    Good one... Lol.. The Lemon Bowl.

    I like Boyd. Didn't like the bone head play but you live and you learn. Like Miller as well. Wouldn't expect either to be rookie starters opening day but they may could turn out well with O'Brien's help.

    Sammy Watkins is a beast. Is he draft elegible? Not saying the Texas should draft him but that dude has skills.

    What makes you think they will only draft one QB when we have no QBs...??? I doubt McNabb will keep Schaub around and O'Brien may not want Case and TJ either. Even if they draft a QB in the first round they may still draft another in a later round.

    So are there any other QB prospects you like besides Bridgewater...? Or is that the only one you have knowledge of...

    Boyd may not last that long.... Especially if a couple of teams who need a QB in the first don't take one in the first.

    Taj Boyd is Nfl ready. Braxton Miller is just another Ohio State qb...

    I don't know if Boyd is even on the Texans radar but anyone who ends up with him won't be upset they didn't draft a QB in the 1st round.

    Sign me up for a Clowney/Matthews first rd pick followed by a Tahj Boyd second rounder, where do I sign, if you can do that while trading out of the number one overall and collect some extra picks then you have done what it takes to win in this league.

    That's my dream scenario. Today I'm probably leaning Matthews/Boyd.

    Boyd has accuracy problems and his hands are too small. two things that are very hard or impossible to correct. no thank you.

    Biggest game of their year against FSU and they got rolled. I watched hoping Boyd would play lights out but he didn't look good. He also struggled against S. Carolina but had a great bowl win against OSU.

    Potential is there but probably BOOM or BUST.

    Of the QBs at the senior bowl his hands were some of the biggest 9 3/8" iirc.

    Myth busted, we'll see what golden boys like Bortles, Manziel, and Bridgewater measure in for hand size.
