chow184 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 arm strength,I'd say campbell has the stronger arm. accuracy-push woodson has more of an impressive college record, but woodson's throwing mechanics are supposed to be god awful and he normally played out of a shot gun and would have to get used to lining up under center in the NFL. though his stats don't show it campbell showed improvement in reading and being able to move coverage with his eyes. That's supposed to be one of Woodsons flaws. I'd say there comparable,but woodson should spend a year on the bench working on his mechanics and getting to see what NFL defenses do on a game-game basis.

CRobi21 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Well you should probably ask the people on the Kentucky (I think that's where he goes) football forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinWarship Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 i think they meant that they kind of look-alike. which one is which? i can't tell!:rubeyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jflagg215 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 From what I saw of Woodson he is as accurate with less of an arm. Not by much though, he still throws a good deep ball. He is more mobile than JC as well but he is no Seneca Wallace (I would say no Vick but I don't like going there anymore.) Woodson is a promising prospect if he learns to read defenses more accurately. That was his biggest flaw. He missed alot of open receivers last year in some big games that led to some drive killers. He could develop into a solid starting QB in the right offense. I think he is better than Grossman but that is just my humble opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aszumilo Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Whether he is as good as Campbell or not, he has to be better than what the Bears have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terpskins10 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I think Woodson has a huge arm, but slightly less than Campbell. I think what draws comparisons the most is their toughness in the pocket and ability to squeeze the ball into tight spots. Contrary to what people have said, Woodson is actually a bit slower than Campbell with regard to straight line speed. He might be a more fluid runner though. Throwing mechanics are similar as both have a long, windup release which definitely suits a downfield offense more. Campbell probably has more mid-to long range accuracy but Woodson, at least at the college level, was definitely better on the shorter range outs and slants. All in all, I like Woodson as a prospect but don't expect him to come in and play well until his third or fourth year in the league (cough, same with Campbell all you haters). He needs some development and polish on his mechanics but I definitely don't think he's as big a gamble as some of the draft gurus might tell you. He's got some game and if he lands in the right place, he's going to be a good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold21 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Let's not forget in Campbell's senior year he completed like 70% of his passes. Bigger arm, Campbell by far. Anything is better then Grossman... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold21 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 You gotta like the history of the Bears though. Monsters of the Midway [ The 46 ] Butkus Sayers Payton thats about the extent of my love for the bears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moreover, the amount of time the ball spends in the air, ie can he get the ball to the receiver in a hurry... All in all, the kid can ball.

Stew Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Chicago should never have given Rex an extension, they should have made a play for Losman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could develop into a solid starting QB in the right offense. I think he is better than Grossman but that is just my humble opinion. Grossman can play but my grandma is a more inspiring leader. The woodson kid is a baller, but I would worry about his ability to play smart in the pro game. He is mobile, as is Jason but that is one area where I think he may be more of a threat than jason. His initial reaction to a busted play or scramble will be to tuck and run. jason will take off, but if he can throw it he will. Zorn said they are working on Jason's ability to avoid the pass rush without necessarily deserting the pocket. IF jason can master that we could have a scary good offense.
