Drafting anyone is a risk. Drafting a quarterack may be riskier than drafting a linebacker, but they are also far more important to a team. To be a consistent contender in this league you need a franchise quarterback, and it is well worth the risk to draft one in the top 10 where you have the best chance of finding one. If you don't have a franchise quarterback, you don't pass one up in the draft.
