I am just curious. Because I am not fimilar with the college QB rating system... so I dont know how good a 105.3 really is. So if someone could give me the NFL equivelent, I would appreciate it...

If Quinn were coming out... I would be stoaked... but he isnt.

I think the 2nd round is a little high for him. However, I wouldnt mind if we used a pick on him... just preferably a 3rd or lower...

Does anyone know what a college QB rating of 105.3 translates to for an NFL QB rating?

You can't translate one to the other like you do inches to cm because the two formulas use different variables. But if you take his stats for his senior season and plug them into the NFL formula you get a rating of 100.6. BTW his college passer rating was 148.3 not 105.3 which would actually be awful for college. 148.3 on the other hand if pretty respectable. Nevertheless I don't think it means much though since he wasn't playing against NFL talent.

And for those who are wondering what the differences in the two formulas are check out this article:

And just for the record I'm not some geek who just spent hours calculating those ratings. I cheated and plugged his stats into this website. ;)

I got his passer rating and his Sportsline Player rating mixed up there. I stand corrected.......again.:shakeno:


So the concensus seems to be DJ is a cool pick for draft day #2. It will be interesting to see if any teams take a shot at him, or if the Maurice Clarrett gamble by the Broncos last season will scare all the NFL GMs into playing it straight this year.

thanks... ya I know they dont directly translate... but I was just looking for more of a ballpark kinda number... I appreciate it...
 
Miami interested in DJ Shockley?

See the report below from the Senior Bowl. What do you think?

Now for the sightings and observations. It was real refreshing to see Bill Belichick in attendance. Even though he is a Hall of Famer and at the pinnacle of his profession he is still working hard and doing the little things while some head coaches don't even bother to come to Mobile. There is a reason this guy wins so many Super Bowls. The Cleveland Browns paid a lot of attention to Marcus McNeill and had him cornered for a very long time, while also speaking with Ryan Cook, Roman Harper, Kelly Jennings, Kamerion Wimbley, Freddie Roach, and DeMario Minter. Carolina was active once again and I saw them talking to Darrell Hackney, Albert Toeina, Andre Hall, Cedric Griffin, and Greg Blue. Eric Winston was seen chatting with the Jets and Chargers, Gerris Wilkerson of Georgia Tech talked to Carolina and Philly and Tampa Bay spoke with Mark Anderson (at length) and Thomas Howard. Travis Williams was pretty popular, drawing attention from Baltimore, Cincinnati and the Giants, Marcedes Lewis spoke with San Diego, D.J. Shockley with Miami and the Jets mingled with Max Jean-Gilles and Jesse Mahelona. Kansas City spoke with Jon Scott and DeMario Minter for a bit while the Redskins were seen with Tim Jennings and the Chargers with Kamerion Wimbley and Max-Jean Gilles. The most popular player I have seen yet though is Manny Lawson, who had a huge group around him at all times that included the likes of Kansas City, Cleveland, Carolina, Baltimore and San Diego. Lawson also sounded like a great kid and was very polite and well spoken. As always don't take these observations as locks that these teams are going to take the players, but they can sometimes give indications as to which positions they might be focusing on. All in all this was probably the most active practice yet and was a lot of fun to watch and observe.http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/features/seniorbowl/reports/south124.html
 
i dont like him at all, i didnt like him when i watched him a few games this season. im more impressed with croyle and cutler
 
We talked to all the QB's with the exception of Michael Robinson. It's all part of the process. 49ers talked with Cutler. Do you think they're really gonna take Cutler after spending their #1 overall pick on Alex Smith last year?

There's nothing to garner from who the coaches talk to in the Senior Bowl because they're not going to give away any of their intentions come draft day.
 
I thought I read something about DJ and Miami a few days ago at the Senior Bowl. I trust Saban, so I'll be excited if he drafted DJ's grandma.

I hope not, he really doesn't have the goods to be an NFL qb.

How do you know lol?...I notice you have a Cutler pic in your sig he may not have the goods either...No1 really knows many great college players have been flops and many average ones have been stars...Thats y I wouldnt mind drafting him espically since we wont get some1 like Young or Leinart or prob Cutler or Croyle either
