It bothers me that he is athletic but he is completely immobile in the pocket . Nothing is more frustrating than a guy that COULD run but wont. Dude is as fast as Manziel but only had like 100 yards rushing his entire college career. I would pull my hair out watching this guy throw off his back foot every time pressure came near if he was our QB.
Not if Tedford is cool with it.
Reminds me of John Beck.If the Bucs draft him at 7, something is very, very wrong.

Good comparison.
It's funny some that bash him on here say things that are not true, he isn't more athletic or more mobile than Glennon? When he ran a faster 40 time than Manziel, and a pole taking at the combine 17 more coaches favor him over Manziel, now we have our opinions but it says something when 17 more coaches like Carr over Manziel, I think the kid can be special the hate for him is just a joke if you ask me, he's proven before he can play in an NFL offense before his new coach came into town, i'm all for Carr if we can get him.
This is just another example of unimaginative NFL coaching and thinking they know absolutely everything there is.Manziel breaks the mold so he's not going to be liked. Tebow is out of the league but Dan Orvlosky isn't. "Prototype NFL white pocket passers" will always be favored over the flash. Drafting Carr would be an epic mistake.
Beck has a noodle arm.Carr has one of the strongest arms of this draft class.
Every team in the league knows the connection Derek Carr has with the Bucs and Jeff Tedford..
what exactly is the connection?
Tedford is a Fresno State alum, coached his brother David, is a family friend, has known Derek since he was like 10 or something.
Bridewater or Bortles are ideal, but Carr is the 3rd best QB in this class, IMO.
Derek Carr...aka Blaine Gabbert 2.0...sign me the f**k up!!!

plus I believe he has privately coached him as well.

Size, weight, production in college (only having throw million short passes) is my basis of comparison.Does not do well with good defenses.

derek carr was in preschool when tedford coached David. But I haven't heard anything concrete about these private sessions. Would like to hear something definitive rather than speculation if possible.

Actually, at the moment, both Derek and David Carr are being coached by the Bucs' recently fired OC, Mike Sullivan. That sure oughta help them land on NFL teams. ;) http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/02/28/david-and-derek-carr-working-out-with-mike-sullivan/

it was mentioned in an article I read. Probably a PR piece.
