| Senior Bowl quarterbacks ready for NFL audition |
|---|
MOBILE, Ala. (AP) Quarterbacks at all-star games have tough assignments. The six Senor Bowl signal callers will be playing off cliff notes of a new offense, throwing to unfamiliar receivers and taking snaps from a new center in Saturday's NFL showcase. And they'll all do it from under center, not the shotgun for those more accustomed to the spread in college. All the while with dozens of scouts, coaches and NFL execs studying their every move on and off the field. |

Buccaneers selected North Carolina State QB Mike Glennon with the No. 73 overall pick. Glennon (6-7, 225) took over NC State's offense following Russell Wilson's transfer and started two seasons, completing 60.3 percent of his throws with a 62:29 TD-to-INT ratio. Glennon is Rotoworld draft analyst Josh Norris' No. 4 QB in this class. Built like a young Joe Flacco with a powerful downfield arm, Glennon is an accurate deep passer. "Built like an oak tree," ESPN's Ron Jaworski has described. Glennon isn't a quality athlete, tends to hold onto the ball too long, and too often retreats rather than stepping up amid collapsing pockets. Sheer arm talent still makes him a quality developmental project -- and a great fit for Bucs OC Mike Sullivan's vertical scheme. Josh Freeman should consider himself on notice. |

Glennon (6-7, 225) took over NC State's offense following Russell Wilson's transfer and started two seasons, completing 60.3 percent of his throws with a 62:29 TD-to-INT ratio. Glennon is Rotoworld draft analyst Josh Norris' No. 4 QB in this class. Built like a young Joe Flacco with a powerful downfield arm, Glennon is an accurate deep passer. "Built like an oak tree," ESPN's Ron Jaworski has described. Glennon isn't a quality athlete, tends to hold onto the ball too long, and too often retreats rather than stepping up amid collapsing pockets. Sheer arm talent still makes him a quality developmental project -- and a great fit for Bucs OC Mike Sullivan's vertical scheme. Josh Freeman should consider himself on notice.
The Chicago Bears are working out NC State QB Mike Glennon on Tuesday. These last minute workouts are always intriguing. Jay Cutler is entering the final portions of his contract, and with no extension on the horizon the team could look to at least bring in competition. Glennon has a great arm and can make solid throws when in rhythm, but struggles in the face of interior pressure.
SI's Peter King writes a few teams love NC State QB Mike Glennon. King could see Glennon has a late second-round pick and calls him "an acquired taste." The Wolfpack quarterback could do well in a team that runs an offense featuring three and five step drops, quick reads, with a faster tempo, since the longer Glennon holds the ball the more fans will get worried.
ESPN's Rich Cimini believes the Jets could select a QB in the second-round. Cimini suggested Mike Glennon as a possibility since former Jets quarterback Ken O'Brien has tutored the NC State product. The beat writer also threw out the name Jordan Rodgers, little brother of Aaron, since he worked with O'Brien as well.
Local Buffalo media member Sal Capaccio tweeted that he has been told the Bills remain "fairly high" on NC State QB Mike Glennon. Capaccio went on to note that this "doesn't mean they are 'in love' or will target him... but they have liked him for a while and still have him higher than most would tend to think." The Bills have been linked to almost every single quarterback prospect, and the only obvious move seems to be that they will select at least one.
Buffalo Bills reporter John Murphy writes the team will host N.C. State QB Mike Glennon, Southern Miss LB Jamie Collins, LSU WR Russell Shepard and Clemson S Jonathan Meeks. The Bills have been very busy during the draft process, visiting and working out seemingly every quarterback in the class. Glennon would be an interesting fit for the team because he can push the ball downfield. As for Collins, he's a raw pass-rusher but has a lot of upside and would be a good fit in defensive coordinator Mike Pettine's scheme. LSU's Shepard is a wide receiver but teams have wondered about him playing defensive back, according to reports. Clemson's Meeks is viewed as a strong safety in the NFL.
NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah tweeted that teams keep telling him they won't reach for a QB during April's draft. Jeremiah notes that the same teams believe the second-round is where the value is for quarterbacks, so all the veteran passer additions make sense. Teams can say this all they want, but there is no certainty those same decision makers will wait once they find "their guy."
NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah believes the Arizona Cardinals will target a QB in the second-round, specifically NC State's Mike Glennon. "I keep hearing Glennon is their guy... Who knows," Jeremiah tweeted. If the Cardinals focus on their offensive line, specifically in the first-round, the fit does make some sense. Glennon can test the field vertically, but he struggles to buy time, something previous quarterbacks under Bruce Arians have done very well.
Cardinals GM Steve Keim and assistant coach Tom Moore will workout QB Mike Glennon on NC State's campus on Tuesday. We have previously mocked Glennon to the Cardinals at No. 7, but we expect the team to pass on the position in the early parts of the first-round. Glennon, however, could be a target on the second day due to his downfield ability, a trait that Bruce Arians has valued in previous coaching spots.
