He's a little bit of a smaller guy, a little bit more of a route runner.
I think when you look at the kinds of receivers that Mike McCarthy has used over his career, he probably fits that mold even better.

Bud Clark from TCU.

You know, I don't know.
I mean, I think how much Mike McCarthy has already said about Will Howard.
I've always kind of believed it's really hard to develop two quarterbacks at the same time.
You know, those reps are precious resources.

I don't know that I like Nussmeier's upside significantly more than Howard's anyway.
I mean, he just feels like a guy who's probably a backup quarterback in the NFL.
Not that I don't think that about Howard, but I think he does, because of his size, does have a little bit more of like a starter's profile.

I mean, obviously his father is the offensive coordinator of the Northern Saints.
Scott Tolzien is the quarterback's coach of the Saints.
