flgreen Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Jets show interest in NC State QB January, 25, 2013 Jan 25 10:23 AM ET By Rich Cimini | ESPNNewYork.comOn Thursday, John Idzik and Rex Ryan gave every indication that embattled QB Mark Sanchez will be back with the Jets in 2013. But make no mistake, the quarterback depth chart will have a different look. In addition to acquiring a starting-caliber veteran, the Jets are looking to the draft for their quarterback of the future. Remember this name: Mike Glennon of North Carolina State. The Jets met with Glennon Tuesday at the Senior Bowl week, according to a mole in Mobile, Ala. In fact, they spent an inordinate amount of time with Glennon, a 6-foot-6 passer who has drawn comparisons to Joe Flacco because of his size. This isn't a great quarterback draft (no Lucks or RG IIIs), but Idzik comes from the Seahawks, who struck gold in the third round with Russell Wilson. Glennon is projected as a second-round pick, although that could fluctuate greatly in the coming weeks, depending on how he performs during the pre-draft process. The Jets' QB depth chart could be Sanchez, plus a veteran, plus a rookie, leaving Tim Tebow and Greg McElroy out in the cold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernJet Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 ya I wrote that months ago. Jets scouts were looking at glennon 3 separate times this year. They also scouted Gio Bernard three times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think of Glennon? You're generally the go-to guy when discussing Carolina prospects... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitonti Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Glennon is a statue back there. He's got no elusiveness and he also throws dumb picks all the time. He's like a worse Drew Bledsoe. This QB class sucks from top to bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This QB class sucks from top to bottom. I hope that's the mentality and one of the more interesting ones falls to the third. Bray, Dysert, Sorenson....any of the three would be welcome.

If he is I would gladly risk a 3rd on him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonehands Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I don't like super tall QB's. They have footwork issues and accuracy issues because they have more going on with their throwing motions. It is kind of like in baseball with pitchers. Usually the real tall guys have a tougher time developing consistent location. Add to that the fact that Glennon is blade thin and his college numbers reflect his accuracy issues and I don't see him as worthy of a top pick. Every QB in this class has fairly major blemishes. The best guy is probably Geno Smith because of his accuracy and athleticism which should allow him to become a good QB, but he has happy feet in the pocket and locks onto receivers. If someone is able to mine a gem from this class, god bless them. I really liked Tyler Wilson, but then I find out he has little bitty hands which does not translate well to bad weather throwing and ball handling. Who knows...

#27TheDominator Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 They cannot f*ck up this pick. The next quarterback drafted defines the Idzik regime and will shape the next five years of Jets football. This is the mentality that scares me. They can pick any sh*thead they want, but I don't want to invest so much that we are stuck with the numbnuts shaping the next five years. Think about it, Kellen Clemens didn't shape sh*t. Whoever we pick will probably be in that mold based on the sh*tty QB class this year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is I would gladly risk a 3rd on him I do have to say that by third I meant 4th. I'm not too excited to draft any one of them, though I think those three have the potential to be the best QB taken in this draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glennon beat FSU on the final drive and yet still played one of the most horrific games at QB. Clemson....Vanderbilt. He makes a beautiful throw one out of ever 3 passes. The other 2 aren't even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unbanmadmike1 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Tyler Wilson is better than Glennon and Teddy Bridgewater will be head and shoulders better than both of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 The QB I like the most in this draft. He made some headway this week with the Senior Bowl QB's bringing the meh. He is my favorite now that Dysert/Wilson failed to bring the size. He's by far the most prototypical QB in this class IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This QB class sucks from top to bottom. Compared to all those smart picks all the other QBs are throwing Kidding aside, Glennon has practically the same exact, if not slightly better, collegiate production as Matt Ryan. Ideal size, arm strength and has shown the ability to make some very weak offensive players better. A lot of the criticisms you're throwing on Glennon were said about ryan coming out, but he was able to cut down on his mistakes and there's no reason to think Glennon can't, considering he's improved every year at NC state.

Rjpickett21 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Tyler Wilson is better than Glennon and Teddy Bridgewater will be head and shoulders better than both of them. agreed 100%. I think when its all said and done Wilson will be the best of the 2nd round QBs...has all the intangibles great arm elusive extends plays...people have to ignore numbers from this past season because he had a depleted receiving core, and lost a lot of talent due to issues at Arkansas with Petrino. This kid will be a good one and theyre not talking about him much. Glennon has time and time again showed he struggles throwing the ball in the 15-20 yard range right down the middle of the field. An area that is exploited often in the WCO. Saw in Sr Bowl practice and Bowl game he often overthrows and gets intercepted. Jets need a guy who can read a defense quickly and make a decision to get through his reads and get rid of the ball. Wilson could be that guy in 2nd-3rd round.

Matt Ryan cut down on mistakes? He threw 14 INTs this year tying his career high back in 2009. Wouldn't call that cutting down mistakes and the fact he can't win a big playoff game. Id take Ryan over Sanchez any day but he hasn't limited his mistakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SenorGato Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I forgot about Manuel and Jones...They iight.

Wouldn't call that cutting down mistakes and the fact he can't win a big playoff game. Id take Ryan over Sanchez any day but he hasn't limited his mistakes You wouldn't, mainly because you overlooked a large piece of data. Ryan threw 164 more passes this year, while averaging 1.2 more yards per attempt, which means he threw an INT every 44 attempts compared to every 32 attempts his sophomore year. So not only is he throwing the ball an additional 10+ times per game, but he's throwing the ball more down field. That's only part of it, the offense was clearly put in Ryan's hands this year and he responded with his best season to date. We have that type of performance with this defense and we're in the playoffs every single year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of accuracy is somewhat due to the height in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
