Sell me on Mike Glennon

[SNR]

Right now I don't see anything about the guy that I like.

I haven't watched any more than about 2 minutes of live game footage. I've seen a bunch of highlights of his throws on youtube.

I want to like the guy. I want him to be good so people will stop bitching about how supposedly terrible this year's QB class is, but every time I watch something of his, I get turned off. He's 2nd round material at best to me that will (possibly) get taken in the top 10? Some people even have him as the top QB off the board?

That's pure insanity to me.

Tell me/show me stuff about Mike Glennon that will change my mind. I promise to withhold all preconceived notions about the guy in this thread for the purposes of trying to like him.

Based on the stuff I have watched so far, no. He's NOT better than Geno Smith, and he won't ever be. But I'm tired of shitting on him when everybody is talking him up as potentially a good pro QB.

Glennon is going to be a first round pick. If Ryan Tannehill, Christian Ponder and Jake Locker can be first round picks, so can Mike Glennon.

So basically that means ***** would try to trade down. If not he would take Glennon at 1 and all of CP will explode in a rage never seen before.

Glennon isn't even close to the prospect Tannehill was.

Glennon will be a first round pick because QB's are the premium. Blaine Gabbert was taken almost purely based off of his physical tools. Because everything else about him was a negative. Glennon is an inch taller than Gabbert, and has worked under center a lot. I wouldn't even be surprised if he's a top 10 pick. I predict he goes in the 12-18 pick range, but he can raise his stock. It's not hard to do when you're a QB.

^^^This. And I loathed Tannehill.

Well, Jags, Oakland, Bills, Jets, Cards, Browns, Philly, SD, and Minny could all potentially draft a 1st round QB. I think Glennon goes in the first.

Honestly, I can really see the Bills taking Glennon. Can't really explain it, but some players you just have a gut feeling that they would be on said team.

Like Brandon Flowers in 2008 and Mark Clayton when he was drafted by the Ravens.

Interesting. I wonder if arm strength is something they'd overvalue due to their playing conditions. Won't matter with global warming though.

Bray will go ahead of Barkley, IMO.

He'll fit right into the process.

Jesus Christ.

No wonder ***** has a hard-on for him.

The server crashes and Arrowhead is nuked from orbit.

I wouldn't normally reveal rep comments but this one deserves mention.

DomCasual posted that montage of pics of Glennon and I had to rep him.

He replied to my rep with a rep message and this picture:

***** WOULD try to trade down.

IF HE HAD AN NFL TEAM

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I see his upside as Joe Flacco lite. Not only b/c they're both tall, lanky and awkward with big noses. Mostly b/c of their game.

Comparing him to college Flacco, they both seem to use their height well, and pick apart the defense with short and intermediate routes. Both capable of throwing the deep ball, but hesitant to. He could be Flacco, but won't have Baltimore's defense to lean on, so he won't have near the immediate success.

Even if he becomes Flacco, he certainly wouldn't be worth the #1 overall.

Second pick maybe? He could be our Kirk Cousins for Geno III
