Pat White wants to try NFL again - Jets Insider.com Forums

jetman in indy · 01-23-2013, 05:47 PM

I wouldn't mind the Jets taking a look at this kid. We know he can run and he has a decent arm and is fairly accurate. He could make the team I believe.

Sorry we are full of Bust Qb's on the Roster already ....

He'd be the ideal replacement for Tebow.

I would like both Suckchez and Tebow to go!

didn't the new QB Coach David Lee have White as a QB?

JB1089 · 01-23-2013, 07:28 PM

Pat White has seen what Russell Wilson accomplished this year and wants another crack at things. I think they were incredibly similar college QBs: undersized, very mobile, and accurate with good arm strength.

The comparisons go beyond football, as I believe that Pat White was also a very good baseball player.

Good luck to him. Maybe he can catch on as a backup on a team that uses the read option system.

He could compete with Jamarcus Russell for a spot on the roster.

I want a shot at the NFL.

I mean, I'm old, a little fat, can't really jump too high. I think I can have enough arm strength to throw a good screen pass (which Sanchez can't do). I can totally run 40 yards.

Plus, I have 3 kids who are draining me of all my cash, kind of like a lot of retired NFL guys. Although, all 3 of my kids are from the same woman, so that's not good for the NFL.

Seriously, what are all these players that "want a shot again"? You had a shot, and whether by lack of talent, or too much purple drink you didn't make it. Go get a job, and cry about all the money you blew.

I hope you're not comparing JaWalrus and Pat White. The Walrus got fat, this happened to Pat White:

The Walrus was the #1 pick, got an enormous contract and never put the work in. Pat White was a 2nd round pick that was just getting his shot. That was like his sixth or seventh play in the game, the first time he had gotten non-Wildcat snaps at QB.

Did he retire, or was he cut due to injury?

I honestly did not remember why he was out of the NFL. However, if it took him a year to come back from a concussion, given today's news where Junior Seau's family is suing for wrongful death due to concussions, would Goddell not try to keep him out of the league?

johnnysd · 01-23-2013, 08:46 PM

I might sign him to a contract and see what he does in camp. He was very impressive at the combine and never got a real shot at Miami which was a bad fit.

He was cut the next year during training camp and disappeared after that. I don't know where he's been.

Sexi Rexi · 01-23-2013, 09:16 PM

He's been playing minor league baseball.

JumbalayaJet · 01-23-2013, 10:28 PM

Well he's cheaper than Geno but we still have to solidify the position and clear some dead wood before we take in any more projects.

He is like a dumber Russell Wilson

adpz · 01-23-2013, 11:01 PM

I always wondered what happened to that guy . . .

I'd definitely be interested in taking a look at Pat White. Although running was a big part of his game, his passing numbers from WV are totally respectable - and the Big East isn't too shabby. Worth a look.

Pat White doesn't have 1/36th the talent of Russell Wilson. He's a poor man's Brad Smith which basically means he's crap concentrate.
