QBs in this draft class.

The bridge between stupid and useless is short.
I desperately want a quarterback to groom behind Schaub as I see his play tailing off...agree or not thats been hashed out repeatedly. I didn't watch much college ball this year but i've been reading a LOT of scouting reports on the position...
This is a dreadful year to draft a qb in the top 4 rounds. I cant find anybody I really like. Even Geno wouldnt be a consideration for me till the early 2nd. Some schaub clones out there and that kinda defeats the purpose of drafting one for me.
I've gotta agree with playoffs on this. Teams ALWAYS reach...we'll see less this year.

It's never too early or a BAD year to look forward.

There's something wrong with those guns.
Glennon easily has the best arm.
Also, I've recently rewatched 5 Volunteers games the last couple of days (to verify that smoke screen about C Patterson - that director must be a crack head if he truly believes what he claimed and should be fired on the laptop).
Bray was clocked between 50-55, normally closer to 50 than 55.

Not really; they still drafted 7 QBs in the first 4 rounds.
With it being a weak class, other teams simply waited longer for the rest.
I've got my top 4 guys drafted, just not in the order.
Most impressive was Mike Glennon, whom I thought to be a better prospect than most if not all around here felt, LOL.

Yes, but the average draft position for those 7 was #80. Only 2010's draft had the top 7 QBs selected averaging a lower draft slot over the past 13 drafts.
I think this group would have gone higher, had they matched up with the trend of athletic QBs. The two QBs with plus athletic ability were the 1st 2 QBs selected. Had Barkley and Glennon been able to run 4.6 40's, they would have gone in the 1st or 2nd rounds, as well.
