    Pancakes sure is going all in with this first round QB nonsense. I'm now pretty much 100% convinced that there is no way the Texans take a QB in the first.

    I think you're right about Johnny falling to the 2nd round and Teddy may be right there with him.

    Bridgewater won't fall past the 5th pick

    Wouldn't be surprised if the Jags get him and then a guy like Carr or Jimmy G is chosen ahead of Bortles or Manziel

    Call me out...??? This is an anonymous online site and here you are with school yard bully antics. You're a mental midget. That's probably why you thought Trent Dilfer was a wide receiver. SMH...

    We all post our OPINIONS here so you need to relax.

    All the "experts" said Geno would go in the top ten last year... So we'll see. But I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Texans have their choice of all these quarterbacks in the 2nd round.

    TB, Bortles, Manziel, Carr will all be gone by the time we select in the second.

    I knew Dilfer was a QB. You were comparing Dilfer's opinion to Brandon Marshall's who is a WR. It had no relevance.

    I pick on you, because your opinion is "ALWAYS" the outlier, and I would lay off of you, but the things you say to discredit the better players like Bridgewater/Clowney(because "he went to the same school as that kid from South Carolina that we drafted", that is the most IDIOTIC thing I have read) are trash. Keep in mind that 75-80% of the forum is in agreement about a TB/Clowney pick, and you have yet to give a valid reason on why you disagree with most of the forum. Some posters do post why they wouldn't take player a or b, but they have reasons, facts, and knowledge to drive their opinion.

    My opinion resides in the fact that your postings are garbage and lack anything worth reading. Deal with it. Stop being a sensitive baby and move on. You post to get a reaction, and when you get one, you get defensive. If you are going to play the troll card, grow a pair and expect a reaction. Child.

    Are you absolutely positively sure that 4 quarterbacks will go in the 1st round... What teams do you think are going to draft them...?

    It's a free country and people have given their lives so I can have my own opinion and don't have to go along with your opinion. But please understand that you picking on me does not bother me because I don't bow down to bullies.

    But I will bow down to Mr Dubious and let you make it :)

    I'd be very surprised if Football Jonny is still there when we pick in the 2nd

    The only reason Bortles is going #1 in the mocks is the experts think they know what O'Brien wants, they are trying to be smart and guess that he likes big qbs and cause bortles beat penn st.

    I would be absolutely shocked if Borltes is taken #1 by us.
