[QUOTE="porky88, post: 62051, member: 489"] Young is a much better passer than Vick coming out. Young is also getting higher grades as a prospect coming out. Did you watch the Ohio State game? Young won the game with his arm. The USC game says it all with his legs. He's def a dual threat QB. He's more like Cunningham then Vick. Now there's always a chance he could be a bust. There's a chance with every prospect but Young and Vick don't compare like people think. Young has better passing numbers coming out. Young is bigger. Young is .2 slower. Young is stronger. Young is more athletic. Young is more accurate. Vick has the speed and arm strength on him. His stats [url="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/ncaa/players/18950/index.html"]http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/footba ... index.html[/url] 3rd in passing efficiency.. 18th in passing yards. Add his rushing he's 3rd ahead of Leinart. 11th in TD's passes Add his rushing and he's 2nd or 3rd I believe. National Champion Completed 65.2 pct of his passes. Avg. more yards per attempt than Leinart and Cutler. 4th in the Nation. Threw only 10 INT's. Cutler had 9 and Leinart had 8. Best Trait he has more poise than any QB in the Draft Now I'm not sure how those numbers stack up to Rodgers' in college but I'm willing to bet their much better and truth be told Texas won the National Title because of Vince Young All those numbers that are concerned with the arm blow Vicks out. So he's proven he more than capable of being a dual threat QB and this post was also directed to the other post that said Young is garbage. Young's main concerns are his drop back ability in a pro style offense. His wonderlic (though he took advance level classes at a tough school and Marino scored the same score as him) If that’s too much of a concern for you then you have every right to bash GB to even consider taking him. To me it’s not much of a concern. If Green Bay passes on him it's for other needs or BPA with Mario Williams. It's not because we have Aaron Rodgers already, in my opinion. Do I think the Pack will take Young? Probably not.. Do I think he would be a bad pick? No QB in round 1 is never a bad pick in today’s NFL. Do I think GB should take him? Probably Not. Would I be shocked if they did take him? Not one bit knowing Ted Thompson. I think Young is the 4th option for TT. I think his priorities and this is just a guess. 1. Mario Williams 2. Trade Down 3. AJ Hawk 4. Vince Young That would be my guess.. I'm not ranting Young will be the next big thing in the NFL. I'm ranting in saying he's done everything great in college and for some reason he gets compared to someone who's no where near the caliber of a prospect he was coming out. I'm talking about the Mike Vick comparisons which just aren't there if you know the Draft. Sorry for the length of this.. lol.. :lol: :shock: [/QUOTE]
