I saw this last night on the show that came on before John Grudens QB club. I thought it was pretty funny:

Yeah apparently Cam isn't much smarter .. Of course this is just a combine test that these guys really don't care about..

Of those 9 QB's you listed, Mallett has the 8th best completion %. I thought that was his calling card, his "amazing" arm. Doesn't matter if he can throw an 80 yard pass if it's in the dirt.
If there was a score for toughness, Locker would be at the top of the list

If McElroy completes 66% in the NFL it will have to be an offense of screens and shovel passes.
