I actually looked it up just to make sure I didn't miss any sleepers. It is as bad as I remember.
#1 - JaMarcus Russell
#22 - Brady Quinn
#36 - Kevin Kolb
#40 - John Beck
#43 - Drew Stanton
#92 - Trent Edwards
#103 - Isaiah Stanback
#151 - Jeff Rowe
#174 - Troy Smith
#205 - Jordan Palmer
#217 - Tyler Thigpen
Undrafted - Matt Moore | Russell had the tools.
Kolb is getting better and better.
Stanton had the skills and did nothing.
Troy Smith won the Heisman and should not have. As an Ohio St fan I never thought he would ever get drafter. Sit the bench his entire nfl career.
This group now does not look promising at all either. I can see again one out of the batch making it, that would be Bortles. Rest I dont see lasting.
Bridgewater looks promising but is skinny and will not be able to take a ton of hits and we all know Manziel will get beat up.
49ers need Manziel...................:d |
