Reggie Mcneil: Predict where he goes

[Rocket River]

Everyone says 5th round

If that is the Case. . . I say Pittsburgh takes him at the end of the 4th
With Randle El gone. . . they need a new Slash

Reggie Fits the bill

he is a better QB than Randle El was

[Baqui99]

Reggie would've been a 2nd or 3rd rounder at QB if he came out after his junior year. His senior year was an unmitigated disaster as he overthrew receivers regularly, showed no pocket presence, and demonstrated inadequate leadership skills. Hell, even Fran benched him for the season finale vs Texas at Kyle Field.

But, I will say that with the success that Antwan Randle-El and Hines Ward in the NFL, I wouldn't be surprised to see him drafted as a WR. He's got legit 4.4 speed and decent size at 6'2. I think someone might just take a 3rd round flyer at best, but he could fall to the 4th round.

Randle El finished 6th in heisman voting as a senior.

Reggie McNeal finished 0th

Big Ten Player of the Year, 1st Team All-American. On a crappy team, no less.

Uhhh...wasn't he injured?

[percicles]

Uhhh...wasn't he injured?

That was the "official" reason.

[JamesC]

I cant predict which round he goes in but I wouldnt be surprised to see the cowboys take him.

[Supermac34]

I'm intrigued by McNeil. He had a horrible and injury plagued senior year.

His junior year was pretty good and he was a dark horse for a run on the Heisman before his craptacular senior season.

He is extremely physically gifted. He is not only flat out fast, but his acceleration is very fast as well.

I think a lot of teams will be looking at him as a pure athelete in the third to fifth rounds.

What intrigues me most about his is his arm. He has a cannon, and before his senior year, he showed pretty good accuracy, especially on quick short passes that a lot of NFL teams use.

If in 5 years he turns out to be a total bust and never play any significant time, I wouldn't doubt it. If after 5 years he turns out to be a decent NFL player, I wouldn't doubt that either.

[texanskan]

The Texans will be able to get something real nice for that 4th round pick.

Either they go to bed Saturday night knowing that there is someone very good who should of been a first day pick that they really want with that number one pick of day two or they figure there are a couple of guys that they want and then a trade down a few spots for an extra pick.

As far as Mcneil I would be very disapointed if we drafted him in the forth round because we have no fifth round pick and the sixth and seventh rounds are tough to land a player who will be more than a practice squad guy.

[VooDooPope]

Well there is a 1 in 32 chance he goes to the texans.

he's not going to the Astros and he's not going to the Comets so let me be the first to say...

There is a 96% chance this thread is in the <b>wrong forum</b>. :D

Yeah -- Randle El was a special college player. McNeil is gifted athletically, but his accomplishments on the football field don't compare.

You post is Mclame. :rolleyes:

Care to enlighten us all again on the prowess of Mcneal over VY? The Bush or Young thread is too long for me to go dig out all those classics you posted there.

And you didn't even answer the question... "Where do you think he'll go in the draft"?

[surrender]

Reggie ran a 4.35 in the combine. He'd make a nice returner and receiver for some team

yeah, i was gonna mention that, i remember hearing on 610 that he ran 4.32 or something like that.... peaked my interest.....anyone that is 6'2" and runs that fast is worth gambling on.....we can run the wishbone! ! ! =P

He also was in a system that was change to a spread OPTION as a Senior. This is not his ideal system as he is not an option QB. He also lost his top 3 WR's early in the season and had to work with many WR's that couldn't catch the ball.
He was benched due to an injury in the OU game. I've heard he actually suffered the ankle injury earlier in the season and then aggrivated it in the OU game.
I do not see him as a WR as he has more straight ahead speed than anything else. If he doesn't make it as a QB, which given the right system and situation I think he will make a fine QB in a couple of years, I could see him turning out to be something similar to what Jerome Mathis is right now.

Round 4, I still think he has as much talent is Vince. It's sad that people can't spell his name right.

no he wouldn't, he is not a good runner. He is fast though

You actually know what you are talking about with Mcneal. I am glad someone does

well apparently all the scouts disagree with you...blah blah blah....yeah, i'm sure you're much smarter than all the scouts...blah blah blah....VY will go in the top 10, for sure and RM won't go until the second day....blah blah blah....you RM freaks are out in full force...blah blah blah....

