Should we draft Ponder?



I dunno. The more I read about him the more I like him. I kinda see him as a blend of Brees & CP10. We passed on Brees, much to our chagrin today. Everyone loves CP10, specially as a QB coach. Ponder seems to me to be the Brady pick of this year's draft. Ponder was projected as a first rounder if he had come out last year and is now projected in late 2 to 4 from what I have seen so far. Who cares if he can not throw it 150 yds in the air? How many times in the season, much less any one game does ANY QB throw it 50 to 70 yds in the air? Most of the truly big yard plays are the result of the receiver efforts after the catch. CP10 heaved it some 50 yds in the air to Ginn who was well in front of Revis Island. If CP10 can do it, anyone can. The difference is accuracy. 70 yds in the air is worthless if it can not be caught, because of poor accuracy, overthrow, underthrow, hitting Jerry Jones monster TV screen or whatever. I think I might want to be the driver of the Draft Ponder bandwagon. I don't really like any of the other QBs in this draft except maybe Colin K.
