Just said this in the week 4 thread. It is at the point now where I am wondering how many second stringers there are out there that are better than Crapkins. He has the pedigree from OSU. Has the strong arm. Looks physically gifted. But he is fools gold.

I think he's more accurate than Haskins but overall arm talent isn't close.

No idea what people mean when they complement Haskins arm talent. If you can't throw the football where it's supposed to go you don't have arm talent.

Agree. Jeff George is another WFT QB who had lots of arm talent.

Are you old enough to remember Jay Schroeder? He had elite arm talent, had great wr's and wasn't accurate enough to keep the job.

Point is accuracy is much more important than arm talent. Rypien threw some balls I have yet to see DH make.
