    Damn AR didn't have to rip his WR's. I get it though, we had so many drops in the 2nd half of that FSU game, it was embarrassing. Still I would have left that alone. Makes him look like a "finger pointing, blame deflecting diva" as Skip Bayless would say about Aaron Rodgers

    4.4 is impressive.
    I wish the kid luck in the future.
    Deep balls looked great.
    But we all watched games in real time and his decisions.

    I thought Tim’s 4.72 was impressive.

    Hopefully they can overlay Desmond Watson in that race.

    AR has the physical tools, no doubt.
    Curious what his Wonderlich will be?
    I am cheering for the kid!

    I would like to see him go through Jon Gruden’s QB camp.

    The shocker for me was AR’s recorded height. I thought he was closer to 6-3, if that, than 6-4+.

    Reminds me of when Joakim used to claim to be 6'11" (when it was obvious he was 7'+) so he wouldn't be pigeon holed as a center.

    Usually heights are exaggerated. Remember when 6-6 tackle David Jorgensen came in at 6-2 ?

    First, the headline says "rips WRs" but the quote barely registers, at least for me. He's even-handed about it being a two-way street.

    Also, he's getting rave reviews for the interviews. One GM said he did better than any quarterback this year or last.

    Last point, about sandbagging. We want him to run and take the hits, but what was the QB room behind him? Kitna? Count me in the "notable drop-off to Kitna" camp.

    Disappointing comments from the guy who was supposed to be a team leader. First part was good, second part sounded like an excuse.

    Tim’s speed was never what impressed anyone.

    We all knew AR was going to destry the combine. Good for him, his stock is just rising and he will get 1st Round $

    What comes after is entirely up to him and what's upstairs.

    Do you think that is acceptable while he's playing college football?

    He will improve as a pro. Simply needs more experience and coaching. Did not get enough snaps in college. I think the big question mark for him is can he stay injury free. Was injured in both HS and college. Has a big body but can it take the pounding of NFL ball?
