It's funny to watch scout fights on twitter and it's a reminder to take everything with a grain of salt. Got one guy right now tweeting that Carr looks very sharp in these drills.....only to be followed up by another scout saying it's check downs with no defense! WTF do you expect? Lol. Great stuff.
Well and a lot of these guys are running from north to south and so they may see the good part of a player's day and not the bad part.
Matt Miller ?@nfldraftscout 4mCarr isn't just the best QB here. He's the best player here. Absolutely looks the part of franchise QB.Not buying it, but I thought I'd share.
I'm not scout and I don't know what to look for and I only got to see what the NFLN showed but that said, Jimmy G was the guy who stood out
Obviously Carr is showing something that is creating this buzz but he sucks because a lot of people here don't like him, we have our opinions but do not have a clue how he really is doing compared to guys who are paid to scout and go over talent.
Eric Galko ?@OptimumScouting 4mArizonaSt Will Sutton played at 295 as a JR, school wanted him to bulk up. Played at 325 this year. Down to 315 here. Goal is 300 by Combine

Don't really know much about Carr. Just read the thing that (I think) JDub posted from (I think) Roto about the kind of passes thrown by each guy and the results of those passes. Based on that lone report though, clearly there are reasons he's not mentioned with Bridgewater, Manziel or Bortles.
He's a check down king that has no more mobility than Glennon and has completely choked in both of his bowl games.

Sounds like a Buccaneer to me

Does he have any negatives?
First of all when you say no more mobility than Glennon your completely wrong, he his way more athletic than Glennon and has the ability to roll out to his left and throw which Glennon can't do at all. He's a check down king because that is what his offense was made up to do, why do you think the question at the Senior Bowl is to see if he can make the other throws and so far he has, comparing him to Glennon is an absolute joke.
I gotta say, looks really impressive in that game
Personally I think he'll be garbage in the NFL. If I'm wrong, pull this up in two years and point out what an idiot I am....but I think he is a garbage QB that had his numbers inflated by a spread system and lots of screens. I am not a fan of Glennon, but I would most definitely rather roll with Glennon for another year than waste a draft pick on Carr.
?@caplannfl 5hFresno St.'s Derek Carr was the clear front runner out of the group of 6 QBs after the first day.
Aaron Colvin tore his ACL today. Really sucks for him. My third favorite CB in this draft and the consensus best CB at the senior bowl over the first two days. Could now be a steal late in the draft. He won't be playing in 2014, but you gotta think long term.
