Default Why do you think we let Mallett throw at the Arkansas Pro Day?

Seems odd to me that BB would want him to do that. Not an injury risk or anything. He gets enough practice with us doesn't he? But, he's surely not trying to get Mallett's input on some of his former wr's. Who are good prospects such as; Joe Adams, Jarius Wright and Greg Childs. Did he want to showcase Mallett to other teams in case he wants to deal him? I'm probably reading too much into it. Just struck me as odd.

Why would he possibly not want him to?

Could they even stop him if they wanted to?

Injury risk is minimal. But, Arkansas has a elite qb prospect for next year. Tyler Wilson. Would think they let him throw. I never heard of any of our other qb's doing this.

Maybe because Arkansas/the receivers asked Mallett to throw for them at the pro day?

IIRC, I believe that Sanchez went back to USC last yr or the yr before to throw to their pro day WR's.

Why would they ask him to do that?

To prove to the scouts that they could catch anything, even less than perfect passes, especially less than perfect passes!!!

To see if the receivers can adjust to poorly thrown balls of course.

Guy on a different board mentioned to me that current players aren't allowed to do positional drills with scouts on the field. Sounds like a favor to their wr corps in order to help make them look good.