Who cares when they go in the draft? We will see how they each do. I don't care what Vince does. Hopefully they both do well. I think Reggie can be a good player.

One of Reggie's trainers almost ran me over in a golf cart. Reggie was laughing while riding shotty.

Personally, I think Reggie and IC2000 should get a room.

Great college athlete, but lets how it translates into the NFL...I can see him going to Pittsburg or even Tampa Bay...

What Max, people can't disagree with scouts? (http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=2239779&postcount=7) (Yes, I realize I just compared reporters to scouts, but both are payed to know their stuff.)

I'm going to go to bed now, mainly because I feel dirty for halfway defending IC2000.

Well, that and that other thing. But we're not talking about that right now.

wow...apparently my attempt at humor was completely lost.

during the whole VY/RB debate, the post I posted above is identical to what i've heard from RB fans. that the scouts had him ranked higher...and that's that. nothing to see here...move along.

now....get it????

[KAS13]

McNeal is interesting. He's got a great arm and good mobility but his accuracy has been poor and the general consensus is that he's going to have trouble reading defenses. I'd take a flyer on him in the 5th round (we don't have a pick though). Nothing sonner then that. We have other areas we need to address and QB is the last of them. This is too deep a draft to take risks on position that aren't of need.

[SA Rocket]

I read today the same stuff we've been hearing about him...that he wants at least a fair chance at QB, but that he's willing to switch to WR if they ask him to. BUT...this time he added something I hadn't seen before...that he's also willing to play safety. Is this something he did in high school?

Anyhow, I'm guessing the Cowboys take him. Probably round 4 or 5.

What's with all the VY/McNeal hate anymore? Sheesh, the college years are over and VY won that round. (I'm an Ag and I can admit that) Bottom line is they're both Texans, so what's wrong with hoping they BOTH do great at the next level. Pointing out the weaknesses they'll have to overcome is fine, but I don't understand posters who seemingly take great joy in focusing on their shortcomings. :confused:

Go McNeal AND Young, make Texas proud fellas!

Once he opened himself up to other positions
his chances of playing QB bottomed out

I think Pittsburg still
They need a new slash

[buffalospeedway]

I used to think that it would be too perfect that an old quarterback coach who happens to be an aggie...

is taking over an NFL team in the year that the aggies and the Longhorns both have draftable quarterbacks coming out of school...

there's all of this attention being paid to the Longhorn by the fans and the media...

it's day two of the draft and the aggie is still on the board...

Nah, it'd never happen.

[HayesStreet]

Europe.

[Ziggy]

If Reggie and Vince both came out last year I really think McNeal would have gone first. This year his recievers let him down big time early on with injury and dropped passes. That seemed to kill his confidence in the long run. Mechanically he seems strong, I think he deserves a shot. I remember watching Seneca Wallace (Seahawk QB) back in the day and Reggie showed he has way more potential than Wallace did. He is way too small to play safety right now. gig em pie

[DaDakota]

Where will he go?


After Vince....WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY after Vince.

I think I read somewhere that he took about 24 snaps as a FS his Senior year in HS. Of those 24 snaps, he had 6 or 8 interceptions. I think he would make a great ball hawk, but a poor tackler.

so the texans' decided in the 6th round that they needed a poor man's lendale white over an underrated McNeal??

wow. i hope he makes it big, and then replaces carr when he comes off his bengals rookie contract.

He seems set on being a qb by his refusal to work out at other positions...

Reality catches up to everybody sooner or later. If he's not gonna get paid as a QB he's gonna move whether he likes it or not.

I think Marvin Lewis will give him a chance to prove that he can be a quarterback first.

[geeimsobored]

I think Marvin Lewis will give him a chance to prove that he can be a quarterback first.

ESPN interviewed marvin lewis today and it sounded like he's pretty set on converting him to another position. He kept talking about Reggie's great athleticism and potential and how he will find a way to take advantage of his skills.

I strongly doubt Reggie will be playing QB in the NFL.
