What do people see in Kolb other than he played for UH, maybe you were to busy watching bevo to watch a UH game. with limited play makers around Kolb he did very well and put up great numbers.
30 td and 4 int with 33 sacks. I am sure some of the sacks were him holding on to the ball to long or trying to make plays but at least he did not throw it to the other team. UH did not have any real threats at WR, there best WR is only 5'8". 3 out of 4 yrs with 60% completetion % and 3 out of 4 years with over 3k yards passing and only one year with double digit Ints.
Ok he was not super human at the senior bowl but I dod not take much stock in that because you have one week to learn the offense and the players. He is impressed the scouts at the combine so that has moved his stock up.
Being a huge ND fan I love BQ, but I also am wise enough to know the Texans need so much help I would rather draft Levi in the first and Kolb in the second. There are so many first round bust in the NFL that it just seems the money would be best served to draft a QB in the second. No I am not saying Russell or Quinn will be a bust.
So I would do ...
OL in first
QB in second if Kolb is there
DB in the third
WR in the fourth (or best player available)
I do not have a problem reaching on a player if it fills a need and it is not a huge reach.
