Would he be a good QB to draft after the first round (if we don't get Quinn or Russel).
I'm not a big Zabransky fan. I just don't think he has all of the tools needed to succeed in the pros. Yes, Boise State was a great story this season and Zabransky played a major role in that, but I don't think his game translates to the pros well. If if were not for one of the most ridiculous string of successful trick plays in football history, Zabranskys career would have ended with him throwing a horrible interception and killing his teams chance for a comeback. I don't think so many people would want him if it ended that way.

Definitely not a first day pick, but I wouldn't mind getting him later. He's a coachable, and smart overachiver which is why those "trick" plays worked. That "statue" play worked because he sold it beautifully. Better than any I've seen before. I would rather have a bunch of overachivers like ZT and Welker that give 110% all of the time, than the underachievers that routinely let us down.I'm not a big Zabransky fan.
