NFL Draft

Post by luckyirishguy25 » Fri Jan 22, 2016 11:40 am

Just came across an article, thought I'd share. Interesting to note, the author has Carson Wentz as the 2nd best QB in the draft projecting him to go #7. Has any FCS player gone this high up in the draft? On a side note he picks VA to go 7th or UD, due to his size, but does believe he's worth a shot.

#22 Houston Texans Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota State

Adams isn't even mentioned when talking about QBs. (I would think that does not bode well for Oregon's newest transfer with NFL aspirations).

Steve McNair was drafted first round (3rd overall) by the Oilers in 1995. He played at Alcorn State before they moved up.
Walter Payton was drafted first round (4th overall) by the Bears in 1975. He played at Jackson State University.
Jerry Rice was drafted first round (16th overall) by 49s. Played at Mississippi Valley State. Note: he was the #1 pick in the USFL.
Joe Flacco was drafted first round (18th overall) by the Ravens in 2008. He originally played for Pit but transferred to Delaware.

Those are ones I could think of off the top of my head.

With Chip Kelly in SF, you'd have to think Prukop will be on his radar. He's also taller than VA. It depends on how he does this year

VA getting drafted or not getting drafted has no impact on Prukops chances at getting drafted. Do you think Mariotta getting drafted the year before should have improved VA's chance at getting drafted. There is no correlation between the two. If Prukop plays well on the big stage, he will get drafted. Any QB in the PAC 12 has a chance of getting drafted. A couple of years ago the backup QB at USC was drafted.
