>>407453 Out of boredom, I'm going to rate the QB prospects on how pretty much everyone knew of their surething-ness. 1 is no belief, 10 is Peyton Manning. 2000 Chad Pennington - The arm hurt him. 3 2001 Mike Vick - Oh, that's a good one. People questioned if he could develop into an NFL QB, but he had so much potential. His arm was good, he was fast as hell, he was a winner... 8 2002 David Carr - Mehhh. I don't know if it was the fact that the Texans were an expansion team and everyone knew he'd struggle forever, but did anyone REALLY believe he'd pan out? Maybe, but not in the forseeable future. 5 Joey Harrington - HOLY CRAP HE CAN THROW A BALL 60 YARDS THROUGH THE UPRIGHTS ON HIS KNEES~~~~~! 7 Patrick Ramsey - No, not really. People even lol'd at the time. What happened to him? 2 2003 Carson Palmer - Ooo. Err. This one's a little tougher. He wasn't "sure-thing" but people thought.. he only had one really good season and a lot of people were skeptical, but he was still easily above Leftwich and the gang. 6 Byron Leftwich - He was... uh... he was pretty trendy. He wasn't athletic, but there was the "potential" there. 2003 was a weird year for QBs. They were all muddled together except Palmer. 5 Kyle Boller - Again, muddled field. 5 Rex Grossman - He had a lot of fanboys, IIRC. Not to mention he was the "winner" of the group. 5 2004 Eli Manning - Lol. Yeah, you remember the hype. 9 Phillip Rivers - "Manning might be Peyton's brother, but watch out for this Rivers guy!" 7 Ben Roethlisberger - A Steelers fan is going to have to remind me. Wasn't it considered "weird" that Pittsburg picked him? He was the outside guy from a bad conference that rided on his big arm and the fact that he's hard to sack. 6 J.P. Losman - Lolman. 4
