Just something I thought I'd share...

ADAM JOSHUA "A.J." FEELEY
By: Dave-Te' Thomas

#7-ADAM JOSHUA "A.J." FEELEY University of Oregon Ducks 6:03.1-217

ANALYSIS
Positives... Well-proportioned athlete who knows how to manage an offense... Has a very quick set-up, moving away from the center fluidly...Displays a high release point and even though he's more comfortable in the pocket, he shows good improvisation skills on the move...Touch passer with a good understanding of defensive coverage...has good poise in the pocket, rarely forcing his throws...Shows solid timing and consistency on slants and fades, feathering the ball past the defenders so his receivers do not have to work to make the catch...Can vary the speed on his passes and will step up and make the completion when his pocket collapses...Scans the field quickly to spot his open target and has the body control to make defenders miss when on the move.

Negatives... Does not have the arm strength or consistency to throw deep (note-player has just now fully recovered from a right elbow injury suffered in 1999 that affected his velocity)...His loss of velocity causes his balls to flutter and die when throwing from the opposite hash mark...Does not seem to throw across the body effectively, tending to go to a side-arm release on his deep throws...While he stands tall in the pocket, he does not have the lateral agility to escape when flushed out of the pocket or the quickness to gain much yardage past the line of scrimmage.

Thanks.........again.

Nice photos though Boone!!
 
many scouts feel that he will be a major steal on draft day for a team that utilizes a "West Coast" offense
makes you really wonder if Trestman is gonna work w/Collier to convert to more of a WCO. If so, we s/keep Minor since he w/b even better catching of the backfield when RW is resting
