And a lack of good protection.

Nearly every week the team on the opposite side has better talent than his team.

Vanderbilt has not been, and is not a football power.

We all know a lack of time alters a QB's abilities to execute perfectly, this kid carries this team and makes it competitive with the big schools.

There it is, nail on the head CK. This is why IMO Cutler will have an immediate advantage over Leinart in the first year. The speed of the game overwhelms most rookie qbs, but with Cutler facing constant pressure he'll be better prepared.

We've seen this with K.Warner. When he was in GB's camp the coaches felt he was JAG - just another guy. He plays in the ultra fast-paced Arena League and then everything slows down for him in the NFL.

I happen to think along the same lines. He might be a 2nd pick now, but I think he does the same thing Ronnie did last year.

Ronnie was originally projected at this time of year to be a late 1st, early 2nd round pick and he might end up being the best RB in the draft. I think Cutler is the same thing.
