[FightingIrishLover7]

I think....

Braxton should just get the heisman now... /sarcasm

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Not seein' number 20, I'm just sayin' . . .

 

[DillonHall]

Wittek? You must have missed the two games that he started.

I just think he will improve this year. He played well against us, some pretty good deep throws

Eh...think you're giving him too much credit.

 

[chicago51]

I have Mariota and Miller switched.

 

[alohagoirish]

Golson will pass Wallace/Carr/Hogan & HUndley to somewhere in the #7 ish range by seasons end. Look for 3000 yards--30TDs--23 passing--7 rushing--7 turnovers---500 extra yards rushing.

 

[woolybug25]

I think we will see Manziel take a dramatic step back this year with his best two lineman going into the draft. Both high in the draft, I may add.

Regardless of how good or bad Wittek is (I happen to think that he is very talented), he will be running for his life all season.

I think Brdgewater is the best QB in cfb, and its not close. Manziel might have had a great season, but Bridgewater didn't have two first round tackles blocking for him. Manziel is a scrambling gunslinger, while Bridgwater is a polished QB that is NFL ready right now.

 

[GBdomer]

I mean I disagree with it but everyone has there own opinions.

 

[GBdomer]

What are you judiging this on? Stats? Wins? Team play? Aaron Murray that high is laughable. IMO you can't judge QB's because what are you judging them on?

Btw Max Wittex? WHAT

 

[levicarvalho]

I forgot Devin Gardner, now Wittek is off the list

Right tackle Jake Matthews is actually returning.

Murray is not bad at all, his numbers are pretty good. He just happens to lose big games...

 

[Bishop2b5]

Good list and I think you're just about spot on with where you have most of them ranked. I'm not convinced about Bo Wallace yet, though. He has all the physical tools, but I think he still struggles with the speed of the game and making decisions under pressure. If the game slows down for him as he gets more experience, he could become a very good qb.

Manziel still amazes me. The guy was only a 3-star coming out of HS. I don't think most people thought he was big enough or that his backyard football style would be very successful at this level, but the guy's a freak. The game is definitely not too fast for him to take it all in. He plays as though everything around him is happening in slow motion and it's all ridiculously easy for him.

Agreed. I actually have Mariota over Manziel, too. Will be interesting to see what happens without Chip Kelly, but I would rank him higher.

I'm an Aaron Murray critic but he does put up decent numbers. With the roster he has he should.

 

[ChiRish]

IMO Jordan Lynch should be higher. I understand the competition aspect of it, and how poorly he and his team played in the Orange Bowl, but he was phenomenal last year in his first year starting.

 

[Grahambo]

Manziel and Mariota are too high. I'm not a fan of QB's who are a product of their system.

 

[GBdomer]

Having Golson above Lynch too is very disrespectful. Golson improved leaps and bounds. Lynch numbers were stupid good. Like I said I am not sure what you are judging this list off.

Yeah the last half isn't the greatest, but I generally agree with where he's going in the top 10. I think Bridgewater is the best out there, I'm not sure Manziel will take too much of a step back, and like you GB think Murray is overrated. Miller in Urban's offense could dominate.

 

[Grahambo]

hahah what

Maybe I worded it wrong?

Basically, I'm not as high on Manziel and never was that high on Manziel because he plays in a Kevin Sumlin type offense. Mariota at 4? Look at the offense he plays in. They are destined for terrific numbers.

As you state though, what is this ranking going off of?

 

[levicarvalho]

Overall play last season/Potential to have a breakout 2013 season.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

I just think he will improve this year. He played well against us, some pretty good deep throws

He better start looking off his receiver.

[Bogtrotter07]

Where do you have Keil? Seriously, Gardner is a little to high IMO, othewise, I like your style.

When Devin Gardner took over last year he balled out. I am just judging this one where I believe they end up next year.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Where is Landry Jones? Did he not come back for a 12th year?

You were blasting the OP and then come out with your own list that had Bridgewater 4th?

How much of Bridgewater did you watch last year?
