    Not even a D'Brick option?

    Is that because their draft already has him going to N.O.?

    Yes...they were doing a mock draft.

    Bush went 1, Brick went 2, Leinart went three and suprisingly Vince Young went 4.

    Jesus...look at his horrible footwork? Maybe it just looks weird from that angle, but to me that looks like he has alot of work ahead of him...

    i agree... that is why he won't be succesful in the NFL; his mechanics are horrible

    That is what the full year on the bench is for, most QBs have mechnical problems coming out of college, Eli Manning still doesn't set his feet and lets balls sail. And he is supposed to be much better mechnically, Farve just c hucks the ball as far as possible sometimes and he is a vet. Put Young with good coaches and most of his flaws will be corrected

    I never said I don't think he can fix his mechanics...

    It is not fair to criticize a qb's throwing motion from a still photo. You don?t have the perspective of why or how they are in the position that they are throwing in. He could have been running full speed to his right and in order to slow his momentum down he is dragging his foot, or there could be someone just outside the frame to the left about to pummel him, etc? I have not seen enough game film of young to fully criticize him either.

    Any qb can fix their mechanics the only question is will they ever be comfortable throwing with those mechanics so that they become second nature all the while not mess up the mechanics where they naturally derive their strength from.
