It is so irritating seeing people consider Brady Quinn to be the best quarterback in the draft. He can barely get by in college football. Sure he puts up good numbers, but its simple with that wide receiving core. Troy Smith is a much better pick than Quinn, some will argue that he's short, but with his quickness and accuracy, he could do a lot of damage to opposing defenses.
 
Congratulations, you've successfully proven that you know nothing about how a QB's game will transfer from college to the pros!
 
yeah, the arm strength, accuracy, great decisions, pocket pressence, etc are all because of his receivers.
 
Troy Smith looks like a good QB...in college. Brady Quinn (if you actually watch his games) you can see the type of QB play he brings translates to the NFL.
 
If Brady Quinn is there when we pick,we need to take him.
 
I see both Troy Smith and Brady Quinn as good QBs. I see Brady Quinn transitioning to the NFL a little quicker because he's played in a Pro Style offense for a couple of years now. He also has all of the measurables you look for in an NFL QB. Before we got Dante Saban sent some scouts to go check him out at the USC/ND game last year which has to mean something.

He has only really struggled in 1 game this year and that was against Michigan who will more than likely be in the National Championship or come very close. Against Michigan state he made a couple of bad throws but finished strong.

Personally i like Brian Brohm out of Loiusville.

We may be in for a long year but we could also be in for a long career of him throwing TDs to our WRs.

Actually 2 games, against Georgia Tech in the Season Opener as well. All he had to do was be pressured by blitzes in the first half, and he looked TERRIBLE. And we all know behind the Miami O-Line he will be getting pressured.

So Quinn is only good because of his recievers? Oh sorry i didnt realize Ginn and Gonzales werent good recievers, not to mention they have two great runningbacks and one of the best defenses in college football to keep Smith out of pressure situations. I didnt see Smith lead a huge comeback against michigan state, and actually i dont think i have ever seen smith lead a comeback at all. Quinn also has had the coaching of Charlie Weiss who coached another quarterback who seems to be doin pretty well in the NFL.... Tom Brady anyone? What are you talkin bout Xbrett?

You haven't seen that because he doesn't lose.
 
You dont see that because of what i said, his defense puts him in great situations, brady quinns defense is horrible.

I will also repeat, you haven't seen that because he doesn't lose. Smith knows how to keep his team in the game, he puts up 3-4 td numbers per game so its not like its all the runningbacks. Just by watching his games, you can see his pin point accuracy and poise in the pocket, as opposed to Quinn, who looks good when the opposing defense isn't pressuring him. The only reason Quinn has to lead comebacks is because HE got the team in that situation in the first place.
