...because he's overrrated. Look at his record in bowl games and against top-10 opponents. The guy does not elevate his play in big games. Major caveat IMO! Quinn is one of those guys who scouts love because he has everything you want in a QB physically. He's a Notre Dame product so he's utlra-hyped and he played for a coach with major NFL experience, so everyone will think Quinn is NFL-ready. I think he is poised to be one of the biggest QB-busts of the last ten years.
Oakland will look at the top offensive picks, which will include Calvin Johnson.. They have so many needs on offense that it's hard to say who they'll pick first. I was thinking Brady Quinn... but after the Sugar Bowl, the Turds may be rethinking that option.
Quinn won't be terrible. He won't be a Ryan Leaf type bust. But I have my serious doubts as to whether he'll be consistent or whether he'll have that "it" factor QB's need to win big games. I'm thinking his career will somewhat mirror what we've seen from Eli Manning so far. There will be times when he looks good and fans will get all excited but as time goes on they'll realize he is simply inadequate as a big-time QB in the NFL.
The thing that's really sweet is that any young QB taken by the Raiders has probably a 50% greater chance of being a bust than if he was taken by most any other team. They are in such disarray right now...

I doubt it. Mr.davis wanted vince young and was going to trade the whole draft for him but the GM talked him out of it. our deaft will look like this. raiders hire steve sarkisan Asst HC at USC/QBs coach or josh mcdaniels the pats OC we trade moss to miami for a second 1. jamarcus russel QB 2. zach miller TE 2. brandon merriweather FS 3. steve smith WR compensation for c-wood 3. RB darius walker FA we are 30 mil under the cap kaberr bajilla milla DE OT marc columbo Center Shaun o'hara resign terdell sands/tommy kelly/reshard lee
Its down too the pats OC josh mcdaniels and steve sarkisan the Asst head coach and qbs coach from USC.
Zach Miller in the early second would be HUGE for the raiders. I wasn't even thinking about how they have the first pick in the 2nd round... there is going to be some major talent there. Hopefully for you they won't blow the pick on some retard
I like McDaniels. If I had to choose, I'd pick someone with some NFL experience, versus a college coach. I just think of Saban, Carroll, Spurrier, etc.. College to NFL doesn't translate very well.
