The NFL Draft…where will these guys be in five years?
Thursday, April 24th, 2008There is something that has really bothered in the last few weeks when it comes to the draft coverage on all the networks. Everyone keeps mentioning that there is not a “franchise quarterback” in the top three, but how does any “draft expert” know that?
I mean seriously, nobody truly knows how any of these guys, (quarterbacks or otherwise) are going to turn out. Was Akili Smith a franchise quarterback? Tim Couch? The list could go on and on, but, please whatever you do, stop saying there isn’t a “franchise quarterback” in the top 3. Nobody knows who will turn out to be the best quarterback in the draft right now, and we won’t know for at least another five or ten years…
Maybe Chad Henne or John David Booty becomes the next Tom Brady. The same Brady who was a sixth round pick, oh by the way.
I think Matt Ryan has the chance to be good, if he gets picked into the right system. I stood in the pouring rain in Blacksburg a few months ago, and watched as he led a mediocre BC team past the Hokies.
My sleeper pick of the weekend, a total homer pick I know, but still…..Kevin Smith…RB UCF
The guy is a workhorse and will make some team very happy in the 3rd or 4th round…..
Leave your thoughts in the comments as to how you think the draft might go…..
