I agree. Their schedule is also extremely favorable. Both Oregon and ND at home. Their tripping point is at Washington, a 2nd consecutive road game. One can hope anyway...

I know this is all projection but why in the world would Oakland trade a first and 2nd rounder for Palmer and the next year spend a #1 pick on a QB - i get this is more about the college kids and where they are projecting them but i found that strange

I really think people are hyping up Tyler Wilson - look at what happened at UL after Petrino left - they came into the next year a highly ranked team with a returning starter at QB who was hyped as a very high pick in the draft and possible hesman candidate and returned 14 starters - that team ended up going 6-6 and Brohm was drafted in the 2nd round

Arky is in a very good division and w/o Petrino it wouldnt surprise me at all to see TWilson come down to earth quite a bit and their record be quite a bit off of what most are projecting - I think Bama and LSU again are the obvious losses but they are at A&M, at Auburn, at USCe, and at MiState - all of those are losable - my guess is they go something like 4-4 in the SEC and 8-4 overall this year

I'll be excited to see Bray on Gruden's QB Camp. Or the show will be discontinued b/c he'll be recruiting for UT




(sarcasm, of course)

True, but the Raiders are like the graveyard for good players, a la Darren McFadden, Rolando McClain, etc.

Cornerback is singular--he can't cover all of our offensive threats at once. I mean, come on. He isn't Rod Wilks....

Just look at Mclovin's 2012 "too early" mock draft. He had Vontaze Burfict in the first round.

...if you can find me a quarterback on a 5-7 team that is 6'6" with a good arm that was drafted in the 1st round please let me know..

You think the Vols will go 5-7 in 2012? Not likely, without significant injuries.

That is the worst mock I have seen yet! Barkley 7th? Wilson #1 overall!? Had to be a mistake.

Barkley will be the number one QB taken. And Bray needs to stay in school until he graduates.

Mclovin has Barrett Jones (Alabama) listed as an offensive tackle. Thought Bama was planning to move him to center. A very "against the grain" move.
