Let's Talk 2016 NFL Draft Quarterbacks

[popanot]

Not that I'd draft him solely for QB or burn a high pick on him, but come 3rd, 4th, 5th RD, I'm taking Braxton Miller if he's there. We could do A LOT worse (obviously!!!) at backup QB, IMO, and his other football skills are off the charts. I'd have no problem playing him in the slot and in a Randall Cobb - WR/RB/Wildcat role and have him as my emergency QB.

I would agree, you have to look long and hard at Miller.

The east west shrine game starting now on NFL network, 3 P M.
http://m.houstontexans.com/news/arti...e-24be03c923e0

Not the big names but this is the game Tom Brady, Bret Farve, And John Elway played in, so, watch out.

Looks like five or six current Texans played in this game as well as Andre Hal and Mumphreys.

Give me Dak Prescott. He is a winner. I like his leadership and how he lead Miss St. Was a bruising runner, but has improved as a passer. Reminds me of Air McNair.

I thought Prescott and the other SEC QB, Brandon Allen, were the two most impressive QBs at yesterdays Senior Bowl. But unlike the 6' 5" wiz kid Wentz who got all of the hype, the SEC QBs are only about 6'2" so maybe O'Brien won't even consider them when he's evaluating prospects.

Vernon Adams Jr. Is 5'11" and I wouldn't mind having him on this roster as the "Seneca Wallace - type" backup. I'm a measurables geek as much as the next guy. If I'm looking at a roster of players with heights/weights, I notice Jake Coker and Nate Sudfeld because they are 6"5". But when you see a guy play and you take a second look at the measurables iust to make sure you didn't overlook him the first time, and you realize that he's not your prototype, but you want him on your team anyway....that's how you get a great bargtoain/value at the draft. If Russell Wilson had been 6'4" at the Senior Bowl, he would have been a 1st round pick. Jacoby Brissett looked good too.
