But also, and I said this before...

Mettenberger has NFL stuff.

Arm strength is equal to anyone else being drafted, if not better.

Height is solid at 6'5" and weight isn't bad either. He can build from it and get stronger.

He reminds me of an old story I heard once:

Two guys running to first base. One guy is near perfect and scores high in every single category while the other guy is terrible and scores poorly, however both men make it to first base at the exact same time. Who do you draft?

Answer: Take the guy with all the poor scores because with a little coaching he beats out Mr. Perfect every time.

That doesn't make any sense. If the one guy has already almost reached perfection in everything outside of running to 1st, why would you take a project who can ultimately only reach the same level as the other player. That's a feel good story for the average man that doesn't have work ethic.
