I'm not sure if you're a former Olineman that has a stick up his ass, but QBs are more valuable than offensive linemen. Again, that's why teams fall all over themselves to draft the riskiest position in football at the top of the draft year after year.

Is there something about my posts you're not comprehending? I'm not devaluing the importance of a franchise quarterback. If there was one I was convinced of I'd have no problem taking one. I don't see one I'd be comfortable with right now. I'd be more than comfortable with Oher.

That's great. I heard the same things about Alex Smith, Vince Young, and Matt Leinart(none of whom I particularly cared for, and Young who I called one of the most overrated prospects I've seen coming out).
Some quarterbacks have it and some don't. QBs are risky for a reason, and I'm not going to be in favor of taking a risk on a player I've seen and have not been sold on.

It's definitely not foolish. I think you have one pretty good QB prospect in Stafford and then it's extreme mediocrity after him.
