Quote:Mettenberger has a cannon but he's a tree in the pocket with bad knees at 22.  Savage is going to be another Matt Cassel...glimpses of something that could be good never quite gets there.  As long as the Texans don't get Winston I'll be happy.  I think Mariota is going to be another Oregon standout who is a product of the system and fizzles in the NFL.

 

Oh crap, that's it.. Titans need to go ahead and cut Mettenberger, Texans need to do the same with Savage.. I bet they could even trade him straight up for Cassel and still get a pick back at this point, because Rooster says so.

 

Now on to reality.

 

It may not show this year, but this division is stockpiled with ripe young talent at the QB position.  Bortles has played great, which is the reason why O'Brien targeted him..and the reason why I'm not too worried about Savage.. (the other guy he targeted), He's going to be a player.  He's raw, but he definitely looks the part, has the talent, and a huge arm (strongest arm in his class).  Remember there were high profile QBs on the board in multiple rounds that Houston just let go by, it's not like they just settled on this pick.  They liked Tom Savage and I'm starting to see why.  They aren't going to throw him out there just yet, but I can definitely see why they drafted him. The guy has talent.  They only reason why he fell so low was lack in playing time.. he has first round talent.
