Kyle Wright at the Combine

Much has been said about Wright's failures here in Miami. However, he never quit on this team or himself. He might not have performed up to our standards, but the kid is tough and deserves a chance in the pros. My guess is that his elite physical tools will get him drafted in the 7th round, but his resume doesn't allow for him to have any shot at Day 1.

At the combine, Wright is one of the three "throwing QBs" that stay an additional 2 days and are responsible for all the mundane activities that other QBs aren't forced to do. Visit NFL.com and read his combine diaries to get a feel for what Kyle is doing in Indy and how he feels about his chances against the other guys.

Good luck to Kyle Wright. He might not have been all that at UM, but I think a great deal of that blame can get passed around. He has excellent natural talent, and came to UM as the top-rated QB in the country.

Unfortunately, not even the best QB can handle 3 different OCs and an inept playcaller as HC.

A little more stability in his years at UM and he would have been a fine QB.
