Boeckman works out for Bengals!

Todd worked out for the club Thursday with "Pac Man" Jones. Boeckman making the throws. Boeckman had been with the Bengals last spring but he, along with former Titans and Cowboys cornerback Pacman Jones, were apparently not offered a contract after the workout.

There hasn't been an offer made yet. Hopefully the Bengals will take advantage of this great opportunity.

Boeckman Moves Up to #3 QB!

I just found out today that Todd is the #3 QB. Here's the article if you would like to read it. It's basically the same thing I posted Wednesday. But I'll post it anyways.

The Jaguars have released 25-year old QB Paul Smith. Smith played in 2 pre-season games for the Jaguars completing 8 of 15 passes (53.3%) for 87 yards with 0 TD passes and 2 interceptions. He also carried the ball 1 time for 3 yards. Undrafted rookie Todd Boeckman from the Ohio State Buckeyes moves up to the #3 job for the Jaguars. Todd Boeckman lost his starting job at Ohio State last season but he was very effective two years ago for them. Last season Boeckman completed 57 of 93 passes (61.3%) for 620 yards with 5 TD passes and 2 interceptions (130.7 QB Rating). He completed 255 of 402 passes (63.4%) for 3,085 yards with 31 TD passes and 16 interceptions in his four years at Ohio State. He should be able to handle holding a clipboard for the Jags this season.

Boeckman still has NFL hopes

I came across this article today. It's from the Columbus Dispatch, enjoy!


--Boeckman still has NFL hopes--

Todd Boeckman can't remember the last time he wasn't in training camp this time of year.


"It's probably been 10 years," the former Ohio State quarterback said. "Maybe more than that, if you count seventh and eighth grade."

The Jacksonville Jaguars released Boeckman on Friday, just two days before they opened camp.

It was the latest disappointment he has endured in the past year. After being named first-team All-Big Ten in 2007, the fifth-year senior was benched in favor of freshman Terrelle Pryor after three games last fall.

Boeckman went undrafted in April but landed a tryout with the Cincinnati Bengals. He never heard back from them. The Jaguars signed him in June, and it was a tough blow to be cut just as he was getting ready to head to Florida

I've had a lot of ups and downs," Boeckman said. "I don't know even know the full reason (Jacksonville cut him). I thought I'd at least get a shot in camp."

Boeckman lives in Columbus and will continue working out in case he does get a call. He hasn't had time to formulate a backup plan, such as playing in another pro league or getting a job outside football

There are a lot of unknowns now," he said, adding that he hopes teams will need a quarterback at some point this preseason. "I just have to wait and see if anything pops up."

Jaguars Waive Rookie Quarterback Todd Boeckman

From the artical "Jaguars Sign Third-Round Pick Terrance Knighton; Waive Rookie Quarterback Todd Boeckman"


The Jacksonville Jaguars have signed rookie defensive tackle Terrance Knighton to a contract, the seventh of the team’s nine draft picks to sign a contract this year. Knighton was the first of back-to-back third-round picks in the 2009 NFL Draft, the 72nd pick overall. The club also waived rookie quarterback Todd Boeckman from Ohio State.

Jaguars Sign Todd Boeckman

Former Ohio State quarterback Todd Boeckman, who was not offered a contract by the Cincinnati Bengals after attending their rookie minicamp, signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Wednesday, June 17.

The 25-year-old St. Henry native started the first three games of his senior season last year before Terrelle Pryor took over. Boeckman threw 31 career touchdown passes in 27 games.

Cleo Lemon backed up David Garrard last season, but the Jaguars parted ways with Lemon on Wednesday, leaving the backup job to veteran Todd Bouman. Boeckman will compete for the No. 3 spot.

Boeckman takes NFL rookie camp one blitz at a time

This article is from Saturday May 2nd. I found it on the DaytonDailyNews.com

~Former Ohio State quarterback Boeckman takes NFL rookie camp one blitz at a time~
CINCINNATI — Todd Boeckman didn’t have time to stop and smell the roses. The Ohio State quarterback from St. Henry High School was too busy adjusting to the terminology and playbook.
“They’re putting plays in left and right and heads are spinning,” he said on the first day of Bengals rookie minicamp. “But it’s fun. There’s always going to be nerves when you first get out there. But once you get in the flow, you feel like you’re more at home.”
Boeckman is sharing snaps with Billy Farris of Colorado State. Neither threw an interception.

“It’s a great indoctrination for them,” offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski said. “We’re throwing a lot at them. We’re moving along quickly. It’s very challenging for them, and they’re doing a good job with it.”
