Doesn't mean you shouldn't wait till you have your all-star offensive line before you get your QB. The QB has a highly variable development cycle and a high bust rate. The QB also has the largest impact of any position on the field. If you get the chance to take a franchise QB, you don't skip it because your RT is inadequate.

And what if we don't get a brand new shiny RT? What if we just kind of draft around the edges and draft another Barry Richardson in the 6th round?

Stafford was drafted without the team worrying about fixing the line. The line he played under was atrocious. And even this year when he's been playing at a very high level. That's the same ****ing line he had 3 years ago!

Yes, I want both as well, but it's foolish and idiotic to think that a franchise guy can't work with the talent we already have on the offensive line if he has to. It happens all the ****ing time.

link? :p

how many games has he missed because of injury?

Irrelevant. He's a soft bitch Brokie Croyle with a glass vagina. The Chiefs 2003 offensive line wouldn't be able to keep him injury-free

i disagree
during his rookie season and his second season alone he missed 19 games due to poor OLine play
why have a top 5 pick wasted on a QB when he has to ride the pine because the OLine sucks and cant protect him..

Who needs an offensive line when you have seven zebras to protect you?

Link?

Also, you're forgetting the fact that he's playing with the EXACT same offensive line he had when he was a rookie.

i'm not saying i'm right or you're wrong, i'm just saying if i were the GM and looking for a Franchise QB, i would want Barry replaced.

You would clearly have to be insane to play behind that oaf.

You renting that URL? That would be a good website, for a blog/rant page.

And that's a smart idea. I'm just saying the mindset of "Oline first, QB second" is the kind of thinking that got us into this mess
