Better know a draft sleeper…(Dan LeFevour QB-Central Michigan)
If you’re someone who loves college football? You have to know that the Mid-American Conference is a conference where you can find yourself a quarterback of a fine vintage. And in the offseason job interview that is the NFL Draft process, someone who seemed to be a version of a Rust Belt Tim Tebow has the look of something more.
What we’ve always known about LeFevour is that he’s a hyper-productive sort who does have that sort of a high gunslinger q-rating. At least in terms of intangibles. But here’s the thing? He has that sort of awareness that makes him a real prospect. (Corey Chavous of the NFL Network has him as the number one quarterback prospect.)
That is to say that he doesn’t have the pro prospect sheen of a Casey Clausen or a laser rocket arm of a John Skelton. He’s just shown himself to be a strong decisionmaker who can make things happen with his legs.
I mean, if you see him go up against a team that won exactly nothing all year, you’d want to see domination, right? Right.
And there you go. Dan LeFevour. In a nutshell. If you want a bold projection before I go? Dan LeFevour is the next Aaron Rodgers.
BOLD!

I wanted to share with you a great highlight video I posted of quarterback John Skelton (Fordham) on YouTube. John has been invited to the NFL combine this year, but because he hails from such a small university, there isn’t much footage of him out there – until now.

A lot of buzz has been generated about John and his 6’5’’, 250-pound frame – but it’s his powerful arm and deceptive speed that I think will make him a success in the NFL. Like all college quarterbacks, he has some learning to do before he’s ready to compete at the highest level, but you can’t argue with the game footage I’ve compiled here. In a year of “weak” quarterbacks, I think John really stands out.
Anyway, I thought you would be interested in the clip, and I think your blog readers would be too. Keep up the great work!
