4th Landry Jones QB 12 4Jr Tough, intelligent signal caller that does a great job commanding and controlling the offense. Always on the same page as his receivers, displays great timing and competitive. Lacks great physical skills and a pocket passer that does not possess classic size or arm strength.

Originally posted by DraftBoyIt's a little low, but I cant say he's totally wrong. Im not fully buying into Landry Jones either. Its the Oklahoma effect and Pauline is calling people out for it.

Re: SI.com Tony Pauline Weighs In On Landry Jones
Andy Dalton got picked at the top of rd. 2, that should be all you need to know about qb's getting drafted early.
I know of another qb who supposedly had a 3rd rd grade and was the 8th pick in the draft.
And another with a 2nd rd grade who was the 12th pick.
Then another who has more physical ability then any of them who went in the 4th and may very well end up being the best of them.
All this means that these draft guys have no freaking clue and the one constant is qb's generally will go much higher then where rated.

In the end where a guy gets picked matters a grand total of zero. Can he play or can he not play. That's all that matters. The valuation system in terms of rounds tells you that Pauline is not sure he can play.
If Locker is a success then Tennesse was right and I was wrong, if Tennessee had taken Locker in Round 3 and he was a success I was still wrong.
I, like Pauline and many others, really don't care about being right in April. The only thing that matters is the long term. April accuracy is for fans not analysts or scouts. Its why guys like Kiper and McShay have to be accurate in round projections.
Its a blurry line at times, but its one that exists. You read the round and that's all you're seeing when the round itself actually means next to nothing.COMING SOON...

Re: SI.com Tony Pauline Weighs In On Landry Jones
I'm making alot of sense.
- qb's will usually get drafted highr, because they play the most important position.
- most talent scouts are clueless regarding how qb's will adapt at the pro level from college.
I'd say that is very accurate and I will also say right now that L. Jones will get drafted before the 4th rd.

Re: SI.com Tony Pauline Weighs In On Landry Jones
Who is Pauline and if he is a scout he damn well better care about being right. That is his job.
Thus the reason the Bills have stunk for a decade, their scouts and front office were always wrong.

Re: SI.com Tony Pauline Weighs In On Landry Jones
Originally posted by psubills62The problem with your logic is that you're assuming since these guys are picked somewhere, that they're worth that pick. Was Jamarcus Russell worth a first rounder (much less first overall)? Brady Quinn? Brian Brohm worth a 2nd? Chad Henne?
I'm not saying the "draft guys" know what they're talking about necessarily, but they are predicting what they think some of these prospects are worth, not where they'll be drafted.
And why should I even think that Pauline knows what he is talking about saying Jones is worth a "4th" ? Who the f is Pauline ?

You're the one who seems to use their draft status as a first rounder to legitimize your claims. I'm showing you that that's a dumb way of doing things.
You also tend to confuse when scouts say a player is "worth" a certain round pick with them saying that's where he'll go. Everyone knows Jones will go first round barring a disaster season. Pauline's saying he's not worth using a first rounder on him, kind of like it wasn't worth using a first rounder on Quinn or Russell.
You're a smart guy, you should be able to get these concepts."Misguided political correctness tethers our intellects."
