Nobody seems to be talking about the thumb he injured at the end of the Miss. State game on November 9th. He downplays it but it's quite swollen. Try throwing accurate passes with a swollen thumb. He has other nagging injuries as well from doing things that won't be required of him. He should be pretty much healed by the bowl game. I'll reserve judgement till then but I watched his early games before Auburn (shoulder injury), and I was quite impressed. Also, both Aikmen and Bree's think that his skill set translates well to the NFL. And they know a little bit about quarterbacking. If Caldwell picks him, Carr or Bridgewater early in the 1st.....I have no problem.
