Brought to you by Fantasy Knuckleheads
For the next couple of months I am going to be running a series of articles giving you a breakdown of the top 25 on my 2012 NFL Draft big board. Just last week, I compiled a list of the top 200 prospects in the draft after watching extensive videos and looking at the play of each individual.
Today’s article is going to focus on my 25th ranked prospect for April’s draft, Brandon Weeden from Oklahoma State.
Strengths
Size: Weeden is your prototypical quarterback in terms of size, standing at 6’4? and 214 pounds. He will have absolutely no issues looking over the top of the defensive front and finding throwing lanes between the hashes.
Arm Strength: He can make every single throw on the football field, including putting a tremendous amount of zip on the longer passes. Weeden will be able to throw across the field to the sidelines without much of an issue, something that a vast majority of NFL quarterbacks tend to struggle with.