NFL.com's Bucky Brooks writes NC State QB Mike Glennon has "glimpses" of Joe Flacco in his game. "Even quiet leaders like Eli Manning and Joe Flacco have to step up and hold their teammates accountable by challenging them in one-on-one or small-group confrontations," Brooks writes. "Evaluators still have concerns about whether Glennon possesses that take-charge personality. When I asked Glennon about this following the workout, he pointed to the leadership styles of Manning and Flacco as examples of how he envisions his personality evolving at the next level. Furthermore, he told me to ask his teammates if they believed he had the moxie to be a leader at the highest level."
NC State QB Mike Glennon looked good during his "high risk pro day" workout, according to NFL Network's Bucky Brooks. "I think he is a second-round quarterback, all day every day, when you look at this talent," Brooks said. "He has a big arm. He has an ability to play in the pocket. He can make all the throws that you want to see. The thing that is keeping him out of the conversation as a first-round player is that he is not a great athlete, because he can't move around in the pocket and because he doesn't have the escapability you look for in elite quarterbacks."
ESPN's Chris Mortensen believes the Cardinals are targeting NC State QB Mike Glennon, but not necessarily at pick No. 7. "I really believe the guy they're hoping to get somewhere, whether it's in the second round ... is Mike Glennon," said Mortensen. "Their new head coach, Bruce Arians, likes big guys with big arms who can get the ball downfield." Our own Josh Norris previously mocked Glennon to the Cardinals at No. 7, but we think Arians is happy to stick with Stanton as the starter this year. Glennon could be a target at No. 38.
ESPN's Todd McShay is still waiting to hear from any league sources that have a true first-round grade on a QB from this class. "I don't know of anyone in the league that I've talked to that has a true first-round grade on any of these quarterbacks," McShay noted on a conference call Friday. He then added that not a single one of these quarterbacks would have been ranked higher than fourth compared to last year's class.
NC State QB Mike Glennon will reportedly throw at the Combine. He joins the rest of the quarterback party, and this is shaping to be one of the few occasions in recent memory where the potential top quarterbacks all throw at the event. Glennon has nothing to hide after displaying the same skills he showed during his time at NC State.
Pro Football Talk cites a league source who expects NC State QB Mike Glennon and USC QB Matt Barkley to have strong performances at the Combine. The same source said that level of performance "could vault them much higher in the draft than most expect them to go." It will be the first offseason exposure for Barkley while Glennon showed off similar skills during the Senior Bowl that he displayed in college.
The NFL Network's Bucky Brooks believes one area of concern NFL teams might have for NC State QB Mike Glennon is his leadership. "Glennon is a borderline first-round pick based on his arm talent, but because of his soft-spoken demeanor, some NFL scouts wonder about his ability to command a huddle," writes Brooks. "Glennon doesn't ooze charisma like some franchise quarterbacks, which makes some scouts nervous about the prospect of asking him to lead a group of strong personalities."
ESPN's Trent Dilfer believes there's an argument for NC State's Mike Glennon and Oklahoma's Landry Jones to be selected before Matt Ryan or Joe Flacco if all four were in the 2008 draft. "Mike Glennon and Landry Jones are extremely talented passers," said Dilfer. "If they were in the [2008 draft] group, I can make an argument both of them would go before Flacco and Ryan from a stature, arm-talent standpoint. But now they're looked at as, 'Eh, late first-round, second-round ...' because they don't do all this other stuff that we all love. Drafting the Flaccos of the world, you'll see them slide a little more, and you'll see that this year."
ESPN's Mel Kiper does not list a single QB in his updated Big Board featuring the top 25 prospects in the 2013 draft. As expected, the top 25 is loaded with offensive linemen and defensive prospects. Zero quarterbacks is not surprising and might become more popular as the draft inches closer and closer. Still, at least a few will be selected much higher than where the consensus evaluation places them.
NFL personnel "people" recently told Russ Lande that NC State QB Mike Glennon's tape reminds them of Matt Ryan's while at Boston College. "Perhaps the quarterback that has NFL evaluators the most split, Glennon gets a chance to prove he should be a first round pick," Lande wrote. Like Ryan, Glennon's tape is full of mistakes, but teams will be intrigued by his wow throws, frame, and ability to quickly work through progressions.
After speaking to "several top personnel guys" in St. Petersburg during this week's East-West Shrine all-star event, NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah confirms that the feeling around the league is this year's quarterback class "lacks top talent." West Virginia's Geno Smith is the top quarterback prospect, and he has a so-so arm. North Carolina State's Mike Glennon has a better arm, but plays very inconsistently with bodies around him. Arkansas' Tyler Wilson has accuracy issues, and Syracuse's Ryan Nassib throws the deep ball poorly. Jeremiah anticipates a quarterback run at the end of the first round and into the second.
NC State senior Mike Glennon is the only QB ranked in Mel Kiper's top-25 Big Board, and is listed as the 21st overall prospect. Kiper notes that Glennon was "a victim of tons of drops" and "the tape will help his case." The bowl game wasn't pretty, but Glennon could put on a great showing in Mobile. "I don't see him as an immediate starter in an ideal situation, but he has a high ceiling. A guy who could actually get better between now and the draft," Kiper wrote.
