Logan Woodside pro prospects
I thought I would start this separate discussion for any current or future news about where he stands in terms of the NFL draft. He does not appear on most of the 2018 NFL pre-draft prospect lists and to to my knowledge has not been invited to any post season bowl games. I know he is working out and preparing for the combine next month. Hard to say what his chances are to be drafted but so far looks like FA signing is more likely.

RE: Logan Woodside pro prospects
I think the dreaded "level of competition" is going to be hard for NFL teams to overlook. Interestingly, I think had either of these past 2 UT teams been in the Top 25 down the stretch his stature would have improved. Would be nice to see him drafted in the late rounds but I think you're right.

That is sad. Can't believe some of then hacks on this list. Logan will be the next Kareem for the team brave enough to take a chance on him.

Only the top 8 have any argument that they might be better than Logan not saying they are all better they just have an argument the rest can't even argue that poor scouting job by someone.
Wish I was that poor at my job and could keep it.

Could the Browns’ QBs of the last several years be any better?

I don’t think so. I wish Logan the best and I hope he surprises a lot of people but I think he is a long shot to make a roster right now. Just because you put up big numbers in college does not guarantee you’ll make an NFL roster. I think Logan’s arm strength, accuracy and decision making have to improve immensely for him to have a shot at a roster.

RE: Logan Woodside pro prospects
He was probably rated higher at the end of last year than the end of this year. I would say the bowl game hurt him a lot. Having a big (make that HUGE) Pro Day as someone else mentioned is probably his only path to getting drafted.

RE: Logan Woodside pro prospects
Logan is on the roster for the NFLPA game, but yeah he is getting absolutely no respect which is really sad. He is better than a lot of the QBs that are now getting hyped. Tanner Lee? Come on.
The NFL scouts don't really care about level of competition. He's got the same "his arm isn't strong enough" knock like so many. I don't know how many strong arm QBs completely flopped in the NFL. Everyone seems to recognize though that he has one of the highest football IQs of any of his competitors and he is a winner. For that reason, even though it is likely won't get drafted, I think there is an outside shot that a solid team with a good veteran QB that they don't need to replace soon will take a shot at him with the idea that he can study under a vet for a few years.

I think he will be invited somewhere. Perhaps the CFL could be a path to success, a la Chuck Ealey.

RE: Logan Woodside pro prospects
Logan has been invited to the NFL Combine as well as the above mentioned post season bowl game. His final game with the Rockets certainly didn't improve his chances whatsoever (my goodness what a horrible time to play your worst game ever as a Rocket), but he will have prime opportunities in the upcoming months to impress.

Agree, level of competition is talked about more by media pundits. Good NFL scouts know how to evaluate individual talent regardless of what team they play on. If level of competition mattered, guys like Carson Wentz, Eric Fisher, Khalil Mack ect., would not have been drafted so high in the first round. There is enough proven and even star talent in the NFL from the MAC and other G5 schools that an NFL scout would have to be idiot not to recognzie that level of competition does not play any factor in whether or not a kid play on then next level.

He was far from the only Rocket to have a terrible game.

QB’s get to much credit for wins, and to much blame for losses. Look to offensive and defensive lines for the cause of our losses.

Didnt read all the posts on here, but my take, is that Logan will get a shot. May or may not get drafted, but he will sign somewhere and get a shot in the league.

Good see him getting a shot with a post season all star bowl, but of course will be at the combine, and have a pro day here at UT. Always possible those cause him to appear or move up on draft boards, and once teams getting into late rounds anything could happen and then FA is also a very likely option to at least get him into a teams off season and training camps. History of MAC MVPs in recent years, including QBs, has not been too good (since Ben R) so he has plenty going against him, but good skills, attitude and hard work, preparation and leadership (all his strengthens) could take him a long way onto a NFL roster for at least a shot. Who knows, but Bruce G sure took advantage of every opportunity and was in the league for decade.

RE: Logan Woodside pro prospects
Logan was a very good QB and the NFL will find you even if you are DIII. He has his shot with the bowl and the Combine. Let's hope his personal talents and QB skills get him the shot he deserves. Certainly a better risk than many QB's out there this year. Good luck Logan.
PS - Chuck Ealy had a very good career in the CFL...LW does not have the mobility that Chuck did.
