These NFL experts are wrong all the time.

32 teams, that is owners, GMs, scouts, HCs and so on did not have Tom Brady as a 1st round QB.  They didn't even have him as a 2nd round or 3rd round. 

At least one team had Chad Pennington listed as better than Tom Brady and so did other teams that took a QB before his selection.

In reverse there were many teams that gushed over Ryan Leif, Jamarcus Russell and RGIII.  Some people were enamored with Brady Quinn and didn't know why he fell so far.  Others passed on Aaron Rodgers.

Now these same people that claim that Prince Amukamara would be a shut down CB is telling us that DeShaun Watson is going to be the next HoF based off of a 7 game stretch.  Yes Watson will put on a show, but it is a little early to rank him ahead of a guy that has won 2 SBs.

I remember Dak getting similar love after his rookie season.  Now he is ranked lower.

Wentz does have good sample size and I can see why some are quick to anoint him but face it, the Eagles didn't miss a beat when he went out.  The NFL was already doing "What if" stories on the Eagles had Wentz stayed healthy, yet they weren't needed as Foles; a guy that isn't even on this list and is not considered a good QB, was a SB MVP with the same team.  So Wentz could just be a mediocre QB that is in the right place at the right time, just like Matt Cassell

Of course they're wrong all the time, just as are folks that put Andy top 10. If they were never wrong they'd be billionaires. It's simply my assessment that they have more credibility than fans on a message board.

Hell, I think Andy's ranked a little low and I hope he's the #1 ranked QB in the NFL this year, but I cannot dismiss potential simply because it is young. 

Folks keep bringing up DeShaun Watson. This question is for the board: You are GM of the new expansion Louisville Racers. You get to pick a QB who do you take Andy or DeShaun?
