Bleacher Report writer Aaron Nagler ftw.


EDIT: Not a bad video at all. He looks like he just has a huge gut from too many potato chips and soft drinks/beers, but other than that looks okay. I don't think he will be able to get in NFL shape for this summer though. He looks like he's about a year off from being in great shape if he wants to do it. I absolutely think he could be a really good NFL QB in 2014, but I just don't think he has enough time to work off that gut this spring. I'm hoping he sticks with it.



P.S. -- It's funny how big he is standing next to Garcia.

I have to think not many teams will scramble trying to pick up someone getting close to 30, but if he impresses in a minor league somewhere who knows? Brandon Weeden is older, believe it or not.

But if he can pull it off, more power to him.

If only that video were from about 4 or 5 months ago, I would have actually given him a good shot for making an NFL team for the 2013 season.

I'm pulling for him. Would be a great story if he was even able to come back and just be a backup for the next 5-7 years. I forgot what a freaking cannon that guy had.

Gotta get that gut off. That's the biggest thing holding him down right now, no pun intended.

Would be a fantastic story. 2014 is more realistic.

The most talented QB we have ever had and I wish him the best. I'll never understand the people who hated him at LSU yet chanted "one more year" after the Sugar Bowl. He can't be worse than half the league backups. He just wasn't worth all that money for someone to let him sit. If he had gone to a team to learn a few years he could be a starter today somewhere. Oakland and their shitty coach ruined him by allowing him to become lazy and not giving him anyone to work with.

He seems to have matured a lot. If he can lose 30 pounds and stay focused, he might surprise a few people.

Who would you rather take a chance with, Tebow or Jamarcus?

I would go with Jamarcus all day.

There are some horrible 2nd string QBs in the league.

He will get a chance this fall to compete somewhere..

I'm very surprised at his speed, and his vertical with his height. Wish nothing but the best for him.
