All of this trade back talk is ridiculous.
NOBODY is going to trade up to #1 for a Tackle. Or a Guard. Or a corner. NOBODY. None of those players is a game changer, and you don't trade up to the #1 spot for anything less. A QB is a game changer. If you don't have one, you're screwed. We don't. If Dorsey and Reid like Geno, they'll take him at #1. I hope they do, I hope we can go forward with our very own #1 guy and I hope he becomes the franchise QB we've always wanted. But I don't know. It may be a 2nd rounder. |

FYI, the excuse given for why Kolb couldn't secure the starting spot in Philly was that he got injured. TWICE.
Well guess what? He has the SAME PROBLEM in Arizona. A QB that can't stay healthy cannot be, BY DEFINITION, a franchise QB. So let's throw out Kolb. |

Yep.
Combined numbers for QB starts under Andy Reid NOT named Donovan McNabb: 38-44 record (.463) 55% completion percentage 112 TD's 94 INT's 70 QBR. And those numbers are inflated due to Vick, who was a #1 overall pick. Last edited by OnTheWarpath15; 02-22-2013 at 11:17 AM.. |

So we can't find a QB to do the job in the 1st round...
but we can find one who will be able to later in the draft? |

To say Reid found 2 starting QBs after the 1st round is pretty ignorant, IMO.
Kolb has been a massive flameout as a starter, and Foles has not at all proven to be an NFL starter, despite that he started in place of a flailing Mike Vick. Certainly quality starting QBs can be found outside the 1st, but their example is a poor one (or two). If we don't take QB #1, I do believe we are gonna have to trade back into the low 20s to get Wilson, Barkley, or whomever they do like. Best I see falling to #34 is Nassib, and I'm not real impressed. |

Here's the rub: While there may not be a QB that is head and shoulders above the other QBs in this draft class, there really isn't a player at any position that is head and shoulders the other players. If they are all the same, then pick your damn QB with the #1 pick. The only player that would make me change my mind about drafting a QB with the #1 pick isn't even eligible for the draft: Jadaveon Clowney.
If he somehow challenged the three year rule and won, then, and only then, would I say draft the best player who isn't a QB. |