During an interview on Friday, ESPN's Mel Kiper predicted that when "all is said and done" NC State senior Mike Glennon will be the top QB in the 2013 Draft. Kiper cited Glennon's frame, big arm, intelligence, Tom O'Brien's desire to start him over Russell Wilson, and blamed the senior's supporting cast for a multitude of drops. Take it for what you want, but Glennon could thrive down in Mobile since he will not have to face consistent pressure, especially from the interior. He would work best in an up-tempo, quick hitting offense. Kiper added that he expects Glennon to be selected in the top-15, followed by Matt Barkley and Geno Smith in the late first-round.
NC State senior QB Mike Glennon completed 35-of-53 attempts for 383 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions against Vanderbilt. Two of Glennon's interceptions were poor decisions thrown falling off of his back foot. The senior certainly didn't get any help from his receivers, but Gelnnon didn't make it easier on himself. A team may fall in love with his size, arm, and success in an up-tempo, quick decision offense, but we have many questions left unanswered.
Members of the Vanderbilt defense said they expect NC State QB Mike Glennon to play similarly to Tennessee junior QB Tyler Bray. "Glennon has a real nice arm on him," Vanderbilt cornerback Trey Wilson said. "I would put him a very close second, in terms of arm strength, behind Bray. They take some chances... I want to see how many chances they are going to take with us." When looking at Bray's totals against Vanderbilt, 103 yards on 11-of-29 passing and two interceptions, this isn't much of a compliment. Neither are very mobile, but Glennon works much better in a quicker tempo offense.
Former NFL scout Russ Lande lists NC State senior Mike Glennon as his top overall quarterback. Also, not quarterback is ranked above number 32, with four prospects at the position listed in the 32-41 range. Glennon tops Arkansas' Tyler Wilson, WVU's Geno Smith, and USC's Matt Barkley as the top four quarterbacks ranked in Lande's top-200. This is just another reason why we will not be surprised by any order the quarterbacks are selected in this April.
"There are a lot of people out there who see some Matt Schaub in" NC State senior QB Mike Glennon, according to one NFL scout who talked with CBS Sports' Rob Rang. The scout added that "Glennon looks the part and in this class," and "that could be enough." Its easy to see what many like about Glennon, especially in a fast paced, short step offense where quick decision making and height are advantages. Still, he won't be everyone's favorite, but Glennon certainly has a chance to be an early first-round pick.
Buffalo Bills GM Buddy Nix has "gone out of his way" to drop big hints about drafting a QB in April. Beat writer Tim Graham believes it may be a marketing strategy, either in the hopes of Nix saving his job or building enthusiasm for the Bills heading into the offseason. "I can recall twice in the past month Buddy Nix -- almost as a non sequitur -- delivered a revelation about drafting a QB in April," Graham tweeted. This isn't the first time Nix has discussed this kind of possibility, but 2013 may be the time he invests an early round pick at the position.
On a conference call, ESPN's Mel Kiper stated that NC State senior Mike Glennon could be the first QB off the board. Everything is so fluid at this point since it is very early in the process, but nothing would surprise us regarding this quarterback class. Without a clear top option, every team will fall in love with a certain "flavor" of quarterback, and the range of grades and rankings of this group will likely vary drastically.
NC State will play Vanderbilt in the Music City Bowl on December 31. Mike Glennon should finish on a high against a Commodore defense that lacks NFL talent. The Wolfpack senior flourishes in a quick hitting, faster tempo offense, but if pressured up the middle Glennon does have issues. For Vanderbilt, running back Zac Stacy and junior receiver Jordan Matthews are two to watch. NC State junior corner David Amerson could have a difficult time turning and running with the latter.
NC State QB Mike Glennon will attend the Senior Bowl. Glennon is the third attending quarterback that has been announced, joining Florida State's EJ Manuel and Arkansas' Tyler Wilson. No quarterback has more buzz around them then Glennon, but without a clear top option every team will vary on how they stack the board. The Wolfpack senior should show well, however, due to the lack of pressure he will have to deal with in practice.
SI's Tony Pauline lists NC State senior QB Mike Glennon as a fourth-round prospect. Pauline says that Glennon is a, "strong arm passer that powers the ball into targets yet marginally accurate with poor pass placement." No quarterback has had buzz surrounding him than Glennon in recent weeks, but his class offers plenty of different flavor types rather than a prospect we can all agree on.
SI's Peter King wrote that NC State senior QB Mike Glennon "should be picked in the top-50" of April's Draft. This nugget came up when King was discussing Russell Wilson's exit from NC State. King may be the most plugged in of any national NFL writer, so it is telling that Glennon's name is already being mentioned in the top-50. There will be plenty of variance in quarterback rankings, so only a certain number of teams will likely value Glennon that highly.
NC State senior QB Mike Glennon threw three interceptions, along with completing 23-of-46 attempts for 197 yards and a touchdown, Saturday against Virginia. Glennon was also sacked five times. The senior faced pressure all day and didn't respond positively, holding onto passes on quick three and five step drops and throws rather than getting the ball out of his hand. Glennon has created a tremendous amount of buzz in recent weeks, but he's limited to the pocket and struggles to create have the first or second read.
