Wentz just passes the eye test ... He looks better than some QBs rated ahead of him. I'd love to have the first pick there
Ya there are big concerns about his personality and lack of leadership qualities. Apparently it was pretty well known around MSU. My bigger concern is his play against quality opponents last season. Outside of the Oregon game, he threw under 50% completion rate and just 1 TD versus Michigan, Iowa State, and Bama combined.
It's looking that way for sure. There is a decent chance all 3 could be available by our 2nd pick as well.
yea just like they thought they could grab Garappollo with the 3rd round pick and the patriots traded up and drafted him. If the Texans really believe in a QB in this draft- than you take him when you can- there might be other organizations that also believe in that guy and will draft him if you pass on him

That was true for that draft. This one has better talent, imo, than Hackenberg and Cook being slotted down through the 3rd-4th rounds.
Ya I like Prescott a lot. A good showing at the combine could raise his stock more than other QBs IMO.
If the Texans see a QB at their first pick who they project to be league average or better, they should not **** around and just draft him.

I'm not sure Prescott or cook will be there when we draft in the second. But probably Hack and Cardale will
It's funny. I said Wentz was in the Andrew Luck mold. Two months later, now Mayock says it. It's totally tire, though. Not that Luck is as good as people make him out to be. It's just that if Wentz had gone to an SEC school, or a Big Ten or PAC 12 or whatever, he'd be compared to Luck quite often, and he'd be a for sure number one pick. He's the guy I'd love to have. I wouldn't mind Goff. I dotn expect either to be available, but I could see a wild scenario to where we could leapfrog the Rams for one of them. Hackenberg, to me, is still a nice consolation prize. Even though most don't consider that to be the case. By consolation prize, I mean second round pick.
