More on Charlie Frye

[Dave in Green]

Found a couple of more interesting links on #5. First is a Pro Football Weekly report on the Senior Bowl that didn't show up in previous Google searches. This is probably the best story yet on #5's performance in the Senior Bowl, as it gets to the game poise and leadership intangibles that are so critical in the NFL.

The next link is about the most awesome I've seen to date. Frank Cooney's NFL Draft Scout "provides premium NFL Draft analysis to NFL teams, agents and major media outlets", i.e. members who pay for it. To entice people to sign up, they include free links to extensive scouting reports on two players, and one just happens to be Charlie Frye. When you read this lengthy report, you will understand the level of detail that pro scouts generate. It will also leave absolutely no doubt about who he is being compared most closely to:

"He is the classic fan favorite with Brett Favre toughness and mentality."

"He is an aggressive playmaker who will sacrifice his body and play with reckless abandon (much like Favre in the early years) to make the play."

"Few show the short touch he displays, again drawing comparisons to Favre in this category."

"He will stand in vs. the blitz and while he does take a lot of hits, he has the toughness that only Brett Favre can rival."

"Compares To: Brett Favre-Green Bay. (Green Bay can find themselves the true successor to Favre by drafting his clone in the first round)."

"While junior quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers and Alex Smith are more highly touted, I feel that in the long run, Frye will come closest to being a Brett Favre clone than any other passer in this draft."

Hmm. No comments on the detailed scouting report? Had everyone already seen this? Am I just more easily impressed than everyone else?