Former NFL scout Bucky Brooks wrote that NC State senior QB Mike Glennon might "be the best quarterback available in the 2013 NFL Draft." Brooks goes into a lot of detail but cites three primary reasons: arm talent, pocket presence, and leadership. He adds that Glennon is currently a "borderline first-round pick on boards across the NFL." Brooks believes that Glennon will, "make a dramatic jump up the charts as the evaluation process continues." These are some very strong words in favor of Glennon, and we struggle to see the Wolfpack senior as more than a second day pick, at best.
NC State senior QB Mike Glennon threw for 467 yards, five touchdowns and two interceptions Saturday against UNC on 29-of-52 completions. Glennon was in command of the offense, working through progressions and quick throws, while the Wolfpack offensive line played a big role due to creating a clean pocket. We worry about Glennon in a muddled pocket or when facing pressure, but he rarely dealt with that issue Saturday.
NFL Network's Bucky Brooks tweeted that the "word on the street" is NC State senior Mike Glennon may end up being the second QB off the board after West Virginia's Geno Smith. According to Brooks, "scouts love his size and A+ arm talent. He is a better athlete than most expect, and he can make all of the pro throws." We are shocked by this news. Sure, Glennon has a big frame and flashes a big arm, but when pressured up the middle he lacks the mobility to buy time, which results in mistakes. Glennon did a solid job against Florida State, but that was due to a faster paced offense with many more quick routes and three step drops.
NC State senior QB Mike Glennon finished Saturday's game against Miami with 440 yards passing on 24-of-42 completions, including four touchdowns and two interceptions. Evaluators will like Glennon's downfield arm in a clean pocket, and he even flashed some nice throws on the move today, but it just is not consistent. Glennon has plenty of difficulty reading coverages in a muddled pocket, leading to poor decisions. Still, due to size and flashing arm talent, we think the senior is worth a third day pick.
NC State senior QB Mike Glennon struggled for the second straight week, completing 15-of-30 throws for 204 yards and one touchdown in Saturday's game against UConn. The Wolfpack offensive line was very porous, but Glennon did not help by holding on to three step drop throws rather than getting the ball out of his hand. He really struggles against inside pressure and fails to evade free rushers. Still, many like his arm talent and he can make some nice throws behind a firm offensive line.
SI's Tony Pauline listed NC State senior QB Mike Glennon as a "slider" after his questionable performance against Tennessee. Glennon threw for 287 yards while completing 27-of-46 attempts, including one touchdown and four interceptions. Pauline said the senior looked like a "free agent" during Friday's game after consistently locking on to receivers and incorrectly reading the defense. Because of these continued struggles, Pauline says Glennon has "several wondering if he possesses the mental make-up to start in the NFL."
NC State senior QB Mike Glennon threw for 287 yards while completing 27-of-46 attempts, including one touchdown and four interceptions. Glennon got off to a fast start, showing his prowess as a rhythm passer in a clean pocket. If given manageable space, Glennon showed accuracy and velocity. However, Tennessee continued to blitz inside and whenever the Vols got a free rusher Glennon struggled immensely. In those situations the Wolfpack quarterback either threw to his short outlet, took the sack, or slowly rolled out of the pocket and lost his placement and velocity. Because of his lack of mobility against interior pressure, Glennon could struggle if defenses can scheme free rushers.
NC State senior QB Mike Glennon is ready to show he has learned from last year's mistakes. "There were times last year I felt like I was hot and cold, but I feel like I've learned a lot from that point," Glennon said. The 2011 season was his first year as a starter after sitting behind Russell Wilson for two seasons, but Glennon possesses the natural arm talent and touch that evaluators look for. We would like to see Glennon recognize pressure presnap and show more composure in a closing pocket during his senior season.
NC State senior QB Mike Glennon is a player on the rise heading into his final season, according to NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah. Jeremiah cites Glennon's size, arm strength, and compact delivery which allows him to effortlessly drive the ball on comeback, curl, and dig routes. We would not go as far to call Glennon's release "compact", since he does tend to drop his motion, but his 6'4/225 pound frame certainly helps create torque for added velocity. Opinions drastically vary on Glennon, and he could end up as high as a top three senior quarterback or near the end of the top ten. We worry most about his effectiveness when forced to move in or out of the pocket. Glennon's evaluation hinges on this season.
Based on his "marginally accurate" arm, SI's Tony Pauline considers NC State senior QB Mike Glennon a sixth- to seventh-round prospect. The 6'4/225 pound quarterback has a big arm and "powers the ball into targets" according to Pauline, but his poor pass placement apparently affects his projection. Many consider Glennon to be an under the radar prospect, consistently drawing Matt Ryan comparisons from head coach Tom O'Brien, but Pauline obviously does not agree. Glennon threw for 3,054 yards with 31 touchdowns and 12 interceptions last season.
For quarterback Mike Glennon, footwork and other fundamentals are the priority this spring. Coach Tom O'Brien has made note of the areas Glennon must improve as the QB prepares for his second season as the Wolfpack's starter. The veteran coach also noted how much Glennon matured as the 2011 season progressed, finishing with 3,054 yards and 31 TDs. A year ago at this time Glennon was preparing to take over for Russell Wilson, who transferred to Wisconsin.
