Excellent article over at WGR by Matthew Coller.
On EJ Manuel - “His mindset right now is: I'm ready to come in here and run," Lee said. "My first conversation with him was, 'EJ, when I looked at you coming out, the Florida game, you beat them three times with your legs against a fast secondary.' I said to get those chains off and get running."
(M. Coller) - Lee did not want to divulge his thoughts on Manuel's mechanics...
On Matt Cassel - "I like watching him break the huddle and ID the Mike linebacker, re-direct protection, throw the ball outside the numbers," Lee said in his Southern accent. "He's a fighter, he's a competitor, all those things are the reasons you want to go get a guy."
On Tyrod Taylor - "He might be the fastest guy if you timed them all. "He's exciting to all of us because he has that I-can-beat-you-with-my-legs dimension. But I think he has a beautiful throwing motion, we just have to see how accurate he is. He is extremely smart. I wouldn't mention Wildcat with him because he's in this competition."
----------
So EJ Manuel needs to take off his training wheels and start running more, Matt Cassel is a backup, and Tyrod Taylor is the fastest guy that can beat a team with his legs and has an awesome throwing motion.
Sounds like the QB competition is over before it ever started.
