I have a feeling that you won't be going with either in the Big Twelve, just a hunch.

How come Colt McCoy isn't considered a 1st day selection by some? I think McCoy is a late 1st round to late 2nd round prospect, not later. Gr8 or DB, care to play Devil's Advocate on this one?

From an NFL scouts perspective think Trent Edwards:
- Not big enough.
- Doesn't have a cannon for an arm.
- Accurate but not anything out of this world.
- Not fast enough.
- etc.....

He's a guy that does a lot of things well but doesn't necessarily excel at anything. A lot of people will counter that argument with "well, all the guy does in win," and while that may be true at the college level it means absolutely nothing at the NFL level. I have him projected to go on the first day if he decides to declare, but he has made it pretty clear to Texans that he's going to stay in Austin another year.

i think somebody will take a stab at him in the 2nd Round.
