Exactly! He is unique. He does things that few before him have. He is still raw in the sense he hasn't nearly tapped his full potential. People who truly watch him know this.
He really does. For as little punishment as quarterbacks are allowed to take nowadays, his size will not be an issue. Hand size, maybe. But they look okay, as well. I'd pick him number one overall tomorrow, and I wouldn't think twice. As I've said before, I'll be fine with any of the three of him, Manziel, or Clowney, and my preferences are in that order. I think he will be 6'2", 210 and run a 4.6 or 4.65. I believe that's Weinke in that picture, but I could be wrong. He's listed at 6'4". It's hard to tell how far away from Bridgewater he is, but Teddy doesnt look to be much shorter than him.
You know you make a good point, based on what you're saying, since Notre Dame has produced the most super bowl winning QB's, we should draft Tommy Rees; Then, if we're lucky we can get Everett Golson, that way we can double our chances! It does blow my mind how you come up with some of the things you come up with....lol. You say we don't need a "1st round QB", yet you've admitted that we do need a good one. Well then I pose the question, if we know we need a good player, at the game's most important position, and players get worse as the rounds get higher, when are we supposed to take a player that plays the most important position???
No need to explain logic to Remi. He will argue it, even if it contradicts a point he has made before.
Of the last 10 superbowls winners 7 had a qbs taken in the 1st round. Of the last 20 Superbowl team 12 of the 20 had qbs taken in the 1st round.
Kerry Collins was a 1st round pick Flash so he doesn't fit in the Kurt and Trent group. Funny thing is he was drafted by Carolina with a top 5 pick. They kick him to the curb _ draft Peppers _ and end up making it to the super bowl with Jake Delhomme and the Giants made it with Kerry. Anyway, I was just showing you the stasticics of teams that made it to the super bowl with 1st round quarterbacks vs teams that made it without quarterbacks drafted in the 1st... I have no argument/debate about what you want and or feel the Texans to do. And no... I have no freaking idea who the Texans are going to draft. Unfortunately for me I have to wait until draft day to find out.
Yes. That is true. I just started the comparison at the start of the new millennium. Times are different with the cap rules.
(Video) Who is the best fit for the Texans at QB? http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-draft/0ap2000000326505/Best-QB-fit-for-Texans
Air Langhi did me the honors of pulling more info of how many QBs have made it to SBs and also won SBs. My point was, it's not as black and white as you make it seem. It's not "yeah lets just pick up the next Tony Romo and think we're going to make it to multiple super bowls since we found him without a first round draft pick!" that's the way Dallas sees it, but the more realistic person knows that it's not going to happen while he is there as QB. There are quality QBs that do come in later rounds or even free agency, evidenced by all our lists of said QBs, although its not as clear cut as being able to draft the "next" Russell Wilson as you and bigtexx pronounce it to be. Its been harder even for the best teams and evaluators to do; Patriots Kevin O'Connell, Ryan Mallett; Packers Brian Brohm; and..... Cowboys Isiah Stanback!
No Mr Prime _ I said "PERCENTAGES SAY" you don't need to draft a quarterback in the 1st round to compete. But maybe the Texans will fall in love with the player you want and will draft him #1.
Ah, yes. Again just reproving my point times ARE different. Every single time is different. You don't have the same players come through for each draft. You don't have the same teams and they're not under the same circumstances. EVERYTHING CHANGES!!!
Not true. Again see attached percentages say you find better QB talent in the first as opposed to later rounds. See below. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=249124
It is true. Because I already showed you that during that time frame of the link you posted _ 10 times teams have made it to the super bowl with a 1st round quarterback (I forgot about Rex Grossman) and won 7 championships. And 11 times teams have made it to the super bowl with none 1st round quarterbacks and won 8 championships. I'm talking about super bowls and you're talking about the individual talent of the quarterbacks which is not what I'm debating. So like I said, I don't know who the Texans will draft. But maybe they will feel Teddy is the best way to go like you do and draft him. We shall see.
And like I said every teams and players situation is different. Sometimes you do luck up and find a Kurt Warner in the grocery store to take you to a few SBs and win you one. But a majority of the time, that ain't happenin. For us to wait for our Kurt Warner would be idiotic when we have one good and ready to take the reigns and help lead us there in the near future.
But Remii every team wants to win Super Bowls. That's what they strive for every year. And there is no exact formula. Some teams win with better defense and some teams win with better offense. For some teams special teams make the difference. You can argue that defense is the most important factor and you would be right this year but there have also been years when the best quarterback in the league has led his team to a championship. The point you forget or avoid is you can't draft a whole defense. But you can draft a whole QB. THere are many studies that suggest a QB is the most valuable position on the field in terms of wins and DE is second but it's a decent gap. You can argue that but you won't win that with me. To me the only thing to debate is if Teddy Bridgewater has the potential to be an elite franchise QB. I am very confident that he does. I gather that you do not. But that's where the debate lies or should lie. If there are no elite QBs and the pool is truly as you suggest like last years than I would be all in favor of picking the best player preferably DE in this draft. I don't say Clowney because I have a lot of skepticism about his work ethic. But I believe there is a QB that will be a franchise QB. Bortles, Carr,Garrapolo are prospects but Bridgewater is Elite. He will come in and contribute right away. Almost from day one. If that's true than how can anyone argue against taking him. Of course I know you do not believe that to be true but thats were the argument should be IMHO. No where else.
