    When he was in Jeannette he played the worst defenses imaginable to get that number one spot. I remember sittin in the bleachers watchin this ? throw the ball in disbelief he was the number one QB. I could see a 5 star athlete, but a 5 star QB, hell naw!

    He has come a long way from his freshman year. His touch is really coming along. Arm is good enough for the league. He doesn't throw nearly as many ducks. The one problem I see is pocket presence. He doesn't feel the rush well enough for a guy with this kind of special mobility. Nearly limitless potential if he corrects a few mechanical issues he should be at least as good as VY..

    If Tebow will get a shot someone will give Pryor a shot.

    In order for him to be successful, he has to go to a creative offensive coordinator. He can do everything Vick does in Philly or the option plays they run in Tenn. He is not a wildcat QB. He is a quarterback. Would love to see him with Mike Shannahan..He'd be so special if he gets to learn behind McNabb for a year.

    In Philly, they basically run a Vanilla spread with everything is as a run option for Vick. Pryor can make any throw..

    It's not about making "All the throws' his overall QB skills are garbage...he works excellent For college yes, but he's not A QB, his Passing skills are still very questioned by NFL scouts.... he's a Athlete playing the QB position, he's not a Great QB Prospect ...

    The one that goes forward to a receiver for starters. But every now and then he gets lucky so more realistically, the one that hits a receiver between the numbers.

    That isn't true. He threw a perfect 20 yard fade behind the defender for a score in the Miami game. He hit Posey in the Ohio game for a deep strike toward the sideline between two defenders...He can throw the football.

    It's just about making the throws. What passing skills are you talking about? Be more specific. He can throw the 20 yard out/dig. He can throw the skinny post before the safety gets over. He can throw the deep seams. He has the passing talent to be more than just an athlete.

    Exactly a lot of guys can throw in high school and be good in college. ? Hinez Ward threw for 400 yds in the peach bowl, put him behind center in the NFL and he wouldn't make it.

    All the throws I listed are NFL caliber throws. He's not going to come in and be Matt Ryan, but he can be successful if he's in the right situation, which will probably happen as he isn't going top 10.
