Yeah, because there never has been a quarterback come out of a "lesser" program who ever went on to NFL success... Neil Lomax didn't come out of Portland State to become a star in the league...
I think that sometimes, the whole "level of competition" argument is overblown... if you adhere to that too slavishly, you're gonna make for a rotten GM...
But to be fair, you at least go on to acknowledge that the guy has some skills, and probably merits a first day pick...

Those numbers show he's a prospect certainly. But not to the level Carson was and I am sure some are drawing those comparisons. I believe you said 2nd round and for now, that's fair.

There will be enough quality QBs in this next draft that I think it's highly unlikely Palmer will be a first round value... but if he has a monstrous season, he could climb the charts... I actually hope he doesn't, maybe the Boys could grab themselves a steal in the 2nd...
