alright cheif, you think that reggie bush is the best player in the pac 10? i wouldn’t totally disagree with you about that. but, finding a true nfl quarterback for the nfl is much, much tougher than finding a good running back. history has shown that great rb’s often come from deeper than the first round in the draft. if leinert would’ve come out this year, he would’ve been the #1 pick. he has greater player strengths than carson palmer and his physical size is major. and i think we’ve all seen how well palmer has done. i expect the same from leinert and actually see him being better than palmer over time. drafting a cal quarterback is insane at this point. and that’s what the packers have done. are you telling me that if the packers pick first that they should take reggie bush? that’ll go over very well with the cheeseheads i’m sure.

to be a number one running back for almost any nfl team means you’re pretty great.

Cool. Ribbons for everybody, then.
Would you want J.J. Arrington playing on your team? I wouldn't. I guess he's still great.
