Yeah, he seemed to overthrow 4 out of 5 deep balls. Missed a lot of open receivers down the field the past two years because of it.

He has an absolute cannon and may be the best pure intermediate passer in the draft. If he commits to being an elite quarterback, the only thing that will hold him back will be his complete lack of mobility. He can be Drew Bledsoe 2.0 I think, which would amount to a pretty successful NFL career.

Bomani's Twitter Account is on point. Two examples:

During the 2012 LSU/Bama game, he live Tweeted after JC Copeland's long Pass Reception, "Kimbo Slice or Rick Ross playing for LSU just caught a 50 yard pass."

After the SI piece on Okie State, he Tweeted, "Where the sex at?"

The Louisville kid is a player. IMO, he is the most NFL ready out of the top three names.

Someone on NFL radio said that for a big guy Bortles didn't have a big arm. I have never seen him play but just going off various reports their are questions about each of the top three. If I'm Houston, there isn't any question that Clowney would be my #1 pick. He has all the physical tools. The only thing that people question is his work ethic and that's something you can improve on. Take him and get a Mettenberger later. Now, there is the risk that if Mettenberger really lights it up at pro day he could go earlier in the 2nd round but Houston has that first pick too.
