    weird draft by the Jets, two safeties, then two WRs and now a TE. Must have been really depleted at those two spots

    What's weird is Peyton never beat Florida but did beat Alabama but around here people worship him daily still. Tee Martin comes in and wins the National Championship the next year and goes undefeated and there are probably tons of kids around here that have never heard his name. UT fans are weird dude. Trust me. LOL!

    Yeah those examples means exactly nothing.

    Smart meaning he'll be able to grasp the game at pro level.

    Skills, can make the throws and is mobile.

    But you're catching grief so its a bad pick :facepalm:

    I have Sunday Ticket so I don't have to worry about it. LOL! Dobbs will probably have a career like this: "Yeah he's good BUT have you heard of Peyton Manning????" LOL!

    Brady's game is at least 80% above the neck. I'm not saying Dobbs will be anything close to Brady, and I haven't really watched a ton of his tape yet. However when I did watch Dobbs, my reaction was never "he sucks," but rather "damn, his receivers and pass protectors don't do this kid any favors."

    I'm withholding judgment for now.

    They were hyped up as being able to win the SEC east, they did have a lot of talent but Butch Jones isn't a good coach.

    Ryan Fitzpatrick has "brains" right? Tebow has "character" right? That's what they're saying about Dobbs. Actually the Tebow comparison is unfair because he actually had a really dominant college career. Dobbs? Well....

    You know, Caleb Brantley is still sitting out there. #24 on NFL.com. Okay, so he smacked someone around. We've done the "good citizen" route for five picks. Lets draft a shi*t for a change.

    Sarcasm font disabled. My fiancee knows me too well.

    Maybe next we'll talk about Dobbs ability vs lazy comparisons

    If we're going with comparisons, then Dak prescott is the best one.

    I agree. Not sure if people have actually seen Dobbs work ethic or him actually play or what. I'm leaning more to the ones griping are the people that complain when their college team gets a 3* instead of a 5*.

    Josh Dobbs is going to surprise everybody. The kid can play. We had 0 QB coaches at Tennessee his four years. And being around all the help he's going to get from Ben and the coaches he is going to do fine.
