He still would have been a better selection than Tyson Jackson. Taking a 5-tech at 3 makes about as much sense as taking a LT at 1. Meaning none. You can get those guys in the mid rounds. You can't draft a quarterback there. Yes, there have been some flukes, but saying you can shouldn't draft a QB high because of Russel Wilson is like saying you shouldn't draft one at all and just scour grocery checkouts for Kurt Warner.

Drafting a 3/4/5tech who can't rush the passer in the first round is the worse decision any team could possibly make IMO.
