Has anyone actaully seen Skelton play?? I mean if anyone is watching Fordum play then more power to them. lol. But I'm cool with drafting a guy like this as long as it's in the mid to later rounds.

Why should we draft or not draft Skelton? What's he like as a player?

1.) He's got size comparable to Flacco, but with more muscle.
2.) He moves around in the pocket a lot(and I mean a lot)
3.) He has a quick release.
4.) His deep ball is very accurate but it doesn't seem like he gets a the hangtime of a Flacco or Big Ben.
5.) He's not scared to tuck and run, although he will take a hit(Big Ben) instead of just sliding.
6.) I like his footwork and the fact that he keeps his eyes down field( he doesn't have that look where he's waiting for the sack like Campbell does) But i'm sure that has to do with Skelton trusting his OL.
He reminds me of Drew Bledsoe, but faster and stronger

Sounds good. I'm sure he'll blow everyone away at the combine and we'll see him get drafted in the 1st two rounds. Seems like a very risky pick if he goes that high. I say we stick w/ JC, bring back Collins, Colt and draft a guy in the later rounds.

Thank you very much for the run-down on Skelton. It is hard to see anything of Fordham in the deep south. I'll keep my eyes open about him.
Whether or not we keep JC, I'm in favor of adding a young qb prospect.

All the talk about getting rid of Campbell overshadowed the fact that this team needs to get stronger at the QB position independent of Jason Campbell. We have to spend a draft pick at quarterback next year, but I'm not sure I'd go there before the 4th or 5th.
