This article about Graham Harrell made me incredibly angry. I understand the desire to not draft an air raid or run-and-shoot quarterback in the NFL (I guess). I mean, I suppose I could list some reasons: David Klinger, Akili Smith, Tim Couch, and Andre Ware. As one commentator pointed out, though, NFL teams don't run this style of offense. Except the Patriots and the Cardinals and the Kansas City Chiefs (assuming Todd Haley moves his offense from Arizona). Kansas City doesn't even have a quarterback.
The thing that blows my mind is that people would draft Rhett Bomar and Nate Davis over Harrell. Did you see Ball State's last few games? It turns out the answer to "how many times can you fumble a snap and still get drafted in the NFL?" is "quite a lot, actually."
Frankly, I could also make that argument about Brian Hoyer, but for different reasons. The thing is, though, I got pretty attached to Texas Tech football the last few years and just find this move strange.
