Okay, straight up who is the best QB in this draft? Do not think of tactics and rounds, but who is most likely to succeed and be the best NFL QB in this draft class?
After poring over the top 10 or so guys in this draft, I have come to the conclusion that if I was forced to pick one, it would be Aaron Murray. He has everything except a cannon arm and proto-typical size, but as we all know, that is not going to stop a true talent especially in the right system with the right coach. He can make every throw and has a back-shoulder fade that would be the envy of most of the NFL QB's right now and he throws a good deep ball with no flutter. I would be delighted if he came to Houston and we let him take a whole bunch of preseason snaps and give him garbage time in the regular season to bring him along.
Mostly everyone around here is either going to vote for Jonathan or Theodore. Waste of a poll... Unless there's a stripper on it.
You're only allowed 10 options - I could have put Mathews in ahead of Smith if I had the room. Is Smith your man?
Sorry, not to try to pile on but I didn't see your post before I read bigtexxx's response above. How in the world is it "not even really close" ?

Bridgewater is most accurate qb in the class, high football IQ, POCKET PRESENCE and POISE, a good enough arm to make all the throws 1. Football Instincts, Check 2. Football IQ, Check 3. Pocket poise/presence, Check Can't say the same for the rest of the prospects in this class
How exactly is it not even close? If it wasnt even close, then the Texans taking Bridgewater would be a no brainer and a contract would have already been determined at this time. But the fact of the matter is that it is actually close...and that is why everything is up in the air right now. Sometimes, this psychopathic love for one player is so ridiculous...it's cute and heart warming to see for a little while, but when it becomes so blind to reality, it becomes quite annoying.
I know Lets be honest, the "more potential for greatness" stuff is a complete dye in wool media fabrication.
