You need to dial back your opinion of your own opinions. You believing something isn't enough to make it true.

2. "None of the QBs are good enough to justify the #1 pick" accounts for rankings in a vacuum, where Chance Warmack or Dee Milliner are considered to be more valuable players than some QBs with pretty good chances at being awesome NFL players

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here, but if you're saying it's not possible for a guard or a cornerback to be better players than every QB in this draft, you're nuts. I agree it's not likely though.

3. It doesn't take into account the fact that teams who draft that high need to make their picks based on what's actually going to make their team better. How many estimated net wins over a season is that player worth to the team? Over a career?

I disagree. I think it does take those things into account. It sounds like you're not taking the fact that this one pick is one of many personel moves a team will make over the period of years that this pick will potentially play for this team into account.

4. On a similar vein, it only accounts for the bust factor. It doesn't remotely consider the possibilities of hitting on that pick of a QB or how likely that is to happen. It's ****ing ridiculous to think that Andy Reid and company couldn't make ONE of these QBs into a top 15 player at his position in the league. Draft classes of QBs like that simply don't happen anymore in the modern NFL, where gimmick offenses, shotgun, wide open terminology, slimmed down playbooks, and highly restrictive rules for defenses make QBing so easy to anybody with an accurate arm with a good release, okay pocket presence, and the ability or will to learn as much as he can.

Taking a QB that's going to be the 15th best QB in the league with the 1st pick overall would be a terrible move. It's very possible that the right coach (Charlie Weis) could turn Matt Cassel into the 15th best QB in the league. No thanks.

Don't bother if those were the best you had.
