Pat White

As the draft draws closer some players are sure to be very polarizing. Pat White may be the most polarizing of them all.

I've said all along I'd like to see Pat White be given the opportunity to play QB. After a Senior Bowl MVP performance, I think its almost assured that he will.

He's shorter than I expected, but at 6', left handed, with legs he'll be compared to Mike Vick.

I think Vick had a stronger arm, but White has more touch.

I think that White can and will be an all around better passer, especially because he's going to be coming in as a relatively inexpensive backup, and be able to hold a clipboard and learn an offense for a season or two without pressure to produce, pressure aided by an enormous rookie contract or extension, like Vick got.

Pat White will have a deeper drop back which is dangerous in the NFL because it gives speed rushers a better angle to the QB. In order to do well his footwork working back towards the line of scrimage has to be mastered.
