McNabb
I recently contended that McNabb was still a top 12 qb in the league and a friend scolded me by saying he was top 8 or top 10.
Well, now comes mcnabb/philly hater the Sports Guy with his mock draft and this list of top 12 qbs based on an open lottery.
Not sure how McNabb doesn't crack the top 12. I would think it was partly due to age and the preference to go with much younger QBs, a la Flacco and Schaub. But if that was the case, wouldn't Manning and Brady be slightly lower and younger guns given the nod over them? how does Aaron Rodgers rate 5th overall?! The jury is still out on Flacco who still only has to manage games. Sanchez seems kind of high after one season. And by the way, did you know Tony Romo is 30?
Has Matt Schaub (East HS grad...Viking Pride!) ever made a pro bowl or gotten his team to the playoffs? Cutler must really suck not to make this list.
This is just crazy. And his general argument for the Rams NOT to take Bradford is also an unspoken argument for more teams to have tried to trade for a prove pro bowl qb commodity like McNabb.
BTW, later in the column he mentions that San Fran is so desperate to win that they should consider trading for Roethlisberger. Again, we all have to ask - how did the Niners not give up a 2nd and 3rd rounder for McNabb right now?
Also later sports guy suggests Eagles may benefit from losing McNabb - the Ewing theory.
He really hates McNabb.
Well, now comes mcnabb/philly hater the Sports Guy with his mock draft and this list of top 12 qbs based on an open lottery.
Digging deeper, let's say the NFL pressed the reset button, made every QB a free agent, then held a QB lottery for the 32 teams. The top 12 order of preference would look something like this: Peyton Manning (picked first overall); Tom Brady (sixth round); Drew Brees (second round); Philip Rivers (fourth overall); Aaron Rodgers (24th overall); Ben Roethlisberger (11th overall); Mark Sanchez (fifth overall); Matt Ryan (third overall); Eli Manning (first overall); Tony Romo (undrafted); Joe Flacco (18th overall); Matt Schaub (third round).
