Who are you to say? He's decent size, good athlete, has a great arm, and has shown nothing but good decisions on the field, as evidenced by his astronomical passer rating this season.

Now nobody can predict the future, and sometimes the most promising prospects can fail miserably, but what has he shown you to say he will do that? Nothing to me.

All very good points. I shouldn't have said he won't amount to jack, but I really don't think he'll do much in the NFL. Who am I to say? Well, I guess I'm just a human being with an opinion.

Smith is short by NFL QB standards. He will not be able to see over the line and that will cost him in draft status.

Agreed. Mid first-round if Ohio State wins, second round if Florida wins.

Tune into the Saints/Cowboys game tonight and watch a short QB struggle.

On the flip side, tune into MNF and watch a short QB light it up.

Speaking of MAC QBs, did Omar Jacobs get drafted?

Alright first of all, the WAC consists of Boise St. Hawaii, Nevada, San Jose St, Fresno St, Idaho, New Mexico St, Louisiana Tech, and Utah St. out of these teams 4 finished over 500. Not really that good of competition. Brennan beat twos team this year so far and that was Boise St. and Alabama. I guess you can call those teams.
I mean don't get me wrong he's a decent quarterback but don't go writing him off as a superstar his offense provides mediocre quarterbacks the ability to excel like chang. I mean look at Danny Almonte, sure he can carve kids in the little league world series that are a few years younger than him.

Not in a million years. He might even be better, although I don't think so. Regardless, no one is going to take that big of a chance with the top pick. If he busts, it would be an epic mistake. I'm sure most teams would rather take the guy that's already had training from a respected NFL coach.
