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.

@AdamSchefter - I am not sure who will be making pick for KC, but today I finished charting M. Glennon & I think he will be the pick.

Puke. Face palm.

One of my friends who covers the Jags said a Jags scout told him that Glennon would be the first QB off the board. Compared him to Matt Ryan.

Here's to Vanderbilt destroying the goofy ostrich tommorrow.

Glennon isn't as bad as some people on here want to think. He's my #2 guy. I wouldn't be excited to get him, but it would still be a good QB, so I couldn't complain too much unless Geno blew up somewhere else.

Glennon is extremely like Matt Ryan in several ways. Would love him here.

He'll take time to develop though. But so will every QB in this class.

[Buzz_TinBalls]

question on Glennon is mobility within the pocket. He's tall/lanky and so ... ya he's a lumbering type. got to learn better footwork quickly to rock the NFL. Can he do that? **** if I know. probably. but how quickly? that would be a question for his trainer.

I have seen him at #1 on a QB board because of his decision making, mostly. I'd take him over Matt Barkley. Goofy SOB he is.

Just a heads up, Glennon is about to play in his bowl game on ESPN. Chance to see our #1 pick in action!

Everyone prepare themselves for some great play against good competition.

The Jags also thought Blaine Gabbert was worthy of a top 10 pick...

Not sure I place much stock in the way that group evaluates QBs (though, in fairness, I realize the scout possibly wasn't part of the group that drafted Gabbert).

[Gravedigger]

I think Glennon is Gabbert 2.0. His measurables are getting him more and more hype leading up to draft day, but seeing his competition over the years I'm not entirely impressed. Most of his throws in his highlight reels seem to be when the defender loses a step and you can't bank on that in the NFL. I think Glennon is #3 behind Geno Smith and Tyler Wilson.

[CaliforniaChief]

I think I remember seeing Mike Glennon in Florida once. I was staying at the Animal Kingdom resort and he stuck his head in my window. Good Lord.

Good First drive so far

[Canofbier]

That may have been the worst snap I've ever seen in my life. How you get it so far over a 6'6" QB's head is beyond me.
