Patriot Killa Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Who the **** is Tom Savage? As in.. give me some film. I seriously,seriously, seriously doubt it already though. Bro you just named dropped Brett Farve. He better have some damn good potential or this thread is kinda... 'ehh'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTL Jet Fan Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 It's actually something to think about as it looks like Mallet will be the Texans starter. I don't know much about Savage but IF Big Mac scouted him and liked him it could be a possibility that we try to trade a late round pick. Savage was drafted in the 4th round he is 6'5" I don't want to waste any picks but if Mac thinks he is better than any of the late round prospects and we don't take a QB in the first 3-4 rounds then why not. STRENGTHS Terrific size. Sets with balance. Easy, compact, high three-quarters release. Spins a catchable ball. Excellent arm strength to complete NFL throws -- capable of sticking outs from the deep hash or launching balls 60 yards on the money. Experience in pro-style offense. Smart and hardworking. Solid personal and football character. Has tools to work with. Team captain. WEAKNESSES Needs to speed up his clock and show better awareness in the pocket. Needs to quicken his eyes, expand his field vision and learn to manipulate safeties. Tends to stare down his target. Forces some throws into traffic. Erratic accuracy. Slow of foot -- not a scramble threat. Can improve play-action fake. Had some duds -- struggled against Florida State, Virginia and Virginia Tech. Mental toughness needs to be looked into.

Ex-Rex Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Some of the same highlights repeated several times. Poor choice of tape on the guy. He is rated as a fourth round prospect by most scouts. He has some good qualities but Bryce Petty is the guy I want in the second round to unseat Geno.

faba Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Draft Analysis: "I think this is a great fit for the Texans. He's got a hose. His arm is any bit as good as Logan Thomas' or Zach Mettenberger's. He took a beating at Pitt, but he continued to stand in the pocket. He's a natural thrower of the football. He's got all the mechanics, so now it's all about developing the kid's ability." -- Mike Mayock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 He transferred out of Rutgers found a home at Pittsburgh- most Rutgers fans I know hated him I don't think anyone knows what the hell really happened between him and Schiano. What we do know is that he was treated like a godsend and then Schiano decides to start running the wildcat out of nowhere, putting them in 3rd and long all the time and then he blamed it on Savage for not getting them out of it every time. Then Savage injures his hand and Schiano refused to let him try to win the job back when he recovered, then Savage starts thinking about leaving so Schiano sabotages that effort and blocks him from speaking to Florida schools...etc. Just a bunch of bizarre sh*t over the course of a year. It's a shame, because he was the highest rated QB prospect in the history of the school and he looked like he got his act together when he got to Pitt with all the nonsense behind him. I sure as hell would have taken him over Nova that last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Diddy Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Brett Hundley QB UCLA in the 2nd round. This kid is Randell Cunningham reincarnated. Have Hundley Foles and Geno battle it out. Grab a stud LT at pick 20 from the eagles, play him at RT and slide Giacomini inside to RG.

Considering how things have played out since and Savage seems like a reasonable guy, I think it's safe to conclude most of it falls on Schiano.

RutgersJetFan Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Why the past tense? It's true. The general thinking was that he was a quitter and a primadonna that didn't want to have to earn his job. You have to understand that 99% of RU fans worshiped everything Schiano did until he left and all the details came out about some of the sh*t about his tenure, then watching him go to Tampa and go full megalomaniac. All of a sudden some of the rumors that a lot of people were denying for a long time seemed a lot more realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember reading about him being at Pitt and thinking "Didn't he used to play at RU?" Otherwise I would probably hate the ****er too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
