Anyone else catch this game? had to DVR it but well worth the watch.
Cannot get over how similar Tony Pike is to Matt Schaub. both 6-6 230ish excel @ throwing on run rolling out as well as standing in pocket. neither terribly mobile but can move the chains from time to time & have injury problems, Tony leaving the game with what they termed "sprained left wrist" but actually its a plate w/screws shifted where he broke it last year moved. I would say he is ahead of where Schaub was coming out of Virginia but should follow similar trend line, however with a shortage of capable QB's out there & success of another similar tall QB Joe Flacco he probably gets a late first rd. grade (which means some team moves up to draft him from 2nd).
Really impressed with South Florida DE's Jason Pierre-Paul (6-6 260) & George Selvie (6-4 245). Of course we've known about Selvie as one of the nations best pass rushing ends but where did JR. Jason Pierre-Paul come from? has NFL written all over him, be interesting if the scouts (reported 25 on hand) don't grade him out as one of the top DE's in the country by end of season tempting him to enter the NFL draft early.
Last but not least as far as the Texans are concerned So. Florida Nate Allen looks interesting @ 6-1 205 (NFL size) playmaking skills leds the team INT's & tackling. Looks like a solid 2nd rd. option, someone to keep an eye on...speaking of keeping an eye on was real impressed with their freshmen QB BJ Daniels the wildcat is custom made for him, Miami is probably chomping @ the bit to draft him.
