Coversations with a Scout
–I asked him to compare and contrast Luke Joeckel and Lane Johnson, two of the top tackles in the draft that are widely expected to be top 12 picks. Note that this is a regional scout who has not closely evaluated Eric Fisher, but he has seen both Joeckel and Johnson in person in both practices and games. Joeckel “is the real deal. Love his feet. Love his feet.” He raved about Joeckel’s technique and athleticism, though said the latter attribute was “being played up too much above his waist.” The scout liked Johnson but sees more of a project than many do. “He’s still too deliberate with his feet” and he went on to talk about a practice session at Oklahoma where the OL Coach spent a long time working with Johnson about stepping into his punch and widening his base on his slide step. “Joeckel doesn’t have those issues” though he did add that he feels Johnson is a better run blocker in space than Joeckel.
–Staying on Oklahoma, the scout surprised me some with his thoughts on QB Landry Jones. He told me that he felt Oklahoma’s offense stymied Jones and “dumbed him down”. He advised me that the Sooners coaches emphasized being a game manager but that when he saw Jones asked to make plays he was a much better quarterback. “He feeds off confidence and he felt like the coaches didn’t trust him enough” to turn him loose and let him attack. Jones nailed their Combine interview, showing a more complete understanding of running an offense than showed in his play. I do not see Jones this way at all, and that led to an animated but amicable discussion on Jones’ prospects. The discussion ended with this quote, “Like it or not, someone is going to take Landry Jones on Friday night”. I emptied my Dos Equis rapidly on that note.

That would explain never going downfield vs kstate or notre dame or even a and m
Or maybe that they dumbed it down because of Landry.
Landry has first round talent. He just has a UFA head.Originally Posted by Meni
It's difficult for a coach to trust someone to stretch the field when that coach shotput the football in his playing days.
Of course, that QB will always be remembered for leading the Sooners to their 7th NC while the other QB will be remembered as OU's all-time losingest QB and OU's all-time leading interception leader.
How is Landry OU's most losing QB. His winning % has to be better than last place.
Total losses by a starting Sooner QB. Sure, that's because he played for four years, but him playing for four years is also a big reason why he is OU's "all-time winningest QB".
In the Stoops era.
better winning % than bradford
which is friday night
Yeah, if only Bradford could have gotten to play against bad Texas teams and the likes of Stanford, UCONN and Iowa in bowl games like Landry did. What could have been. Pfft.
Which starting OU QB in history has more total losses than Landry?
total losses or half losses?
Quarter losses!
Landry has 11.
We lost 28 games from 94-98, so Possibly Eric Moore or Garrick McGee.
Could be a few guys from the 60s
And about half of those he's 90% responsible for.
Moore and McGee may not have started enough given games for that given that Jerrod Reese, Brandon Daniels, Justin Fuente, Jake Sills and Patrick Fletcher also started in those various years. What a cluster. OU broke the NCAA record for most QB's utilized in a half in the KSU game.
Haven't read it yet. May have been posted already, March 25th dated article. Landry workout with Bills. http://www.buffalobills.com/news/art...2-c25b65abf739
Pretty sure they signed Kolb (sp)? All the teams who need QB's are taking their chances through free agency. Other than Geno Smith, it's not looking good for this years QB cl**** (draft position).
There's been some pretty negative stuff floating around about Geno too. I'm starting to think we might only have one QB drafted in he first round, possibly none in the first half of hat round. These guys are as good or better than Gabbert, Ponder, et al. I think that the rookie restructuring is really going to hurt QBs and RBs going forward.
Pretty much what I said after the draft last year, when I was making the case that LJ really screwed himself (at least financially) by not leaving for the NFL. It was pretty obvious that there weren't many teams who were going to be looking for a QB in this draft.
I could end up being wrong, but I still think that there aren't going to be many QBs taken high this year...like someone above said, Smith may be it. LJ had a great shot to go to Miami last year.
Adjusting my prediction to round three...

Should have stuck with my original prediction....
Landry drafted to Steelers in Round 4
WINNER

BINGO!!! Round 4 (115)
Well, that list did get 2 of the QBs right.
thank you for playing January 29th, 2013, somehow the 2 "jerks" on the board, nailed the pick
Pretty good place to land.
Idiot called it correctly.....but then I see you later changed your pick.
I've never cared for the Steelers but they are a good organization. Maybe he can have success there.
Yeah...I'm an idiot
