we drafted albert over a QB from Delaware
no risk! great value! and we have dick to show for it, while that QB from Delaware - who threw for 189 yards against the Delaware State Hornets - is going to his 3rd AFC Championship Game |

If he is worth taking at 3 or 5 or 7, why isn't he worth taking at 1? He's the same player either way, and the players with the highest potential (supposedly) in the draft match spots on our roster that are already adequate, if not strong (LT, NT, OLB). Here's your chance to argue your point and redeem yourself from looking like an awful troll. |
I look at it like this, the draft is a crap shoot that either works out for you or doesn't. Let's take the chance with Geno and get another QB later in the draft. When we look at it we know that Brady should have been in the first round the way he has worked out, so the draft experts are wrong sometimes. I think with this new coaching staff Geno can be successful. All we need is to average at least one TD a game and that will be improvement.

Exactly. If we can just the turnovers from the QB position closer to the number of TDs from the QB, that will be a huge improvement. |
you are right Talking Can, Jake Long is the perfect example
if there isn't a guy there at #1 that you are absolutely positive about then the smart value is to trade down, QB or not we need a boatload of players and if there isn't a franchise QB at the top pick and you can get another one with similar potential later in the round then the smart move is to move the pick and get several good players Dave is right about there being more input to come... |

its so painful...this fanbase.... |
i admit that i don't know exactly where Geno should be valued but i'm convinced that we can get him (or QB of very similar value) later on in the 1st round and in that case it makes every sense in the world to try to trade down
that's an honest opinion and yes just one opinion |
Geno Smith will be taken in the top five picks of the draft.. you can BANK ON IT, barring a major stumble in the combines. (And usually good QB's rise throughout the combine process)
That is what is so stupid about this discussion. |

e.g. there is good value in a trade down to #5 if that team wants to move up ; looking at the mock drafts Geno isn't anywhere near top 5, not yet anyway, course QB's do go up as we get closer in the end it don't matter what we think and Reid is a documented down trader so the chances are really good that we get that result i predict a trade down and then an OL pick a bit later in the 1st |

Otherwise, I have yet to hear a good, valid explanation for why Smith is not a #1 caliber pick. I hear a lot of hemming and hawing and "well, I don't actually know very much about him, but he isn't any good IMO" and "he lost 6 games, he sux!", but I have yet to see any meaningful point against him made that can't be countered (to an extensive degree in most cases) with actual video evidence. People are just gunshy. |

(According to the draft value charts, the trade up value from AZ's #7 position to our #1 is their first this year and next + their second round pick. Basically, we would trade the second round pick we would otherwise pick up for Kolb. That is just way too much like how our last regime started.) |

Kiper just said that there will be ZERO QB's taken in the First round this year. ROFL.

Jagwads and Faiders are sitting right behind us. Who would want Geno Smith go to the raiders? **** that. Geno Smith could go to the Jags or Raiders that is the risk we will take him going to the raiders.