Mike Glennon threw for 264 yards and 3 TDs to lead North Carolina State to a 31-24 win over Louisville in the Belk Bowl. Glennon threw each of his touchdown passes in the opening half, after which the Wolfpack led 21-10. Glennon, who took over for Russell Wilson, finished the season with 3,054 yards passing and 31 TDs.
North Carolina State's Mike Glennon threw 5 TD passes and ran for a sixth score in a 56-41 comeback victory over visiting Maryland. Trailing 41-14 with less than six minutes remaining in the third quarter, Glennon and the Wolfpack rattled off 42 unanswered points. Glennon threw 3 TD passes and ran for a fourth score during that titanic spurt, which included 35 fourth-quarter points. Glennon's line on the day was 36-of-55 for 306 yards and 5/1. Glennon has thrown 8 of his 28 TD passes in the past two weeks.
Quarterback Mike Glennon threw three touchdowns in NC State's 37-13 upset of No. 7 Clemson. The senior went 19-for-29 on the day and threw touchdown passes of 7, 11, and 43 yards in the win in Raleigh. Glennon went over the 2,000 yard mark in Saturday
s win, and now has 20 touchdowns to 10 interceptions for the Wolfpack this season.
North Carolina State receiver T.J. Graham knows he must step it up against visiting North Carolina on Saturday. Things have gone downhill in a hurry. In Weeks 2-4, Graham was a combined 18-421-4. Since then, he sat out one half because he couldn't make it to class and he has hardly been schooling opposing DBs with just 9-103-0 in the last 3.5 games. Thanks to Graham's strong start, he has career highs for receptions (28) and yards (531), but that means little of late. QB Mike Glennon and the Wolfpack need the Graham of September to show up against their chief rival.
Running back Curtis Underwood is among injured players that could return for North Carolina State against Central Michigan. After posting 36-228-6.3-1 in the Wolfpack's first three games, Underwood was cut down with a knee injury in Week 4 against Cincy that forced him to miss last week's scoring fest with Georgia Tech. He is listed No. 2 behind James Washington for Saturday's game against the Chippewas. A ground game that ranks 101st welcomes his return - along with possibly fullback Taylor Gentry.
After giving up seven sacks in last night's 44-14 loss to Cincinnati, N.C. State has allowed a total of 15 sacks in four games, which currently leads the ACC. FSU was the only team that had allowed more (10) after three games. While Glennon shows flashes of big play ability, the team's pass protection has yet to put together any type of consistency. Playing in the shadow of Russell Wilson, his 1079 yards are first among ACC competitors and third nationally.
Cast of pass catchers could be a moving target for North Carolina State junior quarterback Mike Glennon, who is entering his first season as a starter. There does not appear to be one primary target for Glennon among the receivers. Rather, there are ample possibilities when it comes to the Wolfpack's pass catchers. Options abound between the receivers and running backs as well as tight end George Bryan, whose 35 receptions last season is tops among returning players. Glennon attempted 52 passes (326 yards) while serving as a backup to Russell Wilson the past two years.
When asked for his thoughts on Russell Wilson heading to Auburn, head coach Gene Chizik said, "When it comes to the recruiting part of it, my job as the head coach at Auburn is to make sure we're going to develop our roster the best way we see fit to help Auburn win. So as we go down the recruiting road, whoever gives us that opportunity to win at Auburn -- whether it's a junior college transfer or high school (player) or whoever we feel fits the bill to continuously improve Auburn's football team to give us a chance to compete for a championship -- then obviously that's my job and I'm for it." The last three words really let us know what Chizik thinks of Wilson and his possible transfer to Auburn.ÿ If Wilson does head to The Plains and beats out Barrett Trotter and Clint Moseley, he could put the Tigers in a position to overcome the many losses to graduation.
Yesterday it was reported that quarterback Russell Wilson stopped in to visit Auburn Monday night and Tuesday on his day off from Asheville Tourists minor league baseball club. But the battle for his services this fall is far from over. Wisconsin is still in the mix and hopes to have Wilson on campus in June. There still are some major hurdles for Wilson to overcome. As we noted earlier, his minor league baseball season doesn't come to an end until Sept. 5. And even if he is given permission to leave the team early, he'll only have a month of fall camp to learn a new offense and get back into football shape.
Ex-North Carolina State QB Russell Wilson visited Auburn's campus Tuesday. Wilson is searching for a new football home after being released from NC State due to his baseball career. He's graduated and will be eligible in 2011, which is when Auburn would need him after losing Cam Newton. Wilson's dual-threat skill set makes him an excellent fit for Gus Malzahn's spread attack, though it's important to remember how an SEC move turned out for similarly-talented Jeremiah Masoli. Auburn will eventually need to develop a passer from the ground up, but currently appears to be the frontrunner for Wilson, even if he's another stopgap.
Quarterback Russell Wilson has reportedly been in contact with the Wisconsin Badgers, according to the Journal Sentinel. Other teams that have been mentioned as possible destinations include Ole Miss, Auburn, Texas, Florida and South Carolina. Wilson cannot transfer to an ACC school. Wilson's minor league baseball season doesn't end until Sept. 5. But if he plans on playing football this fall, he'll need to cut the season short so he can attend a team's August camp. Which probably won't go over too well with the Colorado Rockies organization. Wilson is only batting .226 with theÿAsheville (N.C.) Tourists through 18 games, which could be a major reason for his renewed desire to return to the gridiron.
