Looks MUCH better than Tannehill IMO....Though I know that isn't saying much

Reminds me of Kosar with his delivery.

Same reason they're on Tannehill's nuts. He plays QB, a position where prospects are taken way earlier than they should be.

LOL. So its a big deal for McCoy to throw to some high schoolers, but ok when Brett Favre does it?

Mississippi has different HS rules I suppose.

The way i read into it though, it seemed like the IHSA considers McCoys passes as practicing football. I know in Ohio, unless you have a camp or in 2 a days you can't have organized football activities (running plays, not lifting/conditioning) during the off season.

Brett Favre was making those passes during 2 a days. Regardless, if the IHSA doesn't use common sense, they are fucking idiots.

Well it is Illinois so I wouldn't be surprised if they even knew what common sense was.

hes 6'4 220 had 37 touchdown passes and 4200 yards passing last year, he has a gun, can read defenses and has good accuracy this is why people are high on him and why i think he is a strong possibility for the browns at 37.

It will be a very tough one to stomach if we draft him with #37.

Agreed. I'd rather grab a LB or OL there.

Same. It would be even tougher to stomach if Holmgren really does leave after this draft. If there is any ounce of truth to those rumors, I am telling him to leave now if I am Lerner. Can't have a guy making decisions if he doesn't care.

They would both be a huge waste of a pick, when there will be plenty of other players who can provide plenty of value.

Not a fan of wasting picks, especially in the earlier rounds.

I think Weedon is worth a shot in the second round. I wouldn't draft Tannehill at all. Wouldn't sign him as a FA either.

Well...prepare to be sick because if they want Weeden the pick will likely be at 22. He's probably not going to last to 37.

I don't see Miami trading up to #4. No sense in it. If they know the Browns have no interest in Tannehill, why not let him drop to 8.

Heckert will be getting fired then. Also who the hell would pick him after 22, he drops to the 3rd or 4th round easily if the Browns and Miami stay away from him.

If the Browns take a 28 year old QB at 22 it will be the worst draft pick in the history of the universe.
