Jacksonville? Why? They're almost as bad as the Raiders are at developing talent.

Has more to do with the system that Brees is in.

I hope Mett does slide to the early second so the Texans can take Mett 1st pick of the 2nd round. I do not see that big a difference between Bortles/JFF/Bridgewater and Mett/Carr/Garrapolo. Texans should take Clowney then Mett. Slam dunk picks.

People said the same for Flutie - he did ok for himself…

The guys over on NFLN compared him to Drew Bledsoe.
Never thought of it but pretty spot on.

Did you just call Mett a douchebag?

How did this thread get derailed into a Manziel discussion?

I don't know if the vets in Houston will like his attitude. Specifically, Arian Foster.

mett is 6'5 with a big arm. that will attract a lot of pro guys. i see ALL the other qbs slipping and mett gaining steam. could be a battle for mett at the top of the 2nd round thus pushing mett late, late in first round. mett fits what o'brien (texans) want. vikings will have to jump into 1st round to get him.

So Brees is a 'system' QB ?
As far as Mett goes, he needs to go to a situation with a veteran Oline and a good running game. The intriguing organization in all of this is Cleveland. Imagine if they draft Sammy Watkins in the 1st and get Mett in the 2nd or 3rd Rd. Watkins,Gordon,Hawkins,Cameron,Tate & Mett would be interesting.

Fosters days in Houston are numbered so that doesnt mean much

The same. People want to go back to Wilson and talk about how he's doing it, but forget that Wilson was a better QB to begin with. He's not erratic and he doesn't just throw it up for grabs to his WRs
The majority of JF's WRs are 6'2+ so all he has to do is wait til one gets open and chunk it up.
Also had Wilson not been good at the 3RD ROUND PICK he was drafted at, how would Manziel be viewed? Seems like the success of others are getting guys drafted a lot higher than they should. Bortles is nowhere near first round material and Manziel isn't either. Bortles should pray to Kap and Newton for their success and Manziel should hold up a shrine to Wilson.

I agree he will struggle. Dude's that short not named Drew Brees struggle.
I bet Super Bowl champion Russell Wilson would disagree with you.

Evidently he's testing really well. I was never impressed with his arm and feel his passing game will limit him at the next level. He got away with a lot of stuff in college he will not in the NFL. Depends on the system. Guess you could say that for any QB though.

i hear they dined at coyote blues. rob ryan was there. john brady and don lemon sang fifty ways to leave your lover while ej kuale sipped a gin and tonic.

vikings are passing on the big 3 at no. 8 and are looking to a qb with their 2nd round pick no doubt.

All the coryell coordinators are gonna have mett earmarked given his success with one year with cam.
