Quote:my thread is back from the dead.  fast forward a few months since I started this and I still feel the same about him.  Of all the potential 3rd day draft picks, I like this guy the most.  More and more videos of him have come out so I've been able to watch more and you definitely can see some red flags.  Doesnt do great in pressure and takes too much sacks.  But obviously anyone you find on day 3 is going to have issues.  And you can probably write some of that off to his lack of experience.  I still think from a physical standpoint, he is better than Teddy, Manziel, and Bortles.  Has the size and the big time arm.  Obviously the odds of him turning into a quality NFL starter are slim, but thats true of every QB taken 4th round and beyond.  But I'd rather take him than Murray or Fales or anyone else taken late.

 

Saying that I've seen Savage's name moving up mock drafts.  a couple months back you wouldnt see him on there.  Then you started seeing him 5th or 6th round.  And then Mel Kiper's latest mock has him in the 3rd.  Wouldnt surprise me to see a team become as interested as I am and reach a little.
