I fear the Texans scouts falling in love with measurables when the QB position is more than just height and arm strength. No doubt Bortles is a prospect, but I just don't see the same feel for the game that Bridgewater has for it.
"Standing on the table" for a guy like Bortles is justifiable in these draft rooms when you can point to hard facts like 6'4" and 230 pounds. If that's all it took, then we'd be talking about Kyle Boller leading his team into the divisional round of the playoffs right now.
