I would say that is closer to every other year.

one future HOF and another very solid pick who some expect will be traded to the Chiefs; 2 busts and a TBD.

In 2000 they had bledsoe so instead of HAVING to pick a qb they went with a long shot with brady. From that point on there was no need to pick a qb high but instead went with long shots and got cassell. what it tells me is that even if you have franchise qb you still draft them.
