Yeah, knew something wasn't right...

Kidding aside, we're gonna have to get a Football Europe Group going so you can educate us on where the state of the game is there without the Goodell, League filter...

Gave him another 30 minute session right after Tulane's pro day, gave him a portion of the playbook to learn, and signed him to a three year deal after Friday's pro day and before the rookie minicamp...

He's gotta be more than just a camp arm...

had me giggling with this one

“Concordia is a triple-option team,” Carpenter said. “Literally. Like, old-school Oklahoma, like back in the day with Barry Switzer.”

Actually I heard about this kid. Typical Upper Midwestern scandi. BIg smart and surprisingly very athletic. Lets be honest upper mid west is not known for overly athletic white boys. Heck put a horned helment on the kid and he could stand in for the show the Vikings.

The biggest knock besides level of comp was the system he was in. I would rather start working with a triple option QB than these spread offense types. At least they have a complete read progression. So any ways he goes to the

Hildesheim Invaders works on three- and five-step drops. learning defensive fronts, blitzes, pass protections, coverages, route combinations.

Actually I never considered him then as anything more than a UDFA camp arm in 2014 and I completely forgot about him.

I can not wait for camp and see what this kid has done to his game. You never know we may have signed a poor man version of Paxton Lynch but with a year or two camp under his belt.

Been a while since I had a camp underdog at QB to cheer for.