North Carolina State is moving on from the Russell Wilson era, no questions asked according to head coach Tom O'Brien. Mike Glennon will be the 'Pack's starter this fall. When asked if there was a contingency plan if Wilson returns to the gridiron, O'Brien offered, "No, I don't have anything to do with Russell, he's on the Colorado Rockies roster, they control everything. We've moved on without Russell and the contingency plan if he comes back is that he'll be the back-up." Yikes.
North Carolina State head coach Tom O'Brien says the Wolfpack are moving on this spring without quarterbackÿRussell Wilson. "Our plans are he's not coming back," O'Brien said. "He'll be a baseball player. We have to move forward with Glennon. We've planned for this day and Michael's ready to do it."ÿ O'Brien indicates the loss of N.C.ÿState's top three wide receivers makes it crucial for their QB to participate in spring drills. ÿInterestingly, the Raleigh News and Observer points out Wilson has graduated, and with one season of eligibility remaining, he could transfer and play immediately.ÿ Hmm.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson did not enter the 2011 NFLÿDraft, leaving the door open a crack that he could return for the Wolfpack. Don't get your hopes up just yet Wolfpack fans; Wilson's plan all along has been to attend the Colorado Rockies camp and begin his pro baseball career.
West Virginia cornerback Brandon Hogan will miss Dec. 28 Champs Sports Bowl due to a torn ACL in his left knee. This is a tough blow for a Mountaneer defense that has played extremely well down the stretch and will be facing one of the top quarterbacks in the country in North Carolina State's Russell Wilson.
North Carolina State kicker Josh Czajkowski was expected to miss the rest of the season with a hamstring injury, but was back banging balls through the uprights last week against North Carolina. “He even said he’s kicking the ball better, he feels better, there’s much better rhythm than what he’s (been) doing," coach Tom O'Brien said. "Go figure.” Czajkowski has been a solid kicker this year making 16-of-20 field goals this season. He should be good this week against Maryland.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson was just 15 of 29 for 163 yards against rival North Carolina. He had two touchdowns, and was intercepted once. Wilson added 26 yards on the ground, but these are pretty pedestrian numbers for a stud who may have cost a lot of owners a championship this weekend.
North Carolina State wide receiver Owen Spencer had seven catches for 138 yards and a touchdown against Wake Forest. These are numbers we expected all season, and they simply have been few and too far in between. Spencer only has two scores, and two 100 yard games this season.
N.C. State quarterback Russell Wilson threw for 300 yards and two scores, while adding 17 yards and two more scores on the ground. He was picked off again, which makes 12 on the year and at least one in seven straight. That's not good, but you can take it with this consistent production.
North Carolina State kicker Josh Czajkowski is out for the year with a hamstring injury. Be sure to scratch Czajkowski from your starting lineup. Chris Hawthorne and junior J. Elis Flint will take over the placekicking duties.
North Carolina quarterback Russell Wilson addressed the question about whether he will return for another year with the Wolfpack: "I'm not sure yet [about 2011]," Wilson said. "I'm focused on Wake Forest. I'll follow what the Lord takes me to, wherever that is. If it's here, awesome. If it's somewhere else, awesome." Wilson has plenty of options at his disposal. He could return for another year with the Wolfpack, join the Colorado Rockies or enter the 2011 NFL Draft. The latter seems the least likely, but Wilson will get some looks at the next level.
North Carolina State tight end George Bryan scored his third touchdown on the season last night against Florida State, finishing with just two grabs and ten yards. Bryan is up to 22-250-3 on the year, which seems a little below where I would have pegged him. But he certainly has a chance to match last season's 40-422-6 totals, and is a solid TE option for the remainder of the year.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson threw for just 178 yards with a touchdown and an interception against Florida State. He ran 17 times for 69 yards and three scores. Wilson had gone over 300 yards passing in five straight, but made up for it with the rushing touchdowns. The interceptions are a little concerning, as he has ten already this season after throwing just 12 in the previous two years combined, but I'm just nit picking. Wilson is a stud.
North Carolina State wide receiver Owen Spencer grabbed six passes for 98 yards in a loss to East Carolina. Spencer has been pretty solid this year, grabbing at least four passes in all but one game this season. He's only scored once, but as often as the 'Pack throw it, you have to think he'll finish with a few more. He's a solid WR3/WR4 option nationally.
North Carolina State Russell Wilson had an uncharacteristic three interceptions in an overtime loss to East Carolina. He finished with 322 yards and a touchdown. Certainly not the numbers owners were expecting as the expected shootout didn't fully materialize. Wilson gets next Saturday off before the 'Noles come to town. His streak of five straight 300+ passing yard games will be challenged.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson threw for 328 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in a win over Boston College. Pretty much in line with what you expect. Wilson has topped 300 yards and thrown at least three touchdowns in all but one game this season, and should post equally large numbers again next week against the Pirates of ECU.
