1. What one thing do you think separates you from the other quarterbacks in the draft
2. Who was your favorite quarterback to watch when you were growing up?
3. What level of running ability do you bring to the table on a scale from 1-10? 1 is like Peyton Manning and a 10 around Michael Vick in his prime.
4. What type of #1 receiver would you prefer, a big-bodied jump ball type, or a fast receiver capable of stretching the field?
5. If you could only choose one, would you rather have a strong receiving core, a strong running game, or an elite offensive line?
Definitely my ability to stay calm under pressure and lead a team. If you aren't calm under pressure, then you can throw away any other physical attributes you may possess. A cool collected mind will trump pure athletic ability when the going gets tough.
Honestly, my favorite quarterback growing up was Brett Favre. He was just so fun to watch. The guy may not have been the most accurate passer, but he could gun a ball into tight spaces. I was fortunate to then get to watch Aaron Rodgers, and he was fun to watch for all the right reasons. I think I've done an excellent job of combining both of their games into my own; at least from what I could see on TV.
Let's be real, I'm not Michael Vick. I mean, I ran a 4.64 40 at the combine, so I have SOME speed, but I'm not going to outrun a 4.24 guy in open field. To put a number on it, I'd say 6.7.
My idea target is someone who's easy to see, and able to get up. A tall, big, strong guy who can fight for the ball. I think burners have their purpose; everyone does. But give me a guy like Calvin Johnson and we will ball out.
Choosing one is hard. Of course, as a quarterback, you want all of those things. If I am being honest, I just want to be surrounded by guys who are willing to work and get the job done. That being said, I am mobile enough to move through the pocket and escape. In a perfect world, we will throw the ball 35-40 times, and run the ball 20-25. A strong running game is good to bring up the safeties, but depending on who is out there, you'd want speed so they can blow past the cheating coverage. If you have a solid group of receivers, they will catch the ball, but they need time to get open. Now we've gone full circle. Though, something I learned at a young age, the game starts with the ball in the offensive linemans hands. It's a battle at the trenches. If you have a good offensive line, you can run the ball & you can also give lesser receivers time to get open. I'm sorry for the long answer, but if I had to choose 1, give me the best 5 fat guys up front and I can make it work.
