Also not sure what you see in Petty? I like the kid but not 1st round like the kid. He is a big time project with some major injury concerns. He played in a Baylor system that as we saw with RGIII struggles to transition to the NFL. He would need 2-3 years in my opinion to learn the game and how to actually read defenses. I've actually read that he had to look to the sideline most plays to have his coaching staff tell him what formation the defense was in and what they thought they were going to do. Can't have that in the NFL. He also struggled against zone coverage. Teams will quickly figure that out so again he to me is a major project. Now he has a tone of upside as he has a pretty good arm, great leadership, toughness, and just all around pretty decent game. I would be willing to use maybe a late 3rd round pick on him at this point. He will go way before that though with so many quarterback needy teams.
Who you all wanting for the Raiders Idaho? I know I have seen you throw out Cooper and Gurley's names. To me if you want both it is going to take 2 1st round picks to get it done. Gurley is too talented to get out of the 1st especially with some pretty RB needy teams like the Colts, Seahawks (if Beast Mode leaves), Chargers, Lions, possibly Cowboys if they can't resign their guy. So I just see it pretty hard to believe that such a top prospect makes it to you guys in the 2nd.
