Draft Projection - Top 5

NFL Impact - Brady Quinn is considered the overall top quarterback prospect in the 2007 NFL Draft. Quinn possesses the typical tools that an NFL team looks for in a quarterback prospect including a strong arm, good accuracy, sees the field well, and is quick to recognize defensive coverages. He also shows good balance when throwing on the run, although he does not posess the speed to be a running threat at the NFL level.

What type of impact will Brady Quinn make at the NFL level? Which team (s) do you see looking to draft him?

I have a hard time seeing Quinn dropping past #3. If Detroit passes on Thomas ( which would be a mistake) he could go to them. Cleveland could take him as I believe Frye is not the answer there....

Brady Quinn fits the Tom Brady mold. He's smart and has a good all around arm. He's althletic enough to avoid pressure and make smart plays. He may not be the top passer in the NFL, he won't lead the league in passing yards or touchdowns, but he'll be in the top 5 in just about every category, and probably become one of the most efficient QBs. He's a first round pick no doubt and I can't see him lasting long in the draft. If falls all the way to Houston at #9, they'll probably take him, but I look for the Raiders to take him #1

he is clevelands only hope.

I dont think he gets past Detroit. Kitna is getting old.

I don't think he goes to either. Too many ohter needs. OT to Detroit, RB to Cleveland.

I dont see Detroit passing on a QB that would hold them for the 5-6 years at least. I think they will make amove in FA to improve their Oline or wait until later in the draft.

If you were talking a normal, good working franchise, i would agree.

However, I think there is still bad feelings due to Harrington. I also think they can live with Kitna for a year or more. Other young Qbs out there they can draft to develop. In my opinion, there will be a big push for an impact player that will win games now. A solid WR or impact defensive player that has immediate impact. A QB that will be used further down the line won't cut it...imo.

There are not many rookie receivers that make immediate impact, just look at all Detroits former draft picks, lol.

I think there is a very good chance that Detroit would take Brady Quinn here if Oakland goes with Russell. I don't think that is the smart pick though. Detroit really needs to do the right thing and draft the Thomas.

If Detroit does pass on the quarterback position, the 2nd quarterback most likely makes a fairly big drop though, which is why I have Quinn landing in Houston for not unless there are some news leaks that show other teams higher taking an interest in him.

Houston won't take a QB if the rumors of Plummer coming to town are true. Why in the world would we spend 1st round money, plus money on Plummer and our huge contract money for Carr? Financially it makes zero sense. I see Houston taking a CB, S, or perhaps a running back with their 8th pick.

Plummer wouldn't be a long term option. A one or two year option tops.

But I agree with TG, if they do bring in Plummer, they won't toss big time money at another #1 QB.

I believe we picked up a couple of rookie free agent QBs after the draft last year. Quinten Porter was our 3rd string (technically practice squad) QB. I could see Houston trying to trade Carr. There are rumors coming out of Minnesota about offering a third round pick for Carr if they can't get Garcia. Carr to the Vikings for a 3rd??? - HoustonTexans.com Message Boards A lot of people outside of Houston still sees potential in Carr. Heck, I still see potential in Carr.

The first part of the year he looked great. Second half sucked. But Kubiak has already taken the blame for that. He was play calling to force the run. He wanted to push our decimated o-line to work the zone until we got some success out of it. That is how we beat Indy this year.

So, for what it's worth... I just don't see us spending that kind of money on the QB position. Shoot, we didn't do it last year at the RB position. I honestly think it is because we couldn't afford to. Not much cap room when you're eating a lot of dead money.

Wow...had not heard that rumor. Carr to Minnestota actually makes alot of sense. They don't seem ready to move to Jackson, and Carr with a real off. line, and running game...could be a definate improvement. Hmmmm.....

I thought Minnesota was changing their ways. A 3rd round pick for a bust quarterback would rival right there with the Herschel Walker deal.

Something I don't understand is the notion that Houston wouldn't go after a quarterback if they brought in Plummer. The only reason they would be bringing this guy in is to set an example for a future quarterback. A year or two at the most and he would be done. I don't see them bringing him in as a long term answer, so you have to have someone being groomed for the position.

Because I don't see how Houston can afford to pay Carr, pay Plummer, and also pay first round pick money to another young Qb. That is way too much salary cap space in one position. Now, if they do sign Plummer, and then deal or remove Carr....a young Qb is a definate option.

I figure getting rid of Carr is a given. They take a cap hit, but sometime you just have to face your mistakes, pay the price, and move on.

The chances of Quinn being there when Houston picks is slim, but if he is there, and they pass on him, shame on Houston.

They could always grab a QB later in the draft for less money.

possible, they could look at Kolb, but still. if Quinn is there, they have to get him. They cannot continue to keep screwing up, and I think Quinn is perfect for them.

Houston deserves a quarterback that doesn't run around with the ball in his hand scared to throw it.
