  Chris Landry talking Senior Bowl, NFL future quarterbacks. Landry football dot Com also
• 0:05
  want to exit Landry football. Spencer Rattler another one that's intriguing to me because
• 0:10
  you know, a couple of years ago he was projected by you know,
• 0:13
  the focuses out there and all the NFL think tanks is the number one prospect
• 0:17
  on the board. That summer he was at Oklahoma, things went south,
• 0:20
  Lincoln Riley turned to call Williams. The rest is history. But then he
• 0:23
  comes back, has a really good Senior Bowl. Now he's starting to get
• 0:28
  some buzz behind him. Does he have a future in the league, Well,
• 0:32
  same thing. He'll get a chance, and how successful he'll be,
• 0:37
  we'll see. I think a lot of it depends on where he goes,
• 0:41
  how he's developed. I think somebody like him that will be drafted outside of
• 0:46
  the first round, maybe in the right situation where he can sit and develop.
• 0:52
  See a lot of these guys, whether they make it and how well
• 0:55
  there's how successful they are is in direct correlation to the situation that they're in.
• 1:00
  What's the talent around them is their coaching stability. That's how you develop.
• 1:07
  He can kind of sit and learn a little bit, and I think
• 1:10
  he could find himself in a situation where if he he you know, is
• 1:14
  in that type situation, he may have a better chance than somebody that's thrown
• 1:17
  to the wolf, so to speak. Yeah. There. It's also one
• 1:22
  of the reasons when I and it drives me nuts when these guys that do
• 1:26
  these things, of these high school prospects, Oh yeah, he's a future
• 1:30
  first round pick. You don't know who the heck that's so far down the
• 1:33
  road. I mean, most of those guys don't even pan out in college.
• 1:38
  A lot of the physical skills, it's very easy. It's how a
• 1:42
  guy develops and how motivated is. Everybody says they're motivated, but you know,
• 1:49
  it's not what you say, it's what you do. I want to
• 1:52
  see Spencer in a better coached environment and see if he can become more proficient
• 1:59
  in being able to see the field make better decisions, because I think the
• 2:02
  inconsistency is a problem, but I think there are reasons for that beyond just
• 2:08
  his issues that he has to deal with.
