Saban Considered On Taking QB

[wonderl33t]

top QBs in the next draft: Leinart (duh), Omar Jacobs, Chris Leak, Kellen Clemens, Brodie Croyle, Reggie McNeal

tate and leak? both are barely 6 feet tall. i doubt any team will be spending top picks on either one

I agree. As of right now the top 3 QB's are Leinart, Omar Jacobs, and Charlie Whitehurst.

 

[Dolfan4life34]

no next years top qbs are leinart, jacobs, whitehurst, leak, young, clemens, tate

 

[wonderl33t]

yeah Whitehurst and Tate also. Vince Young will most likely move to WR though. He won't be a pro QB imo

 

[Noodle Arm]

IMO Vince Young is highly overrated. Until he actually learns to throw the football accurately and decisively, I don't think we should consider him with a 1st round pick. This is just my opinion of course and I expect a lot of people to disagree with it.

I'm surprised this hasn't been turned to a "Saban doesn't trust Feeley" thread.

 

[Phishstix]

tate, leak, jacobs, and young are all juniors, so they're no garuntees to be in the draft. my personal top 5 seniors are leinart, gradkowski, croyle, mcneal, and whitehurst.

 

[SCall13]

oh well, if feeley sucks then we'll draft one next year.....there is going to be great QB's in next years draft

Leinart USC
Tate Iowa
Leak Florida
etc.

Leak will stay for his senior season. Might as well take him off your list.

 

[Dolfan4life34]

and mcneal will not be a good nfl qb the best qbs are def leinart and jacobs with whitehurst as a later pick in the 1st

 

[rafael]

I'm a huge Gator and Leak fan, but he isn't good enough to be a considered an elite QB prospect.

 

[ChambersNBoston]

Glad he got "Robbed"...I like Travis Daniels... we really needed a corner.

Leak is too short, he'll be another Shawn King.

Orton will be a bust, I'm really glad we didn't do that.

I did want to take a shot at Mcpherson since we didn't get Alex Smith or Aaron Rodgers but I question whether McPherson has what it takes upstairs.

I guess this will prove to people that we did actually think about drafting a QB.

i dont think anybody said that we didnt need to draft a qb but alot of people said (NOT IN THE FIRST ROUND)

I'm happy with the Daniels pick......epsecially the way things have played out with Poole gettign injured.

but I think either Orton in the 4th or McPhearson in the 5th would have been good values. I just have a lot more faith in Orton to succeed than McPhearson........at least had what it took to make it through college and succeed.
