I guess there are pros and cons to both finishing his senior year and going to the NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Michael Vick is in another league with his speed and Grossman broke quite a few NCAA records as a sophomore. In most cases with an undersized (below 6'1") QB that is the 1st thing that people are going to point out.No doubt that if Matt keeps at his current pace he'll have a spot at the next level. I wouldn't worry about the criticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear in mind, the NFL prototypical QB is 6'3"+It's a stupid way to evaluate someone-- I agree-- but if lack significant push from the media or our school is "meh" according to th old school line of thinking-- you might get skipped in the draft.Long way to go and we'll see. I know that Marquel never got a fair shake in the NFL and he actully outperformed the draft pick. But when it comes down to it== these GM's and coaches will cut player to save face if they drafted a QB ahead of some free agent. Here's to hoping Matt continues his great play, gets even better, and finds his way into a high draft selection whenever that day comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt is the same as vick, grossman, garcia....so I heard that when he came here and all the he's not tall enough to play d-1 and it really gets old. I think he is playing now in D-1 ball and has his size been any problem??? > > "bartender , another double scotch here for Mr. Flutie here while he settles his nerves...

Even assuming he goes into the draft, and has the chance to prove himself in the NFL, it is still hard going. Having the diploma is a must for his future...NFL or not. Besides, being a little bit selfish, I'd love to see him running the team forever. LOLFlip, you did a great job with Matt. He will make the right decision for himself.

I really hope that he does graduate and then persue The NFL options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
