Lets get this out of the way now. I am telling you we don't need the guy. Until the 2nd 1/2 of last year he did nothing. He is a great Athlete, but we have our QB. Or do we? Well we won't know until we put an NFL Caliber line in front of him and have the Coach establish he is the starter for a full year. Not until then can we state JP is anything at all.
And why young? You guys will throw his ass under the bus at the first sign of trouble, I know you will. 'But ICE he won the national championship blah blah blah'. So? many have done it, but you don't see those QB's starting on NFL Rosters do you?
Matt Lionart, Vince Young, it doesn't matter. They will all struggle as bad or maybe worse than JP did. Why? Because there are just things you can't get by being a rookie in the NFL. Sit the bench 2 years? Yeah rivers essentially did that....how did he look last weekend? Like crap! Neither of these guys is going to the Steelers so they will struggle.
That all said, Vince is worried he won't go in the top 5? Someone is advising him to wait till next year? Why? OU is back on the rise and most likely will beat Texas. Texas is losing a TON of guys (OL and defense) so they won't repeat. can tell you now Matt is wishing he went to San Fran last year, Nothing beats being the #1 pick. Now he isn't even the most talented QB coming out. The workouts will prove this. He is starting to be labled a 'system QB' which is the worst thing you could be labled. 'Well he only won because of the TEAM'. Well yeah, mostly.
Tennessee needs someone to groom to replace McNair. PERFECT situation for Vince. I would work within the NCAA Rules and see what the chances are he will go there and think long and hard about making the jump.
