re: How bad will Mett's injury effect his draft stock?

SI.com's adjusted opinion on met since the season ending injury LINK
7. Cleveland Browns: Zach Mettenberger, QB, LSU
Up from No. 17, to the Bears, in Mock 3.0. The initial plan for the Browns here was to wait and nab a quarterback later on, with Sammy Watkins the choice at No. 7. Mariota’s departure takes a big piece out of the QB puzzle, forcing the Browns to strike a lot earlier. Mettenberger can hit all the throws, a must for Rob Chudzinski’s vertical passing attack. (Update: Mettenberger reportedly suffered a torn ACL in LSU’s last game, which will keep him out of LSU’s bowl game and likely cause him to miss most pre-draft workouts. With that news, Mettenberger’s probably a Day 2 pick at best, with Johnny Manziel leading the list of replacement options for Cleveland here.)

I don't believe this is possible. Bridgewater and Mariota are the only guys that could go this high.
I think Mett's best chance in the first round is a team toward the front of the order moving up into the first after passing on a QB in the beginning of round one. Cleveland has the ammo to do this.
My prediction would be Arizona (I know I know "LSU WEST!!!") moving up to the top of round 2. Its a good fit for their vertical passing system, and Mett can sit this year behind Carson Palmer (or at least most of the year). They can use their first pick on improving the O-line or get a pass rusher.
