... to the Fresno Bee.
His reprieve didn’t last long. Shirley was dismissed from the team almost one month later. He was cited on suspicion of driving with a suspended license and expired tags.
I’m sorry it just makes no sense whatsoever. Nothing worse than to see another brain trust from a professional sports team talk out their ass. Bad move, bad pick. But that’s just me, guess he’ll fit right in with the Bengals.

Booty may not have amazing arm strength, but he's very accurate and a mobile quarterback. He's a definite improvement over Brooks Bollinger and will make preseason more competitive . He'll make a very good second option should the T-Jack experiment go awry. I'm digging the fact that 10 days before being drafted he stated his preference for the Vikings on ESPN.Vikes 2008 Draft Class

That’s right, John David Booty only scored a 14 on his wonderlic test , which is a sort of IQ tests that the NFL Draft uses to see if a particular QB is an idiot or not. Well, Booty is an idiot. A score of 14 means barely literate. However, Booty’s score WAS in the top 10 percent of all USC players! Congrats, JDB! Alright I made that up. Sue me.

The Vikes passed on Brian Brohm in the Second Round (Green Bay selected him), but they traded with ironically, Green Bay to move up from #150 to #137 to select John David Booty. The Vikes traded their seventh-round pick (#209) to move up. Booty is 6’3, 213 pounds from USC. Booty played in the West Coast Offense at USC and he will be a developmental quarterback.

There are still some teams that haven’t drafted a quarterback yet that need one, most notably the Bears and Panthers. Also, the Lions, Jets, Buccaneers, and Cowboys could be interested in taking one. Some might go soon after the Vikings drafted John David Booty, as some teams might start panicking. There aren’t too many left, the best probably being Andre Woodson and Eric Ainge. ...Vikings Draft USC’s John David Booty

The Vikings traded for the Packers first pick in the fifth round, the second overall of the round, and selected former USC quarterback John David Booty. Wow, pretty interesting. Booty is a pocket passer, with an accurate arm that isn’t very strong, and bad mobility. However, he proved as a Trojan that he’s a leader on the field, which teams always look for in quarterbacks.

So we're midway through the fourth round and the only quarterback drafted so far today is San Diego State's Kevin O'Connell. To the Patriots . USC's John David Booty , Kentucky's Andre Woodson and Hawaii's Colt Brennan are still on the board, which is kinda surprising given all the teams in need of quarterback help. I think Brennan's issues are more physical in nature , but Booty's and ...Just So You Know, Andre Woodson And John David Booty Are The Dumbest QBs In This Year's Draft
Posted 4/27/2008 on FanIQ Blog
Both Andre Woodson and John David Booty weren't drafted on the first day of the NFL Draft for rather obvious reasons. Woodson takes about three years to get a pass off, and Booty just really isn't a pro quarterback. But now we have another reason why they may have to wait awhile before they get drafted. Both scored a 14 on their Wonderlic test, according to Mac Mirabile, who has been ...Thoughts on offensive players
