Edwards might have all the potential in the world, but he sucked in college. He was always injured and while yea he showed alot of promise, his stats sucked.
 
Stanton is hovering around there. Edwards has been on the rise, so it's either one of them.
 
I don't believe any of this crap he might be posturing for a trade he has in the works for all we know.
 
It's Edwards

No offense, but what in the hell has Edwards done to be recieving all this love. Edward was most of his college career injured. Yea he showed promise, but stas do all the talking and they were real bad. In my opinion it is Staton who is considered by many to be the Third QB, so much for him not going in the first. On another side note, if we take Edwards Im gonna be very skeptic about the pick.

The same could be asked of Russell, who wasn't even on the same radar screen as Brady Quinn, or even Drew Stanton, before the Sugar Bowl.

I totally agree, I remember Russell totally stinking it up in some LSU games I watched.
 
That is why I personally dont think Russell is the best QB out there.

Did you watch any of Standford's games? Man, that team was GOD AWFUL. It was hard to watch because I felt so bad for Edwards at times.
 
I know how bad Stanford was, but he was injured most of his senior year and his Jr was not all that great. IM not saying he doesnt have potential, he could be the next Tom Brady for all we know. My point is that he has not shown anything but maybe a bit of potential at the QB position, his stats show a whole different QB. Usually good QB's make bad team look better, like Cutler did. The same cannot be said about Edwards. I think alot here are saying Edwards a late first because in all honesty you dont want the Dolphins to take a risk on him.

I personally don't think he's any better than Troy Smith. I honestly don't see him being a first day pick if he entered the draft this year and he and Quinn had their Sugar Bowl stats reversed (including the win/loss). If Russell had Quinn's numbers from that game he'd be a 2nd day pick, and Quinn would be the consensus #1 (well, he'd prolly still contend with Calvin Johnson).

IMO that speaks for Quinn's real talent and what the scouts really think, that SO much is being based on the ONE single game, in which everyone says Quinn performed HORRIBLY yet his stock only slipped to #9 AT THE LATEST (when a crappy QBs stock shot up from nothing to #1 overall). If Russell turned in that same performance he would be a second day guy (like Troy Smith is now with his bad bowl performance), probably 6th or later (and he WOULDN'T be a Tom Brady 6th)
 
I all honesty I think Kolb and Staton are both way better than Russell. I dont understand what is all the love for Russell. I know he has a freakish arm but other than that I think he is very over rated.
