Players like Brady could have rode the pine their entire career, lightening in a bottle. Or they could have been players like Kellen Clemens who had so many oportunities that we truely saw how terrible he really was |

If the top of this year's draft class wasn't so awful this guy would be a 3rd or 4th rounder.
Hell last year he would have been. Trade down, package up the 1st rounder this year with Revis and ship him off. Get another 1st rounder next year and a 2nd or 3rd this year. Take Nassib or Manuel later in the draft and take a flier on Marcus Lattimore, even if he doesn't play a down this year. |

QB is the most important position on the field by a wide margin so it should absolutely be a consideration at pick #9.
And there will absolutely be at least 2, probably 4 QBs going in the first round. (Geno and Glennon guarantees) with Barkley and Nassib the others. There are only 3 QB's in this draft that I can make an argument for putting it together and becoming a good NFL QB. 1. Glennon - Not only does he have the arm, but he also has a good release and that matters. I don't know if his mind is quick enough however, but I didn't know about Flacco in that regard either. 2. Nassib - EXCELLENT pocket feel. EXCELLENT release. Good arm, not great but the release being so quick is the best aspect. Not sure about his demeanor on field and I'm not sure about his deep ball or other touch throws. 3. EJ Manuel - Forget his senior bowl, I've liked him for a while now. Some of his positives I think will translate to the NFL VERY well. He's great at screens, unbelievably comfortable with a pass rush coming at him, and has a quick release. The negatives with him however are having to do with that 20 yard throw where he just sometimes short arms it. Before the senior bowl I thought it, and now I continue to think it. EJ Manuel has a good shot at ending up being the best QB of this bunch. Simply because his best traits will translate so well. |

Seriously doubt it
The kids potential is through the roof. Some even touted him as a better prospect than Trent Richardson. Like I said, someone will use a mid-late round pick on him and stash him on the IR for a year. The risk vs reward is well worth it. |
