2013 QB Class
This was posted in another thread by Milkman, but it got overlooked so I'm making a thread out of it.
I know, another QB thread. But this needs to be put out there for some of the "posters" here to see and think about. The top three in this years class are in no particular order: Geno Smith Tyler Wilson Matt Barkley Thats not counting Bray, Glennon, Nassib, etc. Who are all talented in their own right. So, many posters here want to say, "no not this year, this class is awful don't take one, there isn't a Luck or RGIII in the bunch", which isn't necessarily false. No there isn't a once in a decade guy. Which is probably what Luck was. Hell even more there have been 2 guys of his stature come out in the last 20 or so years. Luck and Manning. Yet there are franchise QB's all over the league. How is that so you may ask? Lets take a look at the last 5 QB classes top 3 guys to come out and get drafted, taking out 2012's class. 2007 Jamarcus Russel Brady Quinn Kevin Kolb 2008 Matt Ryan Joe Flacco Brian Brohm 2009 Matt Stafford Mark Sanchez Josh Freeman 2010 Sam Bradford Tim Tebow Jimmy Clausen 2011 Cam Newton Blaine Gabbert Jake Locker Look at those classes and no, you have to evaluate them at the time they were picked, not what they are now, we don't know what this years class will be in the NFL. I'd argue that this years class is more loaded than any of those classes at the top and from top to bottom. So, you wanna argue that this isn't a year to take a QB? I'll argue that its a great year to take a QB. |

We will have a top 3 pick this year. Probably, hopefully, the 1st overall pick. When you are that bad, it's not at the point where an ILB or a CB can turn you around.
IF i'm picking in the top 3, the absolute ONLY positions I'm taking are LT, QB, or pass rusher. They are about the only guys who impact the game enough to be taken that high. If there isn't one that rates that high, i'm probably reaching and taking one anyway. |

I don't think there are many people saying don't take one. People are talking about how good they actually are, draft value, can you move back and still get one, how far is the drop off from a Barkley to a Nassib/Dysert/Jones, etc.
Just because someone isn't sold that Geno Smith has the pocket presence of Luck and just as good of an arm and accuracy as RGIII (claims made by some on this board) doesn't mean people don't want to take a QB.
