God danm! He will never stop whoring until he is gone! I was on the fence about keeping him, but this just sealed my vote. He is just like Bob in the movie "What about Bob". "HE NEVER GOES AWAY!"

Pure and simple...if a qb is worth the 20th pick in the draft, he is worth the top pick...shit, it's starting to look like if you are worth a top 40 pick that you are worth a top five pick.
Rodgers, Kaepernick and Flacco are great examples of this. When you need a qb, there is no such thing as a reach...you get the best guy you can and do everything you can to help him succeed. |

Kyle Orton is a great example of how a qb can change a team. Average at best qb probably takes this team to the playoffs in 2011 had he played more games.

People forget that continuity has a ton to do with success in football, not only from the coaching standpoint, but your signal caller with that coaching staff. We need to get a guy in that hasn't peaked yet and can grow with the system our new FO is establishing. Waiting a year puts everything on hold. |

You list players that have been successful. There is a huge list of players that this attitude would not work for.

Players at every position bust. Over the last few years, qbs bust far less than other positions. Especially DL.

Just trying to say you dont draft a player just because. No matter how bad the need. Teams get into trouble over reaching. Initially, ill trust whatever decision Reid/Dorsey make.

You are correct DeBerg. Doesn't mean we have to like it but it is the reality how franchises look at it. Good franchises don't knee jerk and reach even if it is a desperate need. If they don't deem there to be a elite QB to take at #1, they won't reach over other more highly rated prospects.

I can understand the reach statement if we were drafting 10th. Let's say there are three QB's off the board. You don't just draft a QB just because in that situation because you might believe none of them are worth it. Someone is worth the number 1 pick. It's the FO's job to figure out who that is and draft them. No matter where they're expected to go (within reason).
