Did Wilson almost beat out Mallet a few years back?

Remember hearing Petrino almost went with him. He will probably be the better pro.

Wherever Wilson goes, he will be the steal of the draft. I think he's the best qb available.

No. That was just fan talk.

No, Wilson was good, but Mallett was better at the time.

I like Geno too, I'm just still iffy on an Air Raid QB making it in the NFL. Geno can learn anything, he's a genius, but I think Wilson's chances are better.

we were always told it was a close competition but I think mallett won on arm strength. Petrino loves the deep ball.

I'm a Geno fan too. I still want to see how he handles a game where the defense can pressure him with the front 4 or 5. Maybe Texas can do that

I definitely like Wilson better than Barkley.

Wilson's mechanics seem to have regressed somewhat this year. Noticed uncharacteristic just plain bad passes in the ULM game in LR, and has continued.

It was more than fan talk. I remember Mallett's second year Petrino saying Mallett didn't have the starting job locked up in fall practices. Wilson was hot on his arse all year. I'm a little surprised he didn't take it after his beast-mode Auburn game. I think the 3 INT's are the only thing that kept him from taking the job.

It might hurt his draft stock a little bit, but the team is kind of breaking down around him.




And with the quarterbacks in this class, he's still gotta go early, and quick.

I wouldn't be surprised if Jerry Jones trades up for him. Tony Romo's stock is plummeting fast and Jerry loves him some Arky boys.

I don't see that happening. Dallas has a lot of problems, but they don't start or end with Romo.


If they don't use some early picks on the offensive line, they are stupid.


ETA: Seattle could use a QB.

Didn't they just draft the kid from OSU or Whisky?
