Take a QB in the 1st round next year?

[RUSH]

If Detroit passes on Stafford then pick him. If they don't pass on him then go OT. Hopefully we get the 2nd pick and Smith is there, he would make a great RT. I don't think the DE's are good enough for a top 3 pick.

You don't use top 5 picks on right tackles....it's a reeruned idea and reeruned to even bring up.

I'm guessing your the resident asshole around here? You could have respectively disagreed and gave reasons why. But I guess there's always got to be one on every board. I'm not the one who makes up lies to back up their points, so you should be the last person throwing the "reeruned" word around.

It's been discussed 852 times I lose my patience after the 100th time.

Well I just joined, obviously wasn't here for that. I stated an opinion, and maybe it was off-base, I don't know everything. I come to places like these to hear different viewpoints and learn. A quick answer wouldn't kill ya, or just ignore me.

It's fine.....if you really think it's a good idea you can explain it out, I just don't think it would be a good idea, unless of course your QB was left handed.

Albert has done a very good job there's no reason to burn another really high pick on another LT, unless you are going to hire a coach who thinks running 5 WR's out into the pattern every play and going minimum protection is how you play offense so you need a dominant lineman and 2 outstanding OT's.

Let me get this straight, a RT is worth a top three pick but a RE(one of the most important positions on a defense) isn't?

Look I understand at times positional value can be overrated but if the guy was a OT worth a top 5 pick guess what...he's a LT.

If you don't like the DE's please pick another position, you'd be better off with Taylor Mays than taking a RT.

Taking the best player, even at RT isn't such a bad idea.

Some of the top teams and up and coming teams in the AFC (Pitt, NE, Balt, Miami, Chargers) play out of a 3-4. They bring pressure from their OLB's on both sides of the line.

Other top 4-3 teams now have good rushers on both ends (Tennesse and Indy). Since the NFL is a copy cat league more teams will try to follow the NYG example and put good pass rushers on both sides of the ball.

It isn't really a case of "just stop Jared Allen on right side" and we don't have to worry too much about the left.

IF a franchise QB or DE isn't available and the next highest rated player is a RT, it isn't such a bad idea.

I disagree.

I'd go top 5 pick on any OLman worthy of the rank. I'd argue that the interior guys are worth more on a good running team. They do most of the work for the RBs. The tackles are more for passing. Depends on your needs. You can bet that Titans and Giants think their guys are top 5 worthy.

The Giants and Titans don't have a player they used a 1st round pick on, on their offensive lines, so come again?
