While talking about how bad Auburn's secondary was on sportscenter, he said LSU won't be able to take advantage of this because of our QB situation and that we don't have any playmakers at wide receiver.

Guess he missed Tolliver dragging Florida's DBs all the place 2 weeks ago.

mcshay is pretty clueless and I honestly have no idea where he gets off being called a draft expert. His evaluations are laughed at by NFL guys

Randle was the best receiver in his class and Shep was also a five star player as was Toliver.

That's it then. I'll call Les and let him know not to even make the trip.

Can't wait to see what he says when we go off. I love how Jenkins was supposed to be some great DB and TT pwnd him.

Did he at least pull the dick out his mouth when he made this comment?

Many NFL scouts have a sore spot for failed NFL scouts who enter the media and attempt to critique the work of NFL scouts who have not yet failed.

Even more NFL scouts have a sore spot for guys who were never NFL scouts, couldn't be if they wanted to, and then attempt to critique the work of folks who became NFL scouts.

Once upon a time, Mel Kiper was the primary target of NFL scouts; Kiper has been supplanted by his on-air protege/rival at ESPN, Todd McShay. As McShay's profile increases, and as he takes on the likes of quarterback Jimmy Clausen for reasons that many league insiders believe have no merit, McShay becomes a magnet for criticism.

"Most people at my level feel he is a joke," a veteran NFL scout told us via e-mail. "People in the league respect Kiper. He is not a true scout but he does work at it. A lot of his info he gets from connections in the league, and over the years he has made quite a few. When he was younger he used to burn some bridges. He doesn't do that any more."

So what about McShay?

"McShay does not have any good connections," the source opined. "Higher-ups in the league think he is an arrogant a-hole. A know-it-all. And he really knows nothing. Whatever he says about a quarterback, take it to the bank, it will be the opposite. Remember, last August he stated that Jevan Snead was better than Colt McCoy and would get drafted in the top five. He has yet to publicly retract that statement.

"One of the reasons the kid came out was because of what McShay said. The family thought McShay knew and everyone else was wrong. . . . He has problems with game management, accuracy and leadership among other things, but pretty boy Todd thought he was great because of one good game (the Cotton Bowl) a year ago. McShay is a pretty face who comes across like he knows what he is talking about. He does have good presence, but knows nothing."

A common name we've heard when it comes to McShay is Andre Woodson. McShay championed Woodson during the 2007 season. Woodson ended up being a sixth-round pick, and he's now out of the league.

The teams knew that Woodson wasn't as good as McShay was saying. The problem is that the player and his family don't have access to what the teams are thinking. The player and his family see and hear the stuff that gets played on television, and they tend to believe it when ESPN attaches to the talking head the phony, official-sounding title of "director of college scouting."


dude is a joke

It would be nice, but noing Miles they won't get the opportunity because JJ will get 60% or more of the plays.

Randle and Tolliver have potential to be amazing WR, they just havent peaked yet, which they will Saturday. Now shep...i still see him as QB, he hasn't developed enough to be a playmaker..or maybe if they didnt only run a freaking WR screen with him he could make plays. HORRAY bad play calling! Out with the option, in with the screen

He must have seen the first 4 games and the parts of the last 3 where JJ was running the offense. With JJ running the offense, Randle is the only one to catch the ball and only gets thrown at maybe 3 times per game. TT and RS have the dropsies and when they do catch the ball it has usually been thrown behind them or at their knees so they can't make a play when it does get to them.

Now if we play Lee this weekend, we'll see what Mcvay has to say about that
