Greg McElroy: "Josh Dobbs has quieted alot of naysayers this week at the senior bowl"

I'm probably 1 of the only people that hopes for Dobbs to use his other set of gifts and not pursue the NFL.

He is rare in that he is gifted in ways most star players are not. Ii would like to see him pursue NFL then another career using these gifts. 10 years in the league and out in the prime of his life with many years to pursue engineering, living in space, building space shuttles, or whatever he wants :)
 
I love how guys in the NFL are made into superheroes yet when they were at this same stage, they had the same questions about them that Dobbs has.

It's gonna be funny to read all the walking back that will happen about Dobbs once he becomes a star in the NFL.

you gonna walk back your comment from September?:p:):hi:
 
I doubt there's many rocket scientists working after getting their brains knocked loose in their heads and suffering CTE damage.

I hope Dobbs pursues science instead of pro football.

Don't know about rocket scientist, but Alan Page and Tim Irwin became federal judge which I think requires some brains. Then there's Patrick Kerney who got his MBA at Columbia after a decade of NFL. Jack Kemp was a candidate for V.P
John Frank (played less than 10 years in NFL but still a lot of football and in a time with less safety measures) became a doctor.

Andy Kozar played college football in a time that saw players play both ways, with not much padding or head protection. He did ok

Again, not NASA scientists but prof that a football career doesn't make him having a career in science a non-option. Also, in order for him to have head injuries, they gotta tackle him, which won't happen much:)
 
Dobbs will likely be a backup and therefore won't have to worry too much about it messing up his future career. I do think he could provide more benefit as a scientist, but there's no harm in taking the chance of a lifetime to be an NFL player and delay that a few (or many) years.
 
Cmon guys we all know Dobbs has the talent. He'a gonna do fine. and hell most people would be lucky to be backups in the league.
