Quote:Ditto Achilles.

 

I've had my say, I've elaborated on many occasions (including this thread), so it's beyond repetitive.  But those who disagree ignore everything that's said and claim the opposite.  That's what happens to some folks who insist their opinion is the only one, and everyone else must submit.  Ignore, ignore, bash, repeat.  This is exactly the same responses I got last year to dare disagree that Geno was worth the second overall.  But that's fine, I'm confident that, unlike those who jaw at my opinion, that mine is well founded.

 

That it gets under some folks skin when someone has a differing opinion and backs it up well, is simply childish and devoid of logic.

 

The fact that the Texans, with a new head coach (who's first move is typically acquiring "their QB" - especially on a team that most feel need a QB,) would like to trade away the pick says it all.  The reality is that his talent isn't supporting the unwarranted hype many would like to prop him with.  He's a talented QB for sure, but just not worth taking first overall.  If these artificial props were real and not fueled by such hype, there would be no question and the Texans would surely never be open to trading the pick.  They see, as many outside the amateur draftnicks and message board GMs do, that there isn' much (if anything at all) separating this crop of QBs.  They feel confident that they can avoid overdrafting a QB and still coming away with a franchise candidate later.

 

Some can choose to consider all those things, but others won't and never would.  Just like the ones who knew Geno was "the one" with our second pick last year and wouldn't accept the opinions of those who didn't see it that way.  So be it.
