I am completely impressed with Christian Ponder and Andrew Luck. We need to get one of those two in addition to a cheap veteran addition. keep Skelton and Hall and make a great competition. Let the best guy win the position.
Two of the better QB prospects in a while (Ponder and Luck).
I'd say go with Clayborn and than pick Ponder in round 2. Or go with Luck round 1 and pick Cameron Jordan round 2.
These are the players i'm completely impressed with after watching college tapes so far with much more to go, i plan to watch some tape on most prospects (and in that order):
1) Cameron Jordan DT/DE
As polished as Alualu was last year. IQ, very hard to block one on one, shows agilty and explosiveness to also be a factor as passrusher, good in denying jump throughs, fantastic technique.
2) Christian Ponder QB
Best ability to progress through targets and manipulate zones with his head, accurate, smart,has good enough arm to play at next level. Mobile. Physically ready as well. Impressive touch. Makes the occasional mistake, so he is not completely consistent. Awsome dropback from under center and great hitch step to step up into the pocket. Works well under pressure.
3) Andrew Luck QB
Smartest QB this year and very polished player that makes almost no mistakes. Physically ready and very mobile. Great under pressure. Very accurate, sometimes can make inaccurate throws as well, but mostly consistent.
4) Adrian Clayborn DT/DE
Similar skills as Jordan, but not nearly as explosive and with that agility. But technically he is a NFL lineman right now.
5) Brandon Harris, CB
Man to man corner, good ballskills, is shutting down that side completely.
6) Austin Pettis, WR
Very polished and tough reciever that knows how to get YACs, great hands.
7) Quinn, DE
Awsome passrusher
8) Jimmy Smith, CB
Man to man corner, can press and has great ballskills and adjustment
9) Kerrigan, DE
Very polished end. Uses his hands text book style. Has no agility at all and no explosiveness, but everything else is perfect and what you ask for. Will make a good end or OLB in NFL i believe. Smart polished player that doesn't take plays off. Good motor.
