:bowser: :wherewill :fieldgoal
 
kolb~UH~QB
grade: B
Analysis: good all-around player could be a great player. Plays in a weaker conference though.
round: 2nd - 3rd
texans: should get him if there in 3rd round
player like: Id say Steve McNair at best

plamer~UTEP~QB
grade: C or C+
analysis: gets a lot of hype from his brother carson and played in a weaker conference, good arm.
round: 4th - 5th
texans: maybe, i doubt they get him though
player like: joey harrington or eli manning
 
Dwayne Wright, RB Fresno State

analysis: good player, weak conference, good speed, decent strength.
round: 4th - 5th
texans: maybe I like him just not as a every down back.
player like: at best could be like Westbrook, worst like morency
 
those are some of the worst scouting reports i've ever seen. and i'm the draft master around here.

Kevin Kolb
Pros: 4-year starter, good arm, good poise, good field vision, nice release, improved each year consistently
Cons: Played in same offense since high school, gets passes batted down at the line, mechanics need work, last name is pronounced stupidly
NFL Comparison: David Carr, Philip Rivers

Jordan Palmer
Pros: Good size, good family history, good consistent production, decent mobility
Cons: Throws way too many picks, average arm at best, played in a pass-first offense, definitely a project and not someone you can start right away
NFL Comparison: Marc Bulger

Dwayne Wright
Pros: Great size, good production on a poor team, good acceleration, good all-purpose back with the ability to block and catch, great near the goalline
Cons: Doesn't have great speed, missed almost 2 full years due to injury, didn't play well against the best competition
NFL Comparison: Ronnie Brown

i'd love to hear how you got the westbrook comparison with dwayne wright.
 
Kenny Irons
Pros: Great burst, good strength, good size, fights for extra yards every time, still pretty young at the position and will develop more
Cons: More quick than fast, has fumbled more than you'd like, several nagging injuries, disappointing '06 season, not an all-around RB
NFL Comparison: Cadillac Williams

Joe Thomas
Pros: Excellent strength and size, great agility for a man his size, powerful in the running game, progressing almost each week in his pass-protecting abilities, played very well against top competition
Cons: Still a better run-blocker than pass-protector at this point, tore his ACL in the bowl game last year (although he seems to have recovered fine), doesn't have the best hips out there
NFL Comparison: Walter Jones
 
Troy Smith
Pros: Great arm, great leader, very good controlled mobility, good strength, has learned to rely on his arm more and trust his receivers, always played well when it counted, made great strides with character, great pocket awareness; always felt the defender behind him, very good with turnovers
Cons: Height is an issue, some people question if he's over-rehearsed and actually not a good character guy at all, mechanics need a lot of work still, not a lot of experience actually starting at QB, could bulk up more
NFL Comparison: Donovan McNabb
 
Kenny Irons
Pros: Great burst, good strength, good size, fights for extra yards every time, still pretty young at the position and will develop more
Cons: More quick than fast, has fumbled more than you'd like, several nagging injuries, disappointing '06 season, not an all-around RB
NFL Comparison: Cadillac Williams

Joe Thomas
Pros: Excellent strength and size, great agility for a man his size, powerful in the running game, progressing almost each week in his pass-protecting abilities, played very well against top competition
Cons: Still a better run-blocker than pass-protector at this point, tore his ACL in the bowl game last year (although he seems to have recovered fine), doesn't have the best hips out there
NFL Comparison: Walter Jones

Joe thomas is no walter jones he will be more like robert gallery.
 
Troy Smith
Pros: Great arm, great leader, very good controlled mobility, good strength, has learned to rely on his arm more and trust his receivers, always played well when it counted, made great strides with character, great pocket awareness; always felt the defender behind him, very good with turnovers
Cons: Height is an issue, some people question if he's over-rehearsed and actually not a good character guy at all, mechanics need a lot of work still, not a lot of experience actually starting at QB, could bulk up more
NFL Comparison: Donovan McNabb

McNabb is like 6'1 or 6'2, and troy smith is like 5'11 1/2 at the most (jeff garcia's height)
 
Aaron Ross
Pros: Good size, great overall athleticism, good nose for the ball, great breakout year with a lot of takeaways, also good on special teams
Cons: Not great straight-line speed, still raw mechanically, has a thin frame, needs time to develop
NFL Comparison: Chris Gamble
 
Alan Branch
Pros: Huge frame, versatility to be a 3-tech DT or 3-4 DE, holds his ground and clogs up running lanes
Cons: Takes plays off, not as dominant in the passing game as a guy that big should be, not technically sound at all
NFL Comparison: Albert Haynesworth
 
Sam Baker-OT-USC
he's staying his senior year. but:

Sam Baker
Pros: Great athleticism, great feet, played at a top level at the highest level in college football, improving greatly in the running game
Cons: Not very big, will bend at the waist poorly, doesn't really overpower anyone.
 
Drew Tate
Pros: Great competitor, good mechanics and technique, good accuracy, throws well under direct pressure, throws well out of the pocket
Cons: Undersized, doesn't have a great arm, forces too many passes, doesn't show up in the big games.
NFL Comparison: Drew Brees

Pierre Thomas
Pros: Good vision between the tackles, good initial burst, not much wear on the tires
Cons: Not really fast at all, not a breakaway threat, doesn't have great size, plays like a power back but doesn't have the body for it
NFL Comparison: Mike Bell
 
Justin Warren
Pros: Great nose for the ball, good leader, lots of experience, has that inside 'backer mentality, the kind of guy where it's hard to imagine him not succeeding in the NFL
Cons: Average speed, poor in coverage, kinda lumbers around.
NFL Comparison: Derek Smith
 
i haven't watched baylor play in like 2 years.

Leon Hall
Pros: Good leader, good eye for the ball, pretty much a lock to shutdown any underneath routes, very good in the running game
Cons: Doesn't have elite speed, could bulk up a bit more, overall isn't ever going to impress with his pure athletic ability
NFL Comparison: Ty Law
 
Justin Warren
Pros: Great nose for the ball, good leader, lots of experience, has that inside 'backer mentality, the kind of guy where it's hard to imagine him not succeeding in the NFL
Cons: Average speed, poor in coverage, kinda lumbers around.
NFL Comparison: Derek Smith


What round do you see him going in? a second day pick?
 
he seems destined for the 3rd round. with a good combine he could go 2nd round easily though. not a great draft for ILB's, he could take advantage.
 
I figured one of the draft masters would've caught a glimpse of a Baylor game. If not to see Sepulveda then at least to see us play Texas, Oklahoma, or Texas A&M.

Alright here's a chance at redemption for the draft masters.

Korey Hall, LB, Boise State
 
Surely one of the draft masters have seen a Boise State game.

It's not just Baylor, but think of all the other small school/ small conference prospects that the draft masters are missing out on. Then you got Division II guys as well.

My mistake though. Guess I expected too much from draft masters. Guess they show a lot more UTEP games than Baylor games in Florida.
