with the #s that he put up and leadership which he possesses is too valuable to pass up. this kid has the potential to be a high draft (though he prob wont be) so i think hes gotta be drafted or signed and given a chance cause he has alot of talent

I think Colt Brennan can be accurately compared to Ty Detmer as far as a NFL Prospect. He put up HUGE numbers in college and will be an above average back up in the NFL, he can finish games for you and maybe go .500 in a few spot starts. He is NOT starter material, as many of the teams that tried that with Detmer found out.
I think he would be a great choice for Green Bay because he wouldn't have the pressure of having to start but could see some playing time due to Rodgers brief history of injuries in the few games he has played.

I think Brennen will end up with a nice career as a back up in the NFL. He could have a Tom Brady sort of story though (no, I don't think he is as good as Tom Brady). He might get the chance to spell some starter and never look back.
His stock has dropped so far for four reasons that I can see. He played for Hawaii. Georgia made him look bad. He didn't look good at the Sr. bowl becase of a sore hip, which leads to the last reason, he just had hip surgery.
If a team like San Fransisco ends up with Brennen in camp, he will have a good chance to win that starter job. Alex Smith will miss some time, and Brennen could show better than Smith.

It's been beat to death, but his mechanics are absolutely horrible. Add to that a weak arm and average footwork and you have Gino Torreta. There is an outside shot he doesn't get drafted, especially when you look at guys like Booty and Woodson probably as 2nd day picks, both of whom have much higher pro potential than Brennan.

I can't believe this thread has made two pages. I believe it is obvious Colt is no where near a first rounder.

He's got heart? did you honestly make that a part of your arguement? Heart is just an overcompensated term for "would you like fries with that". Colt does not have the components to be put in any NFL system, just look at his NCAA TD predescessor Detmer....furthermore he only played one team his entire senior season with a halfway decent defense (Georgia) and they blitz the snot out of him, and he couldnt handle the speed. Which is exactly what the NFL is..Speed. So if your ever in a McDonalds and see someone who looks like colt...well...it probably is.

Mark MY words, Colt Brennan will do nothing. Timmy Chang put up huge numbers in Hawaii and did nothing in the NFL. Guys like David Klingler snf Andre Ware put up big numbers in a pass happy offense against bad competion and look waht they did... nothing. Same goes for Ty Detmer, great college career, and while he did play some, he was never a force in the NFL... neither will Colt Brennan.

as a niners fan i take offense, Alex Smith has been craptacular so far, but to his defense his o-line has been flooded with injuries so there was never any consistancy as to who was playing. mike martz made two guys who were never drafted look like good qb's (warner and kitna). he might be able to do it for smith or even Shaun Hill, but they will not take brennan! plus they brought in O'Sullivan to be the 3rd qb, because he has played under martz already. they have more glaring needs like WR, Ol, DL, and some depth at LB. if they take brennan the GM and nolan should be fired!

I really like this kid, he is a stud...his line was not fast enough to protect him in the sugar bowl or did his coaches do anything to protect him....i hope he gets a chance some where...i think 49ers, Lions, Vikings, or even the Rams....the rams are prob the best fit because he can get some playing time but learn from a vet in bulger.
