Draft BOLO
-
Obviously not forgetting Johnny Football. Also, for the homers there's braxton miller.
In terms of who we'll be drafting, *if* we have a good enough season, we might be looking at a TE, ILB, DB, or OG. I think if the players we have live up to potential, we could be set everywhere else, unless a stud comes along. However, it's worth keeping an eye on the top WRs in case Flash decides he loves that ganja too darn much and the team cuts/trades him.

Braxton is coming back. He's got a lot to work on. Gardner will come back too. Gardner at least has that prototypical NFL QB size.

Most people, I would think, see Manziel and Miller as more great "college QBs" than NFL QBs....unless this read option thing really changes the pro game.
Beyond that, some names:
C.J. Mosley LB Alabama
Bradley Roby CB Ohio St.
Cyril Richardson OG Baylor
Gabe Jackson OG Mississippi St.
Jason Verett CB TCU
Sammy Watkins WR Clemson
Marquise Lee WR USC
and I guess you could throw Bridgewater and Boyd in there.

At least Braxton is good. Also, Braxton is bigger than Manziel and RGIII. Supposedly Braxton has made a lot of progress on his throwing mechanics and footwork this offseason as he spent a couple weeks with QB guru George Whitfield. Make no mistake about it, Miller will be in New York for the Heisman presentation.

Miller is listed at 6'2" 215. Gardner is 6'4" 204.
OK, so Gardner= Byron Leftwich
Miller= RGIII

I'm an OSU fan, so I hope I'm wrong about this. But if Miller turns out to be half as good as RG3, I will be a shrimp boat captain

I never said Miller was bigger than Gardner or as good as RGIII. I was simply saying that Miller is big enough and that he's tons better than Gardner.
Miller= RGIII

McCarron is overrated. He has the best team in the country around him. He'll just be a game manager in the NFL...
...but then again I never though Kirk Cousins would be as good as he is.
Big prize is Clowney obviously. Hopefully Lewan is going top 5 too. It would depend on who needs QBs that high, but I think he'll be the top tackle.

I think McCarron has a chance to be good, but unfortunately Alabama's office since Saban has been there puts QB's as 'game managers'. All i know is he looked FANTASTIC in the title game, albeit against an extremely overrated Notre Dame team.

Only qb that matters is Bridgewater.

This kid has his head on right. He will graduate from UL at the end of this year. Somewhere along the way he has listened to a mentor who has kept him on the straight and narrow. He would have been top QB selected in 2013 draft had he come out.

Yes, and my post implied that I agreed with you. (And who knows, if RGIII can't stay healthy, RGIII may not end up being as good as people think RGIII should be.....and maybe, in fact, Miller could actually end up being better than RGIII.
Maybe.

I'd give up my draft and next years #1 for Clowney. He is as good a prospect to ever come down the line. Randy White, LeRoy Selom, Bruce Smith.....that is what we are talking about. A once every 25 year player.

I don't trust QBs from the bigger schools. Too much talent around them and it makes them harder to read. Not a big McCarron fan. But Bridgewater... that guy took an alright Louisville team and beat the crap out of Florida.

Don't trust QBs from bigger schools?
Would you say these are not "big schools":
Michigan...Tom Brady
Tennessee...Peyton Manning
Purdue...Drew Brees
Auburn...Cam Newton
Boston College...Matt Ryan
Georgia...Matt Stafford
Stanford...Andrew Luck
Oklahoma...Sam Bradford
USC...Carson Palmer
NC St.....Phillip Rivers
Mississippi...Eli Manning
Wisconsin....Russell Wilson
Oklahoma St....Weeden
For every BR that comes out of Miami, Oh., or ever Colin Kaepernick that comes out of Nevada-Reno, there are 3-4 starting NFL QBs that come from the power conference schools.

When I think of the bigger schools I think of the Oklahomas, the USCs, the Ohio States, the Michigans. The ones that are always in the national title hunt and get the top recruits just because of their name.Don't trust QBs from bigger schools?

Georgia? Yea they're a big school in a big conference, but they're not one of the elite programs that is in the hunt every year. The reason they've been in it the last few years is quarterbacking. Stafford and Murray are pretty good qbs. In between those two qbs Georgia wasn't in BCS bowl games and playing for the SEC Championship.
You do have your exceptions though. Brady at Michigan, Palmer at USC, and even though he hasn't done much in the NFL, I'd put Sam Bradford from Oklahoma in that category.
I guess most bigger schools just run gimmicky offenses. Give me a guy from a pro style offense any day.

Agree on Pro style QB...
On Clowney...
He has been an awesome DE in a 4-3, but where do you play him in a 3-4???

Was on my phone this morning and couldn't give a good idea of what I mean. The guys I consider of this list to be from smaller, non traditional power schools are Matt Ryan, Kolb, Cutler, Dalton, Weeden, Romo, Stafford, Rodgers, Schaub, Luck, Gabbert, Alex Smith, Tannehill, Brees, Eli, Vick, Roethlisberger, Rivers, Wilson (most of his time was at NC State), Kaepernick, Freeman, Locker, and Griffin.
I'd almost put Manning in there just because Manning was running that offense and Tennessee is hit or miss on being a power. Back then they were phenomenal, but now they're not so much. I'd almost put Newton in there as well. Without Newton, Auburn has been a pretty mediocre team for the better part of a decade (04 as an obvious exception). Most QBs from schools like Oklahoma, USC, Miami, Florida, Florida State, LSU, Notre Dame, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, etc. just don't pan out. The QBs I trust the most are the ones that go to a school like Georgia or Stanford. They have some talent around them so they can show of their skills, but they're not overwhelmed with 5 star recruits every year that can make a mediocre QB look good.
Why I like Bridgewater so much? He plays for Louisville, a team that is solid and can usually put together 7-5 seasons and play in a bowl game, but you put a QB like Teddy in there and they immediately jump up to the Sugar Bowl and dominate a really good, one loss Florida team. Plus he has a good head on his shoulders unlike so many players.
