Did I just see that Cooper Rush made it to the combine and Zach got snubbed?

uhhhh.... what? I am going to assume this is solely due to physical measurable's?

Either or... I think Moton is going to be doing on-field workouts with a wave of the OL players today... not sure at what time it will be on NFL network. The early wave of OL players don't seem to include him...

Moton is about to workout.

And yes you are correct, physical attributes are what got Rush an invite.

Going into their Senior years I know Rush was much higher regarded by scouts. He also is supposed to have much better measurables. Zach is considered more a system QB.

Nothing against Cooper Rush, I wish him the best.

However, Zach was 3-1 against CMU with Cooper Rush.

Zach is a champion. Cooper is not.

Zach helped win a bowl game. Cooper did not.

Zach also had better coaching and a superior offensive system than Cooper did in college.

That said, once a MAC player graduates, then I consider them ALL Broncos. I cheer for Antonio Brown as much as I did for Greg Jennings. It is fun to see players from our league do well in the NFL.

We mentioned how physical attributes played their part, but it still doesn't seem fair.

Career Stats -
Rush: 12894 yards, 90 TDs, 55 INTs, 62% completion pct.
Terrell: 12100 yards, 96 TDs, 31 INTs, 65.5% completion pct.

Not to mention, Terrell is a winner!

By the way, Moton just ran an unofficial 5.18 on his first attempt. Pretty good for a lineman his size. Didn't know the big guy had it in him!

Good for 14th out of the 40 OL that ran a 40.

Moton has looked great in position drills. Really proud of him.

Eisen busted out the "poetry in Moton" line today. He's having a great combine.

I cracked up when Eisen dropped that line and then said... "I've been sitting that one for about an hour now.."
