I saw on an insider article on espn that brady quinn may fall to the number 8 spot, which is currently help by our Texans. Thoughts whether we'd take him or any other input. Sorry if its already been posted.

To be honest I really don't know what to think about Quinn. His last public appearance was the Sugar Bowl and that is what everyone seems to be judging him by. In retrospect his OLine was only adequate, if that. He had good receivers and RB but a OLine can bring them down as well. With an adequate Oline and suspect defense they played well against lesser opponents and poorly against top teams. Quinn is probably not as bad a some want to make him out to be. All things being equal the team with the better personel in the trenches will usually win. The Big Uglies that Willingham recruited were not as Big and Ugly as the Top BCS teams.

Come on Bill... is that just because his a former ND Qb... or just that overhyped in your eyes ?Think:................... Rick Mirer

In Kubiak and Smith I trust.

How long before you put them on notice?
I find that toatlly reasonable.If we keep losing and they make bonehead signings and drafts like Cassery and Capers, then I won't trust them anymore.

To me, us taking Quinn would mean we had reached the worst case scenario.
Adrian Peterson, Joe Thomas, and Levi Brown would be gone, and there would be no other slot we needed to fill thats worth that pick.
On the other side, it would have the upside of having a "QB of the Future" to learn under Carr for a few years.
Like I said its worst case scenario, I'd rather trade the pick than get Brady Quinn.
It Denver JV team. Not sure if they are any good. Let hope they are good management team that can take the Texans to superbowl.In Kubiak and Smith I trust.
It's funny. People had him as the #1 overall QB LAST YEAR if he had come out as a junior. He probably would have been drafted before Young AND Leinert.
I disagree.
Bud Adams was going to take VY no matter what.
Leinart would have been drafted before him.
He probably would have gone before Cutler, but that's not a given either.
At the beginning of this college season he was touted as the best college player and #1 pick in the NFL draft all year.
Then the guy has ONE bad game in the bowl game and all of a sudden he's the next Rick Mirer? Come on now, he's been great in a PRO style offense under a solid NFL coach in Charlie Weis.
Junior year: 65% completion, 3,919 yards, 32 TDs, 7 INTs
Senior year: 62% completion, 3,426 yards, 37 TDs, 7 INTs
You know I don't have a lot of knowledge of this kid and most on here don't either. But, I will tell you that I watched him in three games this yr.
1. Against a no name and he had a fair game.
2. Against Michigan - Not impressed at all
3. In the Bowl game - Very unimpressed.
In key games, he was unable to compete and the other QB's got the job done.
The kid could be a great pro and only time will tell. Have you compared his numbers to Carr's? Probably similar, as alot of qb's in the past. I just don't have good feeling about the kid. I totally thought he was overrated after the Michigan game and it was confirmed after the bowl game. JMO
If the Texans draft Quinn, I will scream and hope for the best.

I don't think basing how a guy is going to project to the NFL on three games is really that fair. IMO ND while Ty Willingham got some great prospects, stand up class guys that helped improve the Irish image, and was a class act himself. They lacked overral team speed and it showed against Mich, LSU and USC. I thought Brady did an admirable job with less then complete top notch talent outside at times....but he did have a solid line and a good running game.
And I'm willing to bet he'll wind up being a MUCH better pro than JaMarcus Russell...
