I guess this means Kinne doesn't stick. Was pulling for the kid. Sanchez, Tebow, Simms/Kinne/McElroy. Which one of those last three goes away?

GMCJETS · 05-06-2012, 03:15 PM

McElroy is the far most talented of the bunch. I sure hope his mouth didnt cost him a spot on this team.

DDNYjets · 05-06-2012, 03:17 PM

Definitely worth a look. You never know when the pedigree might kick in.

jxc · 05-06-2012, 03:18 PM

Loses starting job in college, gets signed by an NFL team. That makes a lot of sense. :huh:

Why is he the most talented, have you seen the others in action yet?

Help me out with what makes mcilroy far more talented

Ven0m · 05-06-2012, 03:41 PM

Wouldn't say talent is the highlight of McElroy's game. Smart? Sure. Accurate? Seems to be. But 6'1" or so with a so-so arm doesn't exactly scream someone gifted with natural talents. That's why he was a 7th round pick. I think his roster spot is absolutely on the line, for reasons moreso then his mouth. I'd say Kinne is more a threat to McElroy's job status then Simms though, but maybe they see Simms as a potential practice squad guy, who knows.

championship!

McElroy won a National Championship at Alabama hes got great skills and a seems to be an accurate passer who doesnt make alot of mistakes.

BX Jet Fan · 05-06-2012, 04:22 PM

McElroy threw a floater in the preseason. The faster he is gone the better IMO.

McElroy junior and senior season 5500 yards 37 Tds

Kinney 6700 yards 59 Tds

And Tebow. 5600 yards 51 Tds. And 26 rushing Tds.

Please mention the fact that what McElroy did was against the toughest defenses in college football and won a National Championship.

The point is a good college career doesn't make one a good pro qb

The thread starter said McElroy was far ahead of the other qbs, I wanted to know why he or she thought so

Probably the only QB that will understand the playbook at the start of the season. Others are camp arms.
