I made it a point last year to read a lot of you guys thoughts on the drafts prospects last year and liked what I read so with the ones heading this thing I have no choice but to agree I am in. I will continue to keep reading your guys thoughts this year as well.

No. You want to bring in Holgorsen as an OC, fine. HC - No.

I don't want some guy who has never had any position in the NFL - ever. Coaching college kids is not the same as coaching grown men. Unless you've been with the NFL in some capacity I don't see you getting the respect of the locker room. Remind me again, how many college coaches with no previous NFL experience - ever - have gone on to success as NFL HC's?

But guess what... The spread is in fully effect in the NFL with several teams running it. It's as friendly of a QB system there is and it's a QB league. So why not adopt it.

Not the pistol.

I'm not saying the guy isn't good or won't be good or anything of that nature.

We'll see.

Hey - you're the one putting these wishy washy sonsabitches on the roll call list.

Phase one: Hire Dana Hologorson
Phase two: Draft Geno Smith
Phase three: Profit.

Money.

Like this level money.

Sometimes it's true.

2009:

Matt Stafford*+
Mark Sanchez*#
Josh Freeman*
Pat White
Rhett Bomar
Steven McGee
Mike Neel
Curtis Painter

2010:

Sam Bradford
Tim Tebow*#
Mike Kafka
Jimmy Clausen
Colt McCoy
John Skelton
Jonathan Crompton
Rusty Smith
Dan LeFevour

2011:

Cam Newton+
Jake Locker
Christian Ponder
Andy Dalton*+
Blaine Gabbert
Colin Kaepernick
Ryan Mallet
Ricky Stanzi @
TJ Yates*#

2012:

Andrew Luck
RG3
Ryan Tannehill
Brandon Weeden
Russel Wilson
Kirk Cousins
Brock Osweiler
Nick Foles

Clearly some years are better than others. This appears to be a down year. It doesn't mean there isn't a guy who will be very successful,
but I'm not convinced the top-end talent is there the way it is in some years.

* - started playoff game
# - won playoff game
+ - made probowl
@ - sucks sweaty mule balls

(left out a significant number of drafted QB, because there was no point in listing them.)

Saying "No" to Holgorsen is not equivalent to saying "Yes" to the tree.

I don't care if he hasn't coached in the NFL or not.

He gets the most out of his players and is one of, if not the, most innovative offensive minds in football right now regardless of the level.

Hire him as offensive coordinator in 2013.

Then he can be head coach in 2014.

Is that okay?

Wisconsin runs a pro style offense. It's not a college offense.

The knock on Wilson was his height. However, his leadership is what bumped him two rounds. The thing is that Carroll made a connection that no one else did... He looked at the o-linemen from Wisconsin. Every year they put out good o-linemen and Wilson played behind them. Wisconsin's o-line might as well have a been a pro o-line...

Exactly... It's way to early to tell.
