nebraskafaninwi Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 I hope this isn't initial euphoria-induced hyperbole but I feel reasonably comfortable in saying he is the fastest quarterback I have ever seen take a snap on any level of football. He looks faster than Martinez, Denard Robinson, Pat White, Vick, or RG3. From my perspective, those are the fastest I've seen at QB, in terms of pure speed. Anyone feel free to knock me on the head and say I'm delusional, and that my assessment is just a product of my young age. I hope we get this guy I remember Vick being lighting fast. I think he ran a 4.25 or 4.33 or something like that. That's just straight ahead speed without pads on. I can see what you are saying though. Speed with pads on is different than running it with tight shorts and tight shirt with track shoes on. Quote Link to comment

But I completely agree on the difference. I know when I played high school ball I couldn't get that extra pep in my step in a sterile 40-yard dash measurement setting, as I did when I had the pads on and the adrenaline was pumping. Will Ulmer is football fast. Quote Link to comment
Thanks_Tom RR Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 MUCH better lateral speed and wiggle than Taylor M Really like his running ability Are you comparing this kid to Martinez in HS or College? Because Taylor's lateral movement was probably far better when he was competing against other HS players and not against high level college athletes. That being said, I like this QB as well. Would make a great addition to the team next year. Better lateral movement b/c of better hip flexibility. It's really not hard to see. Look at tape of TM on any tape you want from HS until now, he never shows the hip flexion this guy does on cuts. This guy is loose in the hips, TM is noticeably rigid. Moves well in the pocket and throws well on the run. He reminds me more of Braxton Miller than T-Magic. Miller and Ulmer shake-and-bake as they speed down the field. T-Magic will hit some good angles and just flatout out run you. Quote Link to comment
CMT1525 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Top of my board at QB Quote Link to comment
TAKODA Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Would be a great get for us and could see him fit very well within our system. I don't know about his passing so much as I did not see him look off primary receiver and go to second and third choice in the film I watched. If he does that well, he could be a real gem.

jassman24 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I wounder if this kid is dead set on playing QB because I could see him being a better version of Jamal Turner. Quote Link to comment

Roger Dorn Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Give me Zack Darlington instead I agree, he seems to be a little bit more of an established passer and to fit more of Beck's prototypical quarterback. Quote Link to comment
