draft is sole about Pryor.

Soley about a guy who will be out of the league in one year.
