I agree with most of your QB breakdown, but I was actually thinking of taking Kitna in later rounds. I think Martz can get him some good numbers, and he's performed well when he was the starter for the Bengals. I do really like Delhomee, Hasselbeck, and Brady as well as the obvious Peyton Manning. It's a toss up for be between Palmer and Green. I think the Bengals as a team will come back down to earth next year. They'll have a Chief like season and finish somewhere around .500. I don't see Green getting the same type of numbers that he did with Saunders in the booth.

That's why I didn't put green in my top 5, but I do think he'll improve on last year's modest TD numbers. Even if Cincy drops down to .500 I think their offense will still be robust, which in my mind won't really be all that much of a detriment to Palmer's numbers. Kitna *could* be a good choice, and I know that Martz is very QB friendly, but living near Detroit I have a hard time believing that the fans out here won't start to turn on Kitna should he run into trouble. But here is the real problem--they have no receivers--Rogers is playing with the third team, Mike Williams got sent home from camp for acting like a dick, and Roy Williams "plays when he wants to play". Their WR core have great credentials but really lack in production and heart.
