Exactly.
I didn't say I was an expert - I may think I am, but I didn't say I was.
98% of the guys who cover the NFL on a regular basis aren't experts.
I'd love to see a poll like this from guys who play the game, who are coaches, general managers.
And just because you watch NFL Sunday Ticket replays all night doesn't mean you're an expert either ... you just have nothing better to do.
If Detroit is playing Cleveland, I admit it - I'm not glued to the set.My Twitch video link: http://www.twitch.tv/dave374000

Thats what Im saying. If you are gonna be overly critical at least get the most basic of info on the player down. Slow release? Cant move? The fuck are you watching? Damn sure isnt Freeman.

If you could have Stafford, Garcia or Freeman right now ... which one would you take for your team?My Twitch video link: http://www.twitch.tv/dave374000

Freeman has all the intangibles and showed promise last season. Dont try and flip the shit on me. You dont know what the fuck you are talking about, period. You dont watch TB and you are making shit up. The hell did you come up with him not being able to move and him having a slow release? You pulling shit out your ass.
Just admit that you dont know shit about Freeman. Watch a few games this season and make a fair and accurate assessment then. Me saying he, at the very least, is on par with Stafford and Sanchez isnt a homer statement, its the truth. All 3 QBs had times where they were money and times where they looked like shit. If you ask me Sanchez is the worst of the 3.

You can cut Garcia out the equation. To old and a shrimp.

It is certainly funny that we expected dave to have some "NFL credibility". lol. The list is iffy, the back-up opinions in the thread are garbage. And it's no secret that Freeman's not immobile. Did you even see him at KSU? He had 404 rushing yards and fourteen touchdowns his senior season. The two years prior he had negative yardage resulting mainly from sacks and lack of scrambling/designed QB runs.
Sanchez pleasantly surprised me. I thought he was gonna be garbage, even though I really loved him at SC. He's still not some amazing QB, but it remains to be seen what he'll do. He had one average year... Above-average for a rookie, with a pretty good AFCCG. He's not heads and shoulders above Stafford, Freeman, or even Bradford, from what I've seen. All the young guys have shown sparks of greatness; surprisingly enough, none of them have looked like surefire busts, yet.
It's just kind of crazy how this list is assembled. The top ten is hard to do because of how close some of those guys are. After that, the next five/six guys are the tier right outside of the top ten. The last sixteen are the bottom half of the starting NFL QBs, just assembled in random order with no real factual basis for why any of them are anywhere.Comment

Well, again, I don't think Dave was making this as an NFL Scouting primer or anything...Just his opinion, equally uninformed as any other.
I don't really think it's productive to even have these discussions, because people infuse their own skepticism into what should be fairly straight forward.

I'm not saying you can't scrutinize the list, but when you attack his credibility you're only stating the obvious. He's not saying he is the authority on the NFL, we all know he's not. He just wanted to offer thoughts and opinions on all 32 QBs.
I don't see why it's so hard to judge the list for what it is, knowing it's done by an uninformed fan.Comment

For crying out loud, look at the thread title!
