Why do you feel sorry? Because he's just not that good, and teams don't want him? Or is it because no one showed?

That sucks. Kind of a slap in the face. Had I know this, I would have shown up in a suite and a Cowboys hat, lol.

cuz no one showed....now here's my question for you.....do you even watch college football??? "he's just not that good"???
here are the Top 3 Draft prospects at the QB position:

Matthew Stafford
Mark Sanchez
Josh Freeman

Nate Davis threw for more yards then any of the 3.....threw more TD's then 2 of the 3 (Sanchez topped Davis' 26 with 34)......and threw fewer INT's then Stafford and Sanchez (Freeman and Davis both threw 8).

That sucks, but the blame goes around to his family and his coaches. The coach should have known he wouldn't get much interest and encouraged him to stay in school.

Damn, he should still get drafted though. i think. :oops:

maybe.....maybe not......I never thought he was a top draft prospect.....but he's got comparable stats to the top 3 in the draft....you'd figure someone would take a look at him.......but it is a smaller school and teams probably figured they'd be wasting money to go and see 1 guy workout who's going to be a 2nd day pick if not and undrafted FA......sleeper watch?

Not too hard to figure out if you watch football

I had thought that right after the season he was considered the 4th best QB and was being looked at in the 2nd or 3rd round. Outside of what they mention in the article I hadn't hear anything else that would cause him to plummet. I've read write ups about tons of colleges much smaller than Ball State and I've never heard anything about nobody showing up.

I do not think he is a top prospect, but I figured he would be a 4-5 round guy especially when ESPN said he could be a high 3 when he came out. It could be that some teams were not impressed at the combine or something else like other college teams having pro days that day

Strange deal, thought he was considered pretty high. I think a team like Indy should draft him or a lower QB, give him a few years to sit and learn behind Peyton. I bet he gets drafted

sitting and learning from a great QB has it's benefits.... look what happened to Matt Cassel......I'm sure he'll get drafted by a team that will try and develop him into a great QB.....he's got the potential IMO.

He played for division 2 basically...and he can barely hold onto a college ball, he fumbled like 2 times in a few game by just being careless with the ball.
