Going into his senior season, I thought he had a lot of potential. Great frame, strong arm, athletic...and then he actually played and he was...well, quite underwhelming. He got benched eventually for RS Freshman Matt Corral.

Thanks for the info. Was just curious why a QB in the workouts.
I was a fan of P.J Johnson during the draft

As a potential 7th round pick and backup NT to Tomlinson.

He is a big run stuffing NT but offers little as a pass rusher.
Trying out a QB???

This couldn't be because they are thinking of trading Eli and need a 3rd QB on the roster? I can't believe someone would be trading for Tanney???

Need someone to throw to the tryout WR’s.

Plus it’s good to have a scrambling qb on practice squad to play the other teams qb in those situations.

Well some people try to pick up girls
And get called assholes
This never happened to Pablo Picasso
He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare and
So Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole

Well the girls would turn the color
Of the avocado when he would drive
Down their street in his El Dorado
He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare
Pablo Picasso never got called an asshole
Not like you
Alright

Well he was only 5'3"
But girls could not resist his stare
Pablo Picasso never got called an asshole
Not in New York

Oh well be not schmuck, be not obnoxious
Be not bellbottom bummer or asshole
Remember the story of Pablo Picasso
He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare
Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole
Alright this is it

Well
Some people try to pick up girls
And they get called an asshole
This never happened to Pablo Picasso
He could walk down your street
And girls could not resist his stare and so
Pablo Picasso was never called...

.... ( hence to references to asshole, etc.)

Modern Lovers first album (produced by John Cale) is an essential.
