Lawrence Taylor type guy. Same as the QB has to be LUck. |
Here's a post I made in another thread.
One thing that needs to be cleared up that #1 picks are more valuable under the new CBA than under the old one. You don't want to waste them. The reasoning that says "well, we don't have to spend as much money on this #1 pick, so lets just pick a QB and roll the dice." That is bogus. The #1 pick is worth more in compensation through trades with the new CBA. You forfeit more potential players via trade now than ever before if you are not willing to trade down. Look at the following non QB trades: http://espn.go.com/nfl/draft2012/sto.../trade-tracker Cleveland Browns: Acquire pick No. 3 in 2012 Trent Richardson Minnesota Vikings: Acquire picks No. 4, No. 118, No. 139 and No. 211 Matt Kalil Jacksonville Jaguars: Acquire pick No. 5 in 2012 Justin Blackmon Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Acquire picks No. 7 and No. 101 Mark Barron Dallas Cowboys: Acquire pick No. 6 in 2012 Morris Claiborne St. Louis Rams: Acquire picks No. 14 and No. 45 Michael Brockers Philadelphia Eagles: Acquire pick No. 12 in 2012 Fletcher Cox Seattle Seahawks: Acquire picks No. 15, No. 114 and No. 172 Bruce Irvin New England Patriots: Acquire pick No. 21 in 2012 Chandler Jones Cincinnati Bengals: Acquire picks No. 27 and No. 93 Kevin Zeitler NewEngland Patriots: Acquire pick No. 25 in 2012 Donta Hightower Denver Broncos: Acquire picks No. 31 and No. 126 Doug Martin Minnesota Vikings: Acquire pick No. 29 in 2012 Harrison Smith Baltimore Ravens: Acquire picks No. 35 and No. 98 Courtney Upshaw Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Acquire picks No. 31 and No. 126 Doug Martin Denver Broncos: Acquire picks No. 36 and No. 101 Derek Wolfe |
3 of those trades were top 10 trades, and how did they work out?

Swallowed against the run? Yeah, at times. Not nearly as much as Jarvis. |

Have to wait and see how they all pan out. |
What is the common theme that all those teams who made the trades to go down ALREADY had?

Sure as hell wasn't a gapping ****ing hole at Quarterback.

49ers took their QB in the 2nd round Browns took Weeden after taking Richardson Seahawks took Wilson in the 3rd Bengals took Dalton after taking Green with the 33rd pick 3 of those 4 teams are in the playoffs. Just b/c you need a QB doesn't mean that you have to get screwed on value. The Chiefs could trade down or they could trade up back inot the first from their 2nd. The Chiefs have a lot of options. They could sit pat and take Bray with their 2nd round pick. They don't have to get screwed on value. |

So you think the draft will go like this.
1. Chiefs (2-14) Geno Smith 2. Jaguars (2-14) Tyler Wilson 3. Raiders (4-12) Matt Barkley 4. Eagles (4-12) Mike Glennon 5. Lions (4-12) Jarvis Jones 6. Browns (5-11) Star L. 7. Cardinals (5-11) Aaron Murray 8. Bills (6-10) Tyler Bray 9. Jets (6-10) Ryan Nassib 10. Titans (6-10) Luke Joeckel |
7 out of the top ten picks would have to be QBs if you are the GM
|
That type of logic is ridiculious. You don't just take a QB because you need one. You have to consider value and what type of player is available.
I wish we had a real franchise QB available with the top pick. But we don't. That doesn't mean we have to take one. We have other options to fill the QB position. |
