Colt Brennan in the 2nd round anyone? - Page 5

Pablo · 12-24-2007, 01:44 PM

If the QB position is such a big issue to some folks, why not draft Long, Ellis, or Dorsey in the 1st in they're available and look to snag Colt Brennan in the early 2nd round? Last time I checked he was slated to go Mid-2nd, somewhere around 50.

I've personally watched Brohm, Ryan, and Woodson, and they haven't impressed me any more than Colt Brennan has. He'd come a hell of lot cheaper than the other three would, and he has all of the same physical and mental tools as the others.

I understand the knock for his system QB play, but that doesn't change the fact that he is accurate, or that he is a proven winner and may bring a good mentality with him. If we're going to gamble on a QB with a first day pick, this isn't the year to pick a QB up in the 1st round.

A far from impressive class, but Brennan has been largely overlooked and under-valued, he could provide a young, cheap alternate, and competition.

So like I said in the past, until we get a QB who is good enough and has enough sack to not allow his coach to **** up his offense like Manning did with Dungy a few times we're screwed?

That was Peyton Manning. Carson Palmer could also command that kind of respect coming out of college. None of these guys can. There's a reason none of them are considered No. 1 picks and an OL and a DT are ahead of them in all the mock drafts. They don't have the same credentials or expectations Manning or Palmer did coming out of school.

None of the three are going to come in next year, and command Herm to change his offense, and win the respect of that locker room.

In the end were going were going to have a solid product, just be glad Herm is taking blows cleaning up gunthers and vermeils mess. Just close your eyes and don't open them till 2009

I met Brennan's dad while I was working two years ago. He told me when Colt got expelled from the school it was during all that other crap that was going around at Colorado. He said the whole incident was a misunderstanding but the president lumped him into all the other mess and he really didn't get a fair chance. His dad said that the colorado coach got him into a JC. Then helped get june jones the coach from hawaii to give him a chance. I like colt and no matter what happened he deserves another chance . I like croyle but if colt is there in the third round I take a chance.

I remember the major questions Palmer had going into that draft...some people thought Leftwich was better....there was talk of the Bengals taking Terrence Newman......Palmer wasn't really a "lock" going into that right up until days before.

Really surprising that his dad would say such great things about him.....

Exactly. Everyone wants to act like Manning and Palmer were no-brainer franchise studs at #1, but that wasn't the case at all. They were highly rated QBs like the guys this year, but they all had question marks.

At some point you have to reach down your pants, make sure you still have a pair, and dare to make a great pick.

Self Bukkake usually paints a pretty graphic picture so I ran with it. D:

BigCatDaddy · 12-24-2007, 04:34 PM

Actually according to Kipers latest top 25 Woodson has fallen out and the list includes only Sr's at this point. Sounds like he could slip to the 2nd round. He might be a good value pick for us there. But I'm not really crazy about any QB in this draft.

Wait till they all workout, things will change drastically.

chiefscafan · 12-24-2007, 04:42 PM

Brennan is awesome he's gonna be good like I said I love croyle and still think he should be qbotf. HOwever if Brennan is there in the second or third we would be wise to take a chance on him.

Yep, especially if he has a good bowl game.

**ChiefGator** · 12-25-2007, 06:04 AM

I'ld pass on Colt. He's a "system qb" and we don't use any system here.

If we hire an OC that actually has a "system" I'd love to see him picked up in the 2nd, assuming he's near the top of the remaining players and we have addressed our O-Line.
