What if Colt Brennan falls to the middle late rounds?

The scouting report failed to mention that Brennan's "negatives" includes being a massive douche bag.

Brennen is one of the most accurate passers in this draft. Given he threw a few ints, his completion rating is still over 70% for three years. I live in Hawaii and have been watching him for some time now. He is the greatest thing that ever happened to Hawaii football, and had to deal with the preasure of the whole state on his shoulders week after week. There were many times this year where he wasn't having a very good game but would still drive down for the winning touchdown. He can handle pressure, and he has the composure to drive down for the winning/tying score. He is developed enough for a pro system, especially a passing system (Jim Zorn's system). I say if he falls to the fifth or sixth snag him and keep him as our third stringer, you never know who will be the next tom brady.

I haven't heard much good about him since I watched he & his boys get pummelled by Georgia. But to be fair, there are a lot of qb's who are "prospects" that might not be as good. We really need to get a young qb to be our #3 & groom as an eventual #2.

I can't see taking Colt in the 3rd, there are too many good players available that have a higher probability of success. In the 5th maybe at best.

Wow, this is very different from what I heard yesterday. Colt Brennan was on NFL radio and the GM on before him said that he was one of the nicest guys he's met (this was over the phone, etc). I don't want to touch him, and the GM said he had some really big flaws in his game, but said he was a top notch guy.

You're not going to find a much bigger Colt Brennan fan than me, and I would prefer not to draft him before round 5. I think he has the attitude to be a good player. The kid had to walk on at Hawai'i, they barely even recruit and he couldn't get a scholarship... Anyway, the kid likes to prove people wrong and he CAN throw the ball. He's got as quick a release as I've seen out of a college QB, but he does throw some picks.

I, personally, think that saying he "throws a lot of picks" is a dumb statement because he also throws a lot of touchdowns. Picks are going to happen when you have to throw 50 times a game.

Not sure if you guys watched him in the Senior Bowl, but he looked awful. I don't even think he would make a good backup. He belongs in the CFL, not the NFL.

I really like Colt. I Never heard of this jackass thing, but if its true no way we waste our time with him. This top 100 in the draft has him last. If he turns out to not be a jackass and falls to 150 thats about late round 4, which I guess we gave up to get Pete Kendell.

Tom Brady was a late pick so the experts arent always right

I agree with you.
I planned my trip to Hawaii for almost 2 years, and because I did that, I followed Hawaii football more than I normally would have. Even when I was there about a month ago (I was even staying on Waikiki beach when they had their parade and it was a shame Jones wasn't there), I talked with several people about Brennan, and he is nothing short of a cult hero there. Not a single person mentioned he had a poor "attitude". I think people that are calling him a douche bag, or poor attitude person are listening to a rumor by someone. I just don't think it's true.
Brennan is a winner, and you can't teach that. Sure he looked bad at the senior bowl, and he is a product of the June Jones system. But everyone is a system QB. Doesn't matter who you are. Because Brennan flourished in Jones' system doesn't mean he can't do well in another system. Tom Brady does great in Belechick's system, does that mean he's a system QB? Manning does well in Moore's system, does that mean he's a system QB? Please note I am not comparing Brady / Manning to Brennan, just pointing out how these players did well under the same exact system their entire career.
I agree with Mauiredskinbarn, this kid has something special. He had many comebacks that it looked and felt like he would singlehandedly put the team on his shoulders and will them to win despite large odds against him. If we can take a chance on a useless Palmer, why not Brennan? ESPECIALLY in the 5th round!!!

Exactly. If we can waste a pick on Palmer why not Brennan?

I think people see him and think he's a "douchebag," however if you just listen to him he comes accross ok.

He'll most likely go before the 5th round but you never know.
