Draft talk

the NFL draft is right around the corner, and I'm always interested, mainly to see what Aggies and Red Raiders are drafted, and of course, to see who is picked by the Cowboys. T-Ray enlightened me today about an interesting scenario that could play out, according to the Dallas Morning News draft board.

As you are well aware, two Roosterbowl vets are on the draft board at the QB position. Graham Harrell and Stephen McGee. The Dallas Morning News lists the top 15 QB's. Highland Park/UGA quarterback Matt Stafford is #1, as expected. Stephen McGee is listed at #5, and Graham Harrell at #15, and they project Chase Daniel to go undrafted.

McGee is now being discussed as a 4th or 5th round pickup by the Cowboys, to develop behind Kitna as a backup QB.

I never saw anything out of McGee in college other than his mouth. It wouldn't surprise me to see Jerry take someone like him though - see Quincy Carter and Isaiah What's His Name.

He was very mediocre, but sometimes those guys do something. You just never know. I wouldn't be on it though.
