Terrelle Pryor in the NFL

[Jason]

I know, he still has at least 2 more college seasons to play, but that's part of what makes it fun now.

Here are some video clips to help you think about it:

From the 2009 OSU Spring Game:



Playing WR vs Texas


Freshman highlights

[JC]

I think Pryor..if he gets all the throwing down will be like Donavan McNabb. He is pretty agile and has a huge frame.

I think the guy will be an awesome QB..especially if the wildcat formation keeps taking off.

[ThurmanMunster]

bust. if he moved to WR now he would be a good NFL player. he wont transition later and he has no future as a QB in the nfl. (here come the OSU homers).

[Tigris]

he wont even make it as a WR.

no future in the nfl.

think matt jones but wont be as lucky because jacksonville was forced to play jones... they had no one else.

[Tigris]

And by the way... just for everyone that was wondering - I've heard from a couple of first-hand sources that Pryor is a complete prick.

Ditto.

No one really likes him on the team. He feels he is above.

With the way lots of the high-profile amateur recruits publicly vaccillate and waffle over their college choices for attention, and call press conferences as if they're Brett Favre announcing retirements 1-3, it's no wonder so many (if not most) of them turn out to be shitwits.

I have no idea if he'll succeed in the NFL, though I kind of doubt it.

Who's the last great OSU NFL QB?

I just hope he beats Michigan another 2-3 times before he leaves...

So what? I don't care if he was Hitler...Doesn't take away that he will be a great player...Showed lots of potential his freshman year...He's young...Everybody knows how college athletes can be..I'm pretty sure if anybody else had as much hype as Terrelle did last year they would be just as big of a douchebag.

Such a thing doesn't exist.

[Jason]

So, would the 3 of you who voted he would play "other" like to indicate where?

My point.

Just like the last "Great Michigan Running Back".


It doesn't exist...

I'd like to but I have no idea.


Maybe WR?

There is a selection for WR...He'd be disgusting at TE if QB didn't work out for him..

I never said anything about that. I just said that I know from a couple of guys who are around him daily that he's an ass hole. Not everyone that is high-profile is a douchebag, just Pryor... haha just kidding.

Like JC said though, even before I heard anything about him I thought that he looked like a "too good for you" person.

That's because he is

[JC]

Eventually the guys aren't going to want to block for the cat that thinks he's too good for attending study tables while the rest of the team does and is generally an asshole to everyone not in his posse.

Dude is a cunt but very good. He will get his ass kicked if he tries his shit in the NFL though.

I think he could excel in the "Vince Young Role" in a single-clipboard formation.

[#22]

I would say "Wide Receiver" in the Matt Jones or Marcus Vick fashion.
Maybe Kordell Stewart, if he's lucky.

So, other than your hatred for OSU, why?

I got a good chuckle from that...

As for his future - too hard to tell. If he becomes an accurate passer then he'll have a really good chance. If he doesn't he'll flounder around at WR...

And, whoever said he'd be a great TE... what a joke. What, so he could get his ass caved in by the DE??? He'd have to be a constant H-back split out to have any success inside, at all.


And, being a prick asshole... I'm starting to think that is the norm with a lot of these guys... Harvin was at Florida too. They're pampered from about their 8th grade or freshman year of high school (they magically "pass" all this classes when they can't even read or write) and it gets to where they think everything is a given or right, instead of a privilege. He's no different than probably 50% of the other big college football players out there.

Well, if you ran an NFL Football team, do you think that using this guy's speed or using his arm would give your team a better chance to win?

Frankly, the atheltic QB fad in the NFL is on a serious downswing right now.

Miami just went to the playoffs running the wildcat, and you think this copycat league is turning away from the athletic QB?

I would say that the "run first" QB who does not show adequate proficiency as a passer may not have much luck as a starter in this league, but I think Pryor will develop into at least an adequate passer. If the progress he has made in the past year is any indication, and keeping in mind he will be in college AT LEAST 2 more years, I don't think it's unreasonable to thing he could develop into a good passer. He has the size and arm strength that NFL scouts look for.

Talk about OSU homers

If Pryor played for UC you would worship the ground he walked on

What logical reason do you have for saying this?

why do you ask questions for which you already know the answer? (name that movie)
