Competitiveness 1.1 He is the classic fan favorite with Brett Favre toughness and

mentality. He is the type that will initiate contact on defenders and

will not hesitate to get into the face of an opponent. 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. Frye proved in 2002 that he could play with pain (broken

thumb) and just keeps attacking the defenses, even when he knows

he is drastically outnumbered.

I'm no expert draft analyst, but how is ever couple years a guy from Cal emerges as a top notch talent -- goest high in the draft and amounts to nothing in the NFL -- yet every couple years they do the same thing. I'd trade Kyle Boller for Charlie Frye straight up today.

Nice Find UA Fan! This guy seemed very knowledgeable on Frye, kinda like he watched a few games....I imagine it was all on film. I think the one comment I didn't agree with was when he said Charlie has "Ball Security Issues". I thought that was probably his biggest assest, considering all the pressure he was under, he took very good care of the ball! I also noticed that one of his worst games in 2003 was UCONN. If I remember correctly, he was hobbling the entire game, I thought he made a heroic effort. If he is simply rating the performance independent of injury, that could be why. Though I am a bit critical, I think this guy pretty much expressed what we knew all along.

Dave, I may not have replied but immediately read this story when you posted it. A big thanks to you and all of the other well informed forum members who share info that I would never have.

Thanks to another posting I was able to watch the coverage of the NFL Combine - I woulds never have known to look for that either. You all keep me well informed....well, better informed anyway :)

Funny, I linked to this report 3 weeks ago, and even after bumping the thread, no one seemed interested.

DTMZF:

I had seen your earlier post including this link but maybe hadn't taken time to check it out and in any case forgot about it. Sorry, didn't mean to steal your thunder & I appreciate everyone's efforts in posting news as they find it. These message boards are a great information clearinghouse.

Go Zips!
