Who (supposedly) has/had the better arm?

Matt Leinart

Drew Brees (pre-injury of course)

Classify it any way you like, by strength on long passes, intermediate passes, out-patterns, accuracy on any of the above, or whatever. I never watched Brees in college & only saw 2 of Leinart's games.

Only ask b/c that may be a comparison they're weighing with Brian Schottenheimer as OC.

In college, Brees was a very mobile qb who operated Joe Tiller's spread offense very well.

Just like a WCO, Brees relied on getting a ball to a WR in stride and allowing him to get YAC.

Brees was proficient at it and used his legs even more to get away from pressure and then throw on the run.

I really have not seen a tremendous amount of Brees at SD, but I think they go a little bit more of a deep pass than Tiller's offense. Certainly, he hits Gates in teh seems and allows him to position his body for catches.

that the jets are giving the TEXANS #4 and J.ABE for the #1 pick for LEINART..

if the jets are going to shell out huge $$ for a QB they may as well get the one they want. i think leinart is going to be a great pro i don't where all of this anti-leinart sentiment comes from. his arm strength is fine, he would have been #1 overall last year and he had a better '05 than he had in '04. his body of work is one of the most impressive ever compiled at the college level and all of the NFL teams have plenty of tape to see him make all of the throws. not only have the scouts seen all of his game tape they have probably seen numerous USC practices as well.

i still think schaub or croyle are better solutions cost wise but i would be very happy with leinart under center i would just rather see him perform at the pro level before committing a ton of $$ to him.

Schaub has played only a couple of games so don't get too nuts over him. Remember Doug Johnson?

Croyle is very injury prone and I don't want him.

I would trade up to get Bush, not Leinart.

The other day you were advocating trading down.

You do realize that POTW does not represent Psycho of the Week, dont you?

Excellent point, but I think you mean Rob Johnson. He had a few good games with the Jags and the Bills paid handsomely for him only to find out he wasn't that good.

I will give you the same advice I tried to make to Bradway:Pick a direction and stick with it.

I don't know what the Jets are going to do. All I can do is hope for the best and think of what the best case scenario is if the Jets stay, move up or move down. Thank God Bradway didn't listen to you.

That's the beauty of this draft...no one knows what the hell we're going to do. We may have fans blowing themselves up or we may be purchasing a new jersey. Going to be very interesting to say the least. Stayed tuned...:character42:

This would be an absolutely horrible trade....this team should be focusing on trading down from #4 to add a couple of picks and then trading abe to add a couple more. Too many holes to fill and a pro bowl DE with a #4 is too much to trade up to #1.

Trading up for Lineart when Cutler is likely to be sitting there at 4 would be worse than anything Bradway ever did.

If the Jets do trade up to 1, it had better be for Bush. And even then, I would not like the trade.

Now if the Texans toss in their 2nd rounder we have a deal.

If they did that, that would give Abraham a "value" of 1780 using the chart, which is just less than the #4 pick in the draft.

Without the 2nd rounder from the Texans, Abraham's "value" is 1200, which is the #12 pick in the draft. Wasn't he drafted 13th? (He could have been 12th, but the Jets took Ellis with that since they had back to back picks and th ought Ellis was easier to sign).

With that said, if you threw Abraham in the draft right now... He'd go 1, 2, or 3.
