Give it to me straight. Is Eli that good? Am I so blinded by my dislike of the entire Manning clan that I refuse to admit he's All SEC and 1st round draft material? I just have never been impressed with Eli. I hated Peyton but always thought he was a top notch QB.
I think Eli deserves to be ahead of Greene. His stats are pretty good for a team that still struggles on defense.
I think LSU generally has better top to bottom talent than Ole Miss and should beat them every year. Maybe that's what is so frustrating about the recent losses to them. We were ready for Eli two years ago in Tiger Stadium and he impressed me when I doubted him (like Dameyune Craig). Eli came very close to doing it again last year but that Cameron Vaughn hit shook him up. Last year didn't end well but at least we won that game. Eli just seems like good college QB with great intangibles. He does have good WR's that help. I am, however, surprised that he's projected as a high first round pick and can't see him being anything better than an average NFL QB.
I like the Mannings. They are responsible citizens and good role models. They give alot to their communities. I do have a little grudge with Archie for not steering his boys LSU way, but I admire him because even though the Saints absolutely dicked him for all those years he has never spoken poorly of the organization. I think Eli is a good college QB. I guess I don't think he is great cause he's at Ole Piss. I think he is draftable, but first round seems like a stretch. Someone should right the ballad of Eli Who.
