What are the percentages on a non-1st round QB winning the SB? We have to be getting to that slim percentage with all our attempts over the past 30 years. Can't quit now. :evil:

LMAO I'm right there with you man. It doesn't have to be Geno, though I'd prefer him, just take your QB. There is one out there worth the first overall pick. Find him, draft him, ?????, and profit.

Andy Reid was the first coach in the league to realize that QBs should be throwing it 40 times a game. Now, 40 attempt games are commonplace for every QB worth a damn.

Knowing that, I think we clearly need to trade whatever we have to in order to get Alex Smith. He's a former first overall draft pick, so you know he has talent. Plus, he wasn't throwing a lot the last couple of years, so you know he doesn't have a lot of wear and tear on his arm.
I'm worried that Geno Smith, who is used to throwing 35 times a game, will wear out before he finishes training camp.

We need a veteran, proven QB who doesn't throw the ball a lot so that he has the energy/strength left in his arm to throw a lot. That's Alex Smith.

1st pick - trade for Alex Smith
2nd pick - Trade up for Eric Fisher. I think he'll be as good as Joeckel and we can get him at like pick 11 if we give up next year's first, which will be #32 anyway.
3rd pick - used to trade up for Fisher.
4th pick - WR to replace Bowe.
