Where are you getting this? Plenty of people questioned whether Young had the passing skills to become a NFL starting QB.

The questions as to Young's NFL passing ability are more decision making and accuracy than arm strength. I don't think anyone in the league worries he lacks the arm strength to make it as an NFL QB.
I'm probably over emphasizing his arm strength because I'm repeating myself, but I'm not analyzing VY's arm as not being able to make the NFL throws. I'm just talking about him at the professional level...

Yeah. I think his question is fair, but he's going a little overboard with it.

lol Young was agreed to be a Top 10 pick... and the 2nd best QB coming out of a draft where the QB class was supposed to be the "future of the NFL."

It doesn't matter - all I'm doing is asking a simple question. Obviously, I should have asked it in the way I edited it, probably would have been better.

But, no it doesn't matter what those TV analysts have to say at the end of the day.

lol probably because I'm responding to everyone, but I'm only really responding to people who are deviating from the real question.

Is there a reason you haven't addressed the Vick factor yet? Is it because it makes sense and therefore kills your topic?
