Quote:Like I've stated numerous times before, I'd defer to Caldwell as I'm not a GM or scout even though it's not my belief he's worth the pick.

 

With the Texans needing a QB as badly as we do, it wouldn't raise your suspicions about Ted's prospects if they passed?  That would only be natural.  They are a team in need of a franchise QB, and passing on him would suggest he's not a franchise QB worth taking for a team in need.  Not if they didn't think there was better value later... which would be true as much at pick #3 as it would at #1.

No, it wouldn't raise my suspicions about Teddy.  

 

Sure, a team in need passed on him.  But if Caldwell thinks he's the guy -- then that's a plus for us.  Like I've said -- if Teddy's going to be the guy, I hope the Texans pass on him, and we take him.  If not, then I hope the Texans take him, or if they don't then we pass on him.

 

For me, the only red flags are when they get to the NFL and play.  The Texans not taking him doesn't mean he isn't worth it at 3.  I highly doubt that Caldwell looks at it that way, or any GM for that matter.  You trust your own evaluations.  Not another team's.
