List every QB drafted in the last decade. That's who we should have gotten. Any/every one of them. There's no more risk in that than the tried and true method of thinking we are outsmarting teams by taking their castoffs and making them into starting QBs.

Even with the benefit of hindsight, I still firmly believe the organization failed for lack of trying.
To me it all boils down to fear. Back then missing which happens so often was so hard, if not impossible, to overcome. Now with the new CBA combined with the league being a QB driven league the fear should of been removed and a willingness to take a QB high should be a priority for any and all teams that don't have thier guy.
