Jamarcus Russell is the real deal man does he have great arm strength and a quick ass release. I would love to see him in silver and black next year.
Notre Dame is way over rated
no way quinn comes to the raiders his arm resembles a noodle very weak. also i hear hes interested in playing in cleveland. smith on the other hand i think is too short to play in the nfl hes listed at 6-1 but i heard hes only like 5-11.
Russell has made as much improvement over the past two years as any college QB I have seen recently. Weis said within three years that Quinn would be a top 3 QB. I have yet to see him have a good game (or at least one that justifies the hype he receives) from Quinn. Brohm and Russell are better prospects at this point than Quinn.Let me tell you why Quinn is rated above the other QBs. You see, the world seemingly revolves around Bill Belichick. Weis succeeds with Ty Willingham's players and is suddenly a great coach-the guy won a Super Bowl or two with the Giants under Parcells. Mangini brings back a Jets team from a 4-win season and no one can figure out how a team with so little talent can win 10 games. What people forget is that the Jets were a 10 win team in 2004 and have only had one losing season in which Pennington played a fair part of the season. Pennington stays healthy and the Jets play a last place schedule and what do you know? They win 10 games. And it is very easy to forget that last season the Jets used four QBs last season and were ravaged with injuries. They have stayed healthy this season (especially on offense) and they made a couple shrewd picks with Ferguson and Mangold. Either way, because Weis tutored Tom Brady, it is naturally assumed that Weis can make any talented QB a 3-time SB champ. Quinn, while a good prospect, will not be a top-tier pro QB unless he is paired with a couple top-notch receiving threats. Has Quinn even had a good game against a top college opponent? I know he's a good decision-maker and accurate, but as Quinn had one good game against a top notch opponent lately? Anyway, back to Russell. He is showing a great arm, the ability to move around in the pocket, and more accuracy than I thought he had. He's the best QB prospect I have seen that is likely going to be available in this year's draft.

But how can he when against top opponents they are always down, and HE HAS TO THROW and they know it, he would be great in those circumstances?
