The (Real) Draft Enigma


If you haven't already bought into the NFL Network's hard sell on Pat White, which we hope you haven't, then allow us to introduce you to the real enigma of the 2009 quarterback class: Rhett Bomar. Bomar began his college career at Oklahoma before running into trouble by violating NCAA rules. He transferred to Sam Houston State, where he continued to flash his strong arm and moxie you want to see in a pro prospect. Pro teams have to ask if Bomar has NFL skills based on the lower level of talent faced at SHS, and if he's learned his lesson from the Oklahoma fiasco. While we see Pat White as a slash-type player, Bomar could be the real deal at the QB position.
