Beck, Kolb Heading To Round One?

I know I'm in the minority here, but I really do think Kolb is the 3rd best Qb in the draft. It would not surprise me to see someone like the Ravens get him. If we are lucky enough to grab him in the 2nd round (if Quinn is gone), I will be very happy.

i agree with you! I have liked kolb for a while.
 
no way Beck goes that high, his age will prevent that from happening
 
that would be fine with me this would allow some of the boarderline recievers such as: Dwyan Jarrett, Rice, Mecheam....At least one of those guys will fall and Ryan Kalil...The more of these crappy QB's going high= better talent for the fins come their two second round picks

they aren't crappy, Kolb and Beck are pretty good prospects. if this is true though we better land Quinn at #9, we will have the option of taking one of those WRs in round 2 but if we didn't take Quinn we may have to go after Stanton or Kolb
 
my only problem with Kolb is many scouts list his numbers as being severly inflated due to the system he was in. also, he doesn't have enough arm strength to throw the deep outs or flys. If he gets in the right system, he could flourish, or he could really flop. question is, do we want to take a chance? after russell and quinn, all of these prospects have some kind of clearly evident knock against them, according to the scouts.

well I don't know but it seems like a west coast offense is the right fit for him but I like him as a prospect

Kolb doesn't have a strong arm...O'Brother.


Has good size with adequate muscle definition, losing more than 10 pounds of "baby fat" in the last year to improve his agility rolling out of the pocket…Mobile passer with the nimble feet to make all of his throws when rolling out of the pocket… Short strider who has the change of direction agility to sidestep the initial tackler, doing an effective job of throwing from either of the outside hashes…Loves the challenge in pressure situations and remains cool in the backfield, despite numerous protection breakdowns (was sacked 33 times in 2006, but fumbled only once), as he is also very conscious of protecting the ball to prevent the costly fumble…Makes good on-field adjustments and check on the pre-snap and is alert to zone coverages…Worked hard with the team's new strength coach before the 2006 season and the trimmed frame and added strength allowed him to stand tall in the pocket…Puts nice touch and velocity on his short-to-intermediate throws…Displays good arm strength and accuracy on sideline, screens, slants and crossing routes…Has enough foot speed and balance to be a threat running with the ball and shows good body control in his pass set-up…Can slide and avoid, doing a nice job of escaping pressure and creating when on the move…Does whatever he can to stay alive in the pocket, as he picks up defensive schemes quickly and has no problems taking plays from the chalkboard to the field…Best when making calls at the line of scrimmage, as he does a very good job of scanning the field…Can pull the ball down and make something out of a broken play with his feet and is accurate throwing on the move…Has adequate quickness dropping back from center to his pass-set point and is able to get good depth due to his fine balance and quick feet…. The thing you see on 2006 film is that he now does a much better job of setting his feet and stepping into his throws than in past seasons…The ball comes off Kolb's hand with average zip and good touch, as he knows how to step towards his target and maintain balance following through with his passes...When he uses a three-quarter release and steps into his throws, his release is much more compact and natural…Throws a tight spiral that receivers don't have to come back on when operating in tight spaces…Throws the long ball with adequate touch and accuracy, zips the posts and even when he passes off his back foot, he is still able to generate good velocity…Patient sitting in the pocket and scanning the field, locating his secondary targets with good efficiency…Shows better accuracy with underneath tosses than on long throws, but does an effective job of keeping the receiver in his route progression without having to break stride…Puts good air behind the short fade routes, knowing when to take something off those throws…Can zip the pass into tight coverage away from the defender, demonstrating good placement and has the awareness and ability to slide in the pocket and continue to scan down field…Knows where all of his targets are and will throw the ball away rather than force the issue when all are covered…Does a good job of squaring his shoulders and driving with his legs to break tackles when forced to run with the ball…Has the vision to pick his spots to run to and is quick to slide and avoid being punished when the defender closes on his rushing attempt…Self-starter who has been a great program player and unquestioned leader ever since first stepping into the huddle as a freshman…Vocal leader, but not the type who appears arrogant, like some quarterbacks tend to be.
