Mike Mayock comments on top 3 QBs.
 

Out of the 3 top qb's comming into the draft who can you see as the biggest RISK pick Bradford,Mccoy,Clausen?

Mike Mayock, NFL Network
Hey Fred, interesting question. I like Jimmy Clausen, but I see him as the biggest risk. Even though he comes out of a pro-style offense. Bradford is very, very solid. And I think McCoy is a little bit mroe of a developmental play, but easily the best athlete of the three. Clausen, for me, needs to be more consistent in the pocket and needs to make more consistent throws.


So, Mayock thinks Clausen is a bigger risk/bust potential than Bradford and McCoy.

wtf?

Did this guy only watch Clausen's freshman and sophomore tape? He completed nearly 70% of his passes this past year, how much more consistent does he need to be?

Not to mention he played 3/4 of the year with a screwed up foot.

Mayock also commented that Flacco was a 2nd round prospect, but suddenly changed his tune when he got "inside info" on the team's interested in him. I'd take his QB evaluations with a grain of salt.

Why is McCoy even in this conversation?

Because most experts have him rated as a top 3 QB... regardless of the CP opinion of him

Colt McCoy being 3rd should tell everyone how brutal this QB class is.

I would have to agree that Clausen is the biggest risk value wise. Clausen will be a top 10 pick most likely, while McCoy is probably a 3rd or 4th round pick, therefore if he sucks the risk potential is not nearly as high. I like Bradford the most out of this class. I like Clausen 2nd, and I can't decide between Pike or Tebow as my 3rd best QB this year. I really do not like McCoy as an NFL QB.

This is a very weak QB class. Luckily for KC that is not a position of serious need, and positions like Safety are overflowing with talent.

That's arguable if it's a position of need or not, we just know we won't be draft one.

That's true. I was picky with my word usage by saying "serious need".

Next year will be a much better class for both QB and top tier OT... whicfh is perfect for us... by next year we will know exactly what we have in Cassel and Albert and can hopefully get good value with our (likely) top 10 pick

If we're picking top 10 next year we better be picking AJ Green or Julio Jones.

I remember when these guys came out of H.S. Both were incredible athletes and I couldn't pick which one would have the better college career. Both have problems, but if we draft Tate or another top 5 WR this year I don't know if Jones or Green will be a must.

btw, if Albert doesn't improve significantly (meaning, play like he did the last couple of games) then I have no problem picking an OT with our first... I'd really like to see if Nate Solder keeps improving and if his frame can handle anymore weight (6'9" and 305 is a bit light for me)