North Carolina State wide receivers Jarvis Williams and Owen Spencer both found their way into the endzone against Boston College, while finishing with 65 and 70 yards respectively. That's touchdowns in three straight for Williams, who snagged 11 scores last season. Spencer was overdue for a touchdown, and despite the 'Pack throwing to ten different players yesterday, the rotation has shortened tremendously as conference play has opened. They'll head out of conference next week and play ECU, but both Spencer and Williams are terrific options.
North Carolina State wide receivers Owen Spencer and Jarvis Williams both topped the century mark Saturday against Virginia Tech. Spencer led the way with six grabs for 145 yards, while Williams snagged four for 103 yards and a touchdown. Amazing what happens when the Wolfpack shorten their receiver rotation. Seven total players caught balls, but only one other wide receiver (Jay Smith) got in on the act. We can only hope Tom O'Brien doesn't send 13 different players to catch passes next week.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson threw for 362 yards and three touchdowns against Virginia Tech, but was intercepted three times. Wilson continues to be a stud, and has been over 300 yards in four of the 'Packs' five games this season. This is four interceptions over the last two however, and for a guy who only had tossed 12 picks in his career, it's a little concerning. He'll look to continue his success against Boston College next time out.
North Carolina State wide receiver Jarvis Williams, who led the ACC with 11 touchdown receptions last season, caught his first score of 2010 to go along with 46 yards on five grabs. Williams also recovered a blocked punt for a touchdown, so you might be getting a few more points than anticipated. Williams is a solid bye week plug in for ACC leaguers, but is entirely too streaky to be started anywhere else.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson threw for 368 yards and three touchdowns against Georgia Tech. He also ran for 16 yards and another score. Wilson was intercepted for the first time this season, but it's safe to say he's rolling. Unfortunately for Wolfpack receivers, Wilson continues to spread the ball around, as 11 players caught passes. The surprising 4-0 Wolfpack host Virginia Tech next.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson, coming off a 10 of 30 performance at UCF, found his magic again Thursday against Cincinnati, finishing with 333 yards and three touchdowns. Wilson spread the ball around a little too much for fantasy owners as 11 different players caught passes. The scores went to Jay Smith (his first career TD), FB Taylor Gentry, and RB Curtis Underwood. Tough to fathom Wilson and N.C. State not producing top fantasy wideouts, so lets hope they start shrinking the rotation as conference play opens.
N.C. State quarterback Russell Wilson struggled to a a 10-of-30 evening, throwing for 105 yards and a score. He ran 13 times for 35 yards in what we'd have to assume will be his worst performance of the season. He'll bounce back with authority in a probable shootout Thursday against Cincinnati.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson showed no rust tonight while throwing for 306 yards and four touchdowns in a blowout of Western Carolina. Tonight's surprise target was T.J. Graham, who finished with 96 yards and two touchdowns on six catches. Wilson is a top flight QB, and will battle Florida State's Christian Ponder for the honor of top ACC signal caller this fall.
Curtis Underwood and James Washington, two of N.C. State's leading competitors for the starting running back job, missed practice Monday with undisclosed injuries. Head coach Tom O'Brien would not clarify the injuries as they don't appear serious enough to miss the season opener. Still, this is a ground attack that mustered just 92 yards on 55 carries in their first scrimmage, and missing key pieces to an already suspect backfield isn't going to help. Stay away from the Pack rushers until someone steps forward.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson played his last minor league game of the season Friday night, and has returned to Raleigh as the 'Pack open practice August 3rd. Wilson hit just .230 in 122 at bats, and we can safely put baseball in the background for 2010. Next year, we may not be as fortunate, but Wilson is firmly entrenched atop ACC quarterback rankings, and Mike Glennon will continue to wait.
Though charges have not been dismissed, North Carolina State tight end George Bryan will be with the team when they open practice Tuesday, August 3rd. Interesting that Bryan's case is still pending, but none of those involved in the April marry jane incident will face suspension this fall. Bryan is a top option at TE, and playing a full slate of games certainly helps. Draft him with confidence.
Former North Carolina State wide receiver Donald Bowens was not accepted to grad school at South Florida, and he'll now be heading to North Alabama to play his final season of eligibility. Bowens would have added depth to a relatively thin receiving corps.
Though financial terms were not disclosed, North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson has officially signed with the Colorado Rockies. Some interesting quotes from Wilson in the linked story, including “I think I’m probably going to go back and play football and play baseball this summer and get out there as early as I can for the Rockies and do the best I can.” "I think" and "probably" aren't exactly ringing endorsements for a return to the gridiron. At this point, Wilson owners shouldn't be too concerned, but your heart might start beating a bit quicker should Wilson swing well in short season baseball. Mike Glennon is a terrific keeper option, and is rapidly becoming a must draft handcuff if you own Wilson.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson says he will play for the Colorado Rockies this summer, but will also be under center for the Wolfpack this fall. While Wilson will return for 2010, his flirtation with baseball puts his return in 2011 in jeopardy.
North Carolina State quarterback/outfielder Russell Wilson was taken by the Colorado Rockies in the fourth round of the 2010 Major League Baseball First-Year Players Draft. The Rockies are doing their best to make life miserable for college football fans by taking both Clemson's Kyle Parker in the first round and now Wilson. Wilson won't see quite the payday as Parker, however, making it likely that he returns to play football.
