Yeah, you guys lost a great College QB. I think Blaine Gabbert has big time potential in the NFL.
The funny thing is my Vikings had the 12th pick and the Jaguars had the 10th pick. At the Vikes draft party, a "Gabbert" chant broke out when the 8th pick was finished. We all assumed the Vikes would trade up.
*DIDN'T HAPPEN*
About 100 people got up and walked out. There were some angry boos. Instead we had to reach and take Christian Ponder. Sure, he might work out but it was an opportunity lost.
EDIT: It's too bad Gabbert didn't take you guys to a big time bowl game in his career there.
Yeah, I think he will be a really good pro QB in the future. They just need to bring him along slow.
I'm shocked that someone didn't especially a team like the Vikes who needed a QB. Ponder should be solid though but I think Gabbert will be better.
Yeah, the D just seems to wear out by the end of the year plus I don't are for the scheme they use. That INT he had against Iowa last year wasn't a bad toss. I saw what he was wanting to do he just missed that DB.
