    Are those good numbers, or are those rookie numbers?

    Way too early to give up on him, but at this point if he can turn into a serviceable backup/swing OT it'll be a win. Hell, try him at OG?

    Yeah, now that I'm watching him, I can understand why they drafted the kid from Florida

    The actually show Mertz as #3 on the Texans depth chart. Speaking of Keenum, I didn't even know he was in Chicago now until I looked him up. Thought he would retire here.

    Wait...I was joking

    Keenum is still on a roster? What's he, 47 years old?

    Is he supposed to have upside potential or is this about as good as he is going to be?

    I have no idea whatsoever. He didn't look any better than undrafted Bosmer today though.

    Yes. He missed a lot of time at Florida? with injuries. Big arm, allegedly mobile...who knows?

    Raise your hand if you thought Mertz ain't it BEFORE the draft

    Based on what I saw from Mertz at Wisconsin, he doesn't have a significant upside in the NFL. Didn't watch him at UF.