North Carolina State tight end George Bryan, an all-conference performer in 2009, was charged early Saturday morning with "maintaining a dwelling for use of controlled substances." DTs Markus Kuhn and J.R. Sweezy and OT Jake Vermiglio were also cited for the above mentioned offense along with posession charges. Bryan is the big name here as he hauled in 40 balls for 422 yards and six touchdowns last year. While the charges are misdemeanors, some disciplinary action should be expected. Not the way to wrap up spring practice in Raleigh.
N.C. State quarterbacks Mike Glennon and Daniel Imhoff combined for 644 yards passing and six touchdowns in the Wolfpack's spring game. Four wide receivers had 97 yards or more, led by Owen Spencer's 165 yards on four grabs. Russell Wilson figures to return to lead the Pack offense, and with question marks at running back, expect Spencer to be a solid option all season.
North Carolina State head coach, Tom O'Brien, says that "Russell (Wilson) called to assure me that he wanted to come back next season. I’m not sure where everyone got the notion that he wasn’t returning". We all know what Russell Wilson returning would do not only for the Wolfpack but for fantasy owners. Wilson is a top level quarterback who should enjoy a similar season to his 3,027 yard, 31-touchdown season of 2009.
When discussing the return status of quarterback Russell Wilson, North Carolina State head coach Tom O'Brien said "Write it down: he's coming back". This is great news for the Wolfpack and fantasy owners alike if true. But we won't know for sure until after the Major League Baseball rookie draft in June.
North Carolina State quarterback Mike Glennon had a stellar scrimmage going 17 of 28 passes for 170 yards and three touchdowns. This is good news for the Wolfpack especially if incumbent quarterback Russell Wilson ends up playing professional baseball.
Former North Carolina State wide receiver Donald Bowens has graduated, and he's looking to transfer and spend his final year of eligibility catching footballs for South Florida. Bowens is a nice wide receiver who would certainly help the Bulls; should his transfer go through, he'll likely be a fantasy factor in Big East leagues.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson will skip spring football practice to play for the Wolfpack baseball team. Wilson's absence will give Mike Glennon more reps, but Wilson will still be the starter this fall.
North Carolina State running back Toney Baker will enter the 2010 NFL Draft. "It was a tough decision because I have loved my time at N.C. State and have really enjoyed playing for Coach (Tom) O'Brien," he said in a released statement. "But after weighing all my options, I think this is the right move for me at this time in my life." Baker showed very good upside early on in his career, but missed most of the 2007 and all of the 2008 season due to knee injuries. Baker was eligible for a medical redshirt.
North Carolina State running back Toney Baker has decided to enter the NFL Draft rather than pursue a 6th year of eligibility. Baker, whose knees made him no stranger to the operating room while at N.C. State, will look to stay healthy and make an impact in the NFL. The Wolfpack will lose a great majority of their carries and ground yards, thus spring ball will be pivotal towards determing next season's starting back.
North Carolina State quarterback Russell Wilson rounded out the season for the Wolfpack by defeating rival UNC with a 20-of-27, 259 yard, four touchdown performance. Wilson has scored a touchdown in every game but one this season, and scored multiple touchdowns in all but two. This Wolfpack offense will likely hinge on his playmaking ability again in 2010.
ESPN.com reports that North Carolina state has applied for an additional year of eligibility for running back Toney Baker, and coach Tom O'Brien is feeling pretty darn good that his request shall be granted. Good for Baker if he can get a sixth year on campus. My dad made me leave before I could hit a sixth year, and it took years of therapy to forgive him.
NC State quarterback Russell Wilson completed 25-of-38 passes for 343 yards and three touchdowns while adding 11 yards rushing and a score to keep the Wolfpack from getting stuck on the bottom of the ACC Atlantic pile. Wilson did set a career-high mark of three interceptions in this game, and this is his fifth consecutive game with an interception after previously going more than a year without a pick. This could be a slight cause for concern for Wilson owners, but he's still putting touchdowns in the stat column, so don't worry too much.
NC State quarterback Russell Wilson left it all on the field in a shootout loss to Florida State completing 20-of-30 passes for 349 yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions. Wilson also added 34 yards rushing. Another potential shootout with Maryland is up next, and so too could be some more Russell Wilson fantasy gold.
Southern Miss wide receiver DeAndre Brown is starting to regain his star studded form after being slowed by recovery from a broken fibula earlier in the year. "I think he's just now getting close to getting back," coach Larry Fedora said. The timing couldn't be better for fantasy owners looking to make a playoff run. With Tulane, Houston, Marshall, Tulsa and East Carolina left to go, Brown should be a mainstay in your lineup.
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons were able to end the record maintained by NC State quarterback Russell Wilson for consecutive passes without an interception by picking off Wilson twice tonight. Wilson still had a great fantasy outing with 275 yards passing, two touchdowns, and two interceptions while adding 41 yards rushing and a score. No cause for concern here with Wilson as he hasn't thrown an interception in over a year. Russell Wilson and the Wolfpack have a tasty matchup waiting next week in lowly ACC foe Duke.
