From the Mouth of Sauron himself.   🤣


If there were a book about being a football agent, Drew Rosenhaus read a few passages word for word today.

Speaking to the media, Rosenhaus said all the right things about new client Terrelle Pryor and his supplemental draft chances.

Rosenhaus lauded Pryor's character, pimped his work ethic, fawned over his physical skills and overinflated his client's value.

In Rosenhaus' estimation, a team will use a first-round pick on Pryor. In an effort to back his client, Rosenhaus even bashed 2011 NFL Draft top pick Cam Newton to a degree.

"This league needs quarterbacks," Rosenhaus said. "Are you kidding me? Middle round for this guy? You talk about Cam Newton being the first pick of the draft and he deserves it? Let me tell you what, I'll make all the comparisons all day long: [Pryor] is 31-4 at Ohio State. He has 8,000 total yards in three years. He holds 59 touchdowns -- a record at Ohio State. This is Big 10 football that he has dominated."

Quick, someone look up the random stats of Texas Tech quarterbacks. Send them to Rosenhaus. You may get a finder's fee.

During Rosenhaus' briefing to the media, he didn't mention or even allude to Pryor switching positions in the NFL. In fact, just the opposite.

"The reason that I signed him as a player, despite all of the prognostications and whatnot, is that I'm a firm believer after 25 years of experience that Terrelle Pryor will be a great -- not a good quarterback -- a great quarterback in the National Football League. That he's going to be a star."

At least one NFL player agrees with him. Shockingly, it's fellow Rosenhaus client Chad Ochocinco. Just assume Ocho knows English and correct what you need to from the following:


media said @tpeezy2 isn't NFL type QB,after running routes n seeing great timing n arm strength I beg to differ.



With the right coaching after what I saw today with my own eyes he can be a great QB.



Unlike most players, it's clear Ocho is getting some coaching this offseason. It just happens to be from his agent.

Pryor will succeed in the NFL if he sits behind a veteran quarterback for a few years and learns that the NFL is not the Big Ten (something Rosenhaus is failing to see). The whole Pryor thing annoys me and the fact that Rosenhaus is his agent annoys me even more. This guy talks out of his ass 24/7.

I can see a team like Miami or Arizona gunning for a guy like Pryor. He does have the tools to be a successful quarterback, just not right away. And no, I don't think going to Miami or Arizona will help him develop into a good quarterback.

Seems legit. Don't know how Rosenhaus could benefit from Pryor being a first rounder.

I've never been impressed with Pryor throughout his college career. With all the hype the media spins about him, you'd think he's the second coming.

Anyway, never saw him as an elite QB in the NFL.. Which means not 1st round material.

Oh, quick fun fact.. Tyrelle Pryor was the number 1 QB in his recruiting class out of high school. The number 2 QB in the same class? MarQueis Grey of the Minnesota Golden Gophers.

Maybe the comment was more so said to try and make his client relevant?

I don't think he has enough tools to succeed as a pro QB. He could go back in time and learn from Bill Walsh and I still think he'd struggle if he doesn't change positions first.

His pocket awareness is bad. He doesn't anticipate pressure. His accuracy is bad. He doesn't spin the ball well and it certainly doesn't explode off his release.

Honestly, there is a better chance humans begin to colonize Mars this summer than there is Terrelle Pryor going in the first round.
