The Leading Authority of the NFL Draft

1.27.09 – MOBILE, Rhett Bomar (QB-Sam Houston State) - Just like in practice, Bomar flashed some great raw tools, and some things he needs to improve before he can be a viable NFL starting QB. Bomar's arm strength and quick, compact release were NFL ready, but his erratic accuracy reared its ugly head on short and long throws, and he gave defenders easy plays when he stared down his target. He also coughed up a fumble in his own end zone that resulted in a TD for the South. Draft Guys On Location at The Senior Bowl

1.24.09 - The twist for Bomar has been coming to the Senior Bowl and throwing passes again to Oklahoma receivers Juaquin Iglesias and Manny Johnson on the North team. Oklahoma offensive lineman Phil Loadholt is also on Bomar’s team. "The first time we saw each other it was like we never left," Johnson said. "It was like old days." Bomar and Iglesias have been working out together in Atlanta at Competitive Sports Edge. Iglesias believes the Sooners could have had success with Bomar similar to what they have had with Heisman Trophy winner Sam Bradford. "I know me and Manny talked about it, if he would have stayed I think it would have been the same thing for Oklahoma," Iglesias said. "He’s a great player, not taking anything away from Sam, because he is a great player, too, but Rhett is good." Bomar, who has the same agent (Bus Cook) as Brett Favre, said he hasn’t watched Oklahoma play since his dismissal. At the Senior Bowl, NFL teams have asked Bomar about what transpired at Oklahoma and he has welcomed the questions. He doesn’t believe he has to repair his character and thinks his past will not hinder his draft stock. The dismissal ultimately changed Bomar, who started 11 games for OU in 2005.

1.21.09 – MOBILE, Rhett Bomar(Sam Houston State) is decisively the best QB prospect here. He goes through his reads patiently, puts zip on his passes, executes play fakes and bootlegs well, and he's willing to go downfield in 7 on 7's (as opposed to the South QBs). This tells us that he's not afraid of making mistakes, instead looking to make the best possible play - exactly the kind of mindset that makes for a successful NFL QB. He did fumble a few snaps, but also threw the prettiest deep ball of the day to former teammate Juaquin Iglesias. Draft Guys On Location at The Senior Bowl

1.20.09 – MOBILE, Rhett Bomar(Sam Houston State) Rhett Bomar looks like the most NFL ready of all the Senior Bowl QBs. He is mechanically sound, and his release point is high. He had the best zip on the ball today, and he was not afraid to go down the field. Draft Guys On Location at The Senior Bowl

1.19.09 – (Senior Bowl Practice): Had the most "Live" arm of the three North QB's; Graham Harrell (Texas Tech) and Nathan Brown (Central Arkansas). He had the most velocity on his out routes and the windy conditions had little or no effect on his ball. Well-built has a sturdy frame and among this group his physical traits have a real chance to shine.

1.19.09 – MOBILE, Rhett Bomar(Sam Houston State) Rhett might have had some butterflies in his stomach to start practice because he fumbled a couple of snaps early, but by the end of the day he looked calm and collected. The angle 3 out routes that he was throwing had a little bit of wobble in them, but his deep passes were on point. He had a nice hookup on a deep hook to Brandon Gibson, and he did a good job of checking down to his TEs or RBs when the downfield throws were not there. Draft Guys On Location at The Senior Bowl

1.11.09 - Exclusive NFL Draft Journal

8.1.08: After throwing for 2,209 yards and 10 touchdowns as a junior, Bomar earned HM All-Southland honors. His numbers were lacking due to fact that Sam Houston State uses a vanilla offensive attack. Expect big numbers from Bomar this year as he can make all the throws. He does have some red flags according to NFL personnel due to some missed games with a knee injury in 2007 and some off field issues at Oklahoma before being dismissed. He enters the season with a 6th-7th round projection. If Bomar can stay clean, he certainly has the talent to be drafted in the mid-rounds. 8/1/08
