Quote:I looked at Arron Murray and thought he would be alright last year as well. The Yards/A are crazy good for Mallet and Murray. I never realized they were both that high, they are both right near 9 YPA. I like Murray as a 3rd round pick. It is crazy that he will go that low, when he was projected as a 2nd I believe last year if he had came out.
Murray is my first choice, out of 5 choices for this whole draft choices. Love Johnny, but I think he will be gone at 3. Due to Houston if they do not do this Mallett situation, or what whatever the Rams will do.
So besides Murray, I have Boyd, Mccarron, Mettenberger, and either Carr or Fales. Boyd has "pooped" the bed in the Senior Bowl, so that might drive his stock down in the jaguars eyes. The only way they will take him is if he "Barkeleyed" his way into the 5th round. McCarron & Mettenberger will both be great IMO, but based upon the system. If Mettenberger is taken by the Jags, the fans will not be happy now, but later. Same with McCarron, I think AJ's best fit is in Dallas, and Mett's would be in Pitt (A bunch of berger's).
The Jaguars IMO this off-season, will not be patient and will not be more assertive, and will not be looking for patience for their QB situation. They have "small" faith in Henne, and need a prayer for Gabbert. Neither will last, but the Henne situation is less messy. He is the jaguars future backup.
Fales will get some love, because he would be an automatic fit, just like Johnny. However, he is underestimated due to not being a Senior, no sense of running, and lack of talen within the WAC conference.
Carr is the true wildcard for the Jaguars. At the Senior Bowl, and doin' work. I think in a strange reason that the jaguars are looking for a Senior because of Gabbert, the one year extra does make a difference. So besides at the Senior Bowl, being a Senior, having a high completion pct and a great TD/INT ratio is huge for the scouts at JAX. The only reason why his stocked plummeted was because of the conference he plays (Mountain West), and pooping the bed against USC. But he has a chance, not as much as Aaron or Johnny, but a chance.

That is pretty much all I have for the QB draft class, and my 2 cents for the Mallett proposal. *Cheers*
