In this order:
1A) Blackman
1B) Colombi
3) Telfort
4) Holm
5) Allen
And if Colombi growing 3 inches is true, I'll take him as #1 over Blackman. If D$ wants to drop the Flacco comparison for Blackman - I'll tell you what I see in Colombi...right-handed version of old school Steve Young. He makes reads rather quickly, and is decisive on his throws. I like how he moves in the pocket, and then extends the play or scrambles if he needs to. He looks like he's tough as **** to sack, just a slippery runner. I think some added height will change Colombi's leverage on the football, and you'll see some more zip and his throwing motion improve as a result. I love how he moves his feet and uses his pump fakes...that tells me he knows the play, how to read defenses, and how to make a good decision. He's moving the coverage with his feet, pumps, and his eyes to throw the ball where he wants to throw it. I love the command and presence he has...it's special. He looks like one of those guys some would describe as a "gamer"...seems gritty and not afraid to do what it takes to get the job done.
Blackman has a truly gifted arm, but I didn't really see him stepping into any throws. A good QB coach will fix his feet, and then it will be even more fun to watch him throw it all over the field. I also like the way that Blackman shapes his throws. He's more accurate than any of the QB's on that list.
