Serious question, is there a coach in the NFL that doesn't prefer tall, drop back QBs? Don't you think Carroll probably preferred a tall, drop back passer when he turned in the card to draft Russell Wilson? Seems like these are universal qualities that all coaches prefer and unless there is some indication that O'Brien literally takes guys off the board unless they possess them, not sure this tells us much.
