Jaj said:I love how people doubt these prospects and start lauding guys like Phillip Rivers, Alex Smith, and David Carr.
What's their similarities?
THEY ALL CAME ALMOST OUT OF NOWHERE....
Rivers was a 3/4th rounder before the season started, Alex Smith a 3rd rounder, and David Carr probably a late 2nd.
Jacobs would probably be a 1st rounder today, so don't doubt him. Prospects improve immensely from the beginning of their last season to draft day.
Phillip Rivers hasn't even shown that much this pre-season for the Chargers. He's not as incredible as some think. I laughed when the Chargers took him over Roethlisberger, who has quite a bit better physical skills.
Exactly....you can throw guys like Carson Palmer, and Joey Harrington in there as well. It never fails....there are always 1-3 guys who shine a bit brighter than most for the last year in college footbal and are drafted relatively high. Also see Chad Pennington. There will be another guys a or two to show their stuff and make their way up there...how about Jason Campbell? This guy was suppose to be a piece of garbage until last season....a first rounder he became. So although alot of thie is premature i can never get enough about speculating who our next QB will be. Lord knows we need it.
