Wisconsin did a good job of covering Wilson's flaws up. Was used primarily on play action roll outs and a lot of 7 step drops. He had all day to throw quite often. That's not going to fly in the NFL. |

i liked the interview but i honestly think stanzi will be a better pro than any qb that wont be picked with the first or second pick. i could be wrong but i'd rather have stanzi under center than any of these guys.

Just caught Wilsons qb camp and watched him on ESPN.
I'm starting to change my mind on the guy. He is short, really short. He's gonna have to work his ass off to become something though. |

I think the thing that I like about him is that you will know very soon whether he will be able to adjust. There wouldn't need to be a long evaluation period for him, because if he struggles with any aspect of being a pro quarterback he becomes your "wildcat" option. We burn second round picks for smaller, less valuable players. In a year that everyone is whooping about our FA signings and talking about the draft being icing on the cake, I don't know why someone wouldn't at least consider him in the fourth. |

Gruden on Wilson FWIW Russell Wilson, Wisconsin: "I think [size] is the issue with Russell Wilson. That might be the reason that he's not picked in the first couple rounds. The only issue with Russell Wilson is his height [he's 5-11]. He's got tremendous mobility. I've got him at 4.50 in the 40. He's mastered two different offensive systems. When do any of us remember a kid transferring from NC State to Wisconsin in July and breaking every Wisconsin Badger record? The Badgers could have won every game this year if not for a couple Hail Marys. "This is a tremendous kid. His intangibles are off the charts. He walks into Wisconsin, he's a team captain. We all know what a great athlete he is. He's a high draft choice in baseball. "The only issue is his height, and we use Drew Brees as the classic example. If you just look at one inch or an inch and a half, that's the height difference in Russell Wilson and Drew Brees. But he's got a lot of questions and answers. There are not a lot of quarterbacks under 6 feet that are playing in the NFL today or who have played the game, period. He's going to have to answer those questions. Hopefully the right guy gives him an opportunity and he takes advantage of it, because when you watch the tape, every film you watch at NC State or Wisconsin, the results are very similar. It's successful, solid, gameday competitive. It's exciting. I wish him the best. He's a special kid. I just hope he gets with the right [coaching staff]." |

No.
We could probably sign Troy Smith for less. Same player. |

I don't understand what people are worried about with the height issue. Batted down passes? Field vision? What's the problem? He didn't have those problems in college, and it's not like NFL linemen are significantly taller.
He has big hands too, so ball security isn't an issue. This guy is more like Drew Brees than Troy Smith or Seneca Wallace. |
