I don't agree


Mett is a hard read as for draft purpose in my mind.

His mediocre performances vs. Fla., Old Miss, and Arkansas are hard to understand after his dominate games vs. Ga. and Miss St. He had only 2 ints in his 1st 7 games, but had 6 ints in his last 5 games.

His lack of mobility will be an issue and I don't know what, if any, effect his injury will have on his draft.

I'm thinking 3rd to 5th rd.

For the guys saying it's because he had two great receivers:

I love Odell and Jarvis and they are great receivers. But we all saw what happened in the bowl game, 82 yards passing? I know it was a freshman QB and all that but mett is part of the reason we saw their potential. How many passes did he throw to Landry in tight coverage on a rope very few QBs would even consider throwing much less actually attempt. How many far side deep outs to beckam... These guys made each other great and Mettenburger is great in my opinion. Jarvis and Odell could have easily been 600 yard receivers and forgotten about in 5 years with a lot of the QBs we had the last 20 years. Imagine josh reed without Rohan davey... He was still incredible but wouldn't have put up near the numbers and be remembered in the way he is now.
