kitt23 said:it looks like cutler to miami is getting less and less likely especially now that the jets are seriously considering trading down to get cutler. i would definitely take croyle 2nd rd though.
FinNasty said:I know he has had some injury issues... does anyone know what his injuries have been? Were they serious? or were they just minor?
BlueFin said:Both knees were blown out, just to name two.....thats pretty serious.
I think there is more.

Hostile 17 said:EDIT: I also agree on the drop-off. Brodie Croyle looks like he has all the tools, but our staff must carefully evaluate his injury history. He could have all the tools but never last an NFL season. Reminds me a lot of Chris Chandler...
adamprez2003 said:The main problem I have with Croyle is he absolutely crumbled in the face of a strong pass rush in the games that I saw. He did have a few good games to go with the bad so I am open to picking him up with the 2nd if he's available but I absolutely wouldn't chase this guy. His slight frame, injury history and fear of getting hit are too many flags to chase him. A mid 2nd rounder is worth the gamble that his fear of getting hit was due to the fact that he was a senior and had a payday coming and didnt want another knee injury. He's got a decent arm, decent smarts and if his skittishness is due to him wanting a payday, he's worth a shot in the 2nd. By no means should we consider ourselves to have solved the problem at QB if we draft him though. I would still bring in a free agent. My preference if we dont get Cutler is waiting till the 5th and taking Gradkowski or Meyer. Gradkowski at worst will be a good backup and Meyer might turn out to be the steal of the draft from what Ive read about him, though he's probably a 3 year project. Either way the reward is the same but the risk is less if you use a 5th instead of a 2nd
