And yeah, If you're not drafting in the top 10 then you'll never find an impact player. I like your logic. Makes total sense. Kinda explains why teams like the Steelers, Ravens, Pats and Packers struggle so much with acquiring and developing talent.

Orton and Brandon Lloyd have played better than Cutler and Marshal.

And I said impact rookies, guys drafted between 12-25 aren't going to set the league on fire in their first year.

Yeah, I agree. I'd Much rather have the older, slower, less talented Lloyd than Brandon Marshal. Ditto on the Cutler/Orton debate.

I prefer weak armed, can't convert 3rd downs type of QB's over the strong armed, division winning, NFC championship game type.

And yeah, 12 through 25, those guys never have an impact. I think all teams picking in that range might as well trade down. Maybe they'll find an impact player in the 2nd like the Broncos do....
