No offense, but because it's ****ing stupid.

Why take a less talented QB like Nassib or Bray when you can take the best QB in the class and develop him?

Pass on Geno or Barkley, (you're not getting Barkley in R2) but spend a pick on a guy that needs more work, and has a higher bust factor...

Makes zero sense.

Sorry, that's just the way I see it. I think a guy like Nassib or Barkley or Bray, under the tuteledge of Andy Ried for a few years, would likely pay more dividends than drafting Geno Smith at 1.1 and forcing him to start from Day One.

Well firstly asshole. You haven't even watched Geno play.

You are just going by what the talking heads say.

You are flipping EVERYONE shit because you disagree with them dude.

And you can ask nicely out even be mean about it but I will not shut up about it.

Don't like it?


what are you going to do about it?

I originally posted this on another thread, but for any who missed it:

The "Why we don't draft QBs in the first" excuse cycle:

Step 1: Acquire another team's backup QB to be your new starter. Point to his potential and ability to be a leader and keep the team in games. Ignore his inability to WIN games.

Step 2: With a high 1st-round pick, insist there is no QB worthy of that high pick and that it is best to wait until later in the draft and get a similar QB at better value.
- 2A: After all worthwhile QBs go off the board between 1st and 2nd round picks, again point to value and draft BPA.
- 2B: Continue 2A until drafting a Ricky Stanzi/Pat Barnes in Round 5 or later

Step 3: Say you will wait until next year to draft a QB in the 1st and develop a franchise guy.

Step 4: Slog to somewhere between 7-10 wins and talk up how "competitive" your season was and how "close" the team is.

Step 5: When next year comes, watch in feigned dismay as all the "good" QBs go off the board before your pick. Sigh, sell "BPA available" and draft for that, saying "We're too close to winning something big to reach on a QB at this pick. Other needs must be addressed. We'll get a similar QB later at a better value."
- Step 5a: Again watch in dismay as no similar QBs are available by the next pick. Again draft BPA.
- Step 5B: Rinse and repeat 5A until eventually arriving at 2B.

Step 6: Talk up previously acquired backup QB, now-starter and how much talent you've added in the draft around him. Reference "weapons" and "chunks."

Step 7: Repeat Steps 5-6 for 2-3 more years, then reset at Step 1.

who had said start Geno day one here?


Everyone in this thread understands Alex is going to start this year.


You are making an argument that doesn't exist

I'm not sure they can stop doing it. I think it's a part of their blood oath.

Jesus Christ, dude - he wouldn't start from Day One. They wasted a pick on Alex Smith.

He can sit for a year. Wouldn't be the first QB taken high in the draft to do so.

If you're going to develop a guy, develop the BEST guy. Not some slapdick.

And I don't see why too need to make it personal dude.

But I guess that's the way you like it

This quarterback class is terrible!

No QB worth No. 1 overall!

Better off spending No. 32 overall on the 4th or 5th guy!

Better off spending No. 61 overall on the 7th or 8th best guy!

Beat me to it.

Right. I'm lying.

JFC.

And you are dumber than ****.

Really? Where have I done that in this thread? Where have I personally called anyone out for their opinion on Geno Smith?

Well, I guess I'll do exactly what you accused me of doing: I'll flip you a massive amount of shit. Deal?

Jesus. This is spot-****ing-on.

Rep.

Yeah that one year makes a huge difference

**** you, Jason. You made it personal when you accused me of lying, Asshole.

Go stick a tie rod up your ass.

Compensation wise a 1st and a 2nd is NOTHING when it comes to QB's. Hell we get the vet mentor AND the best QB in the class for that...The Faid got Carson Palmer.
