If ya can't beat em - join em! Has anyone ever considered a move to #3?? I invite you to reply below.

Good read, thanks!

Man, I wish Sal posted here. Seems like a great guy who gets it. Not that he's always right or anything but I always seem to dig or agree w where his head is at. This is no exception. Thanks for the post Yolo!

Its pretty clear there are two factions here in regard to how the draft is run. This has been established and discussed and will continue to be.... Yay

Bc we don't know what the field is yet.... unless this is just an exercise and another tell everyone who you want their qb to be thread- how can anyone make a pick/argument when no one can see their actual choices???

Good grief! Can we draft a guy 1st? How can this be answered before then?

Thread is like a bad movie. It starts out ok and you think they might be on to something and it will hold your attention.... only to have the ending be bad and confusing which makes it a complete waste of time.

1000000% agree. Hit the nail on it's proverbial head

Uuhhh, what? Who cares? He's not a member of this team any more and accordingly is no longer their problem. Bygones being bygones

Could they though? One was a trade up to get in the party and the other was essentially bc they decided they needed to draft a qb. When you can trade down and still get the 1st qb off the board it's not exactly awe inspiring. Kirby summed it up pretty well w his thoughts imo

Figured it was only appropriate to say goodbye to a topic that's taken up so much of my time over the past couple years. Can't say I'll miss it and I'm sure soon enough there will be a replacement - but until then....WHEW!!

Hey man, to each their own. While not actually offering something of substance at least you were original. If you dig more clicks to find grounded and well informed/new takes and discussion be my guest. More power to you! Me? It's pretty evident there are some EXCELLENT posters and takes here. Ya just need to know where to look to find them. This thread is not one of em. They've been doing it for years and continue to do so. Thankfully of course bc with out them it just wouldn't be worth it.

This is obvious and evident but does bear mentioning as you have. Theories abound and everyone has their favorite so inivetibly there will be some form of disappointment to varying degrees but no way do these guys cut their starter (even if only in name) and not have multiple fall back plans for different senerios. I'd be shocked if this wasn't the 1st step to get to point B and move that plan along in that they don't seem like the type to move unless there is already something else in the works nearing completion.

Check and mate. Ps- I'm sorry your beloved tyrod was traded. PPS-No one will make you go to the parade someday, but of course you are welcome!!

Right? Surely the op couldn't have thought this was an original/fresh post rather than looking 2 threads up or down. That said, it's got all the key elments of a classic dupe. The potential trade senerio (Duh..) The fan boy subject of the trade up The innocence/ignorance of the thread And finally, the invitation to discuss what's already being discussed in every other thread as if there is an original spin. Yearning for social interaction makes the fingers type some crazy things...

Tyrod lol

The only poll(e) necessary is the one I get when thinking about a trade up for a top an prospect who turns the franchise into a contender. I'll deal with the bust/whammie aspect later. No reason for a buzzkill on a day like today:)

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

So why even bother to try? (He said sarcastically)

I worry about 11 rep points in just under 4k posts (4 of which are on this post alone) but it seems you have really thought this out so I gotta give you credit for that.... BUT I fundamentally disagree with the majority of this. Getting a QB that works out allows as well as forces a team to build through the draft. As previously noted, drafting a QB means he comes FROM the draft. Lasting success is generally achieved via a lasting star QB who tends to make others rise to his level and can make nobodies stars. Fluke years aside, w/o a qb you are just spinning your tires. Many of the above points were tried both ways during the last 17 years to varying degrees of success but all fell short bc (say it with me now) we were unable to draft that franchise guy. No matter how great or poor the roster was, the lack of qb to put it over the top made it a moot point. game, set, match.

end thread God i cant wait until the draft is over so the daft threads and the weak sauce takes stop. Its always amazes me how many "fans" and self proclaimed "educated enthusiasts" are willing to come to a web site and publicly attach their name to nonsense. i guess there is always something to complain about - but if you could add JJ Watt or Aaron Rodgers to your team (both great players so credit where its due) but outside the 1 guy who wants to be difficult and different EVERYONE else picks Rodgers. Maybe the equivalent to each isnt even IN this class but ya gotta at least try for the right answer to the above question.... and YES there IS a right answer

Hahahahahahahaha did you really just 'NOT' dude?? Yikes Anywho, I like Jerrah, and I hate that it opens a hole but simple logic suggests if you have a qb who can just light it up and put up points galore and carry the team on his back to victory -the kind of qb who you move to #2 and CAN become a franchise guy- IF you hit on that guy you are golden and a hole could be a bit more plug and play. You seem to be more of a play it safe kind of guy, but I'm more of a sock of middling it for the last 17 yrs and would like to see a future HOFer playing the position again. If that's the cost then do it up with out a 2nd thought. Meanwhile, have fun with your Tyord or Keenum taking you to the Superbowl.... NOT!!!! Lol

Then half to two thirds of the fan base will be happy, and half to two thirds will come around. Same as every decision that happens. I personally want them to do whatever it takes for their guy (who I hope is Rosen, but if they are in love with another, they've dug deeper in film and are better scouts than I) and if it doesn't work out- at least they tried. It's always a bit of a crap shoot and even when it isn't, things still aren't a guarantee ah la lucks current situation. That said, ya gotta be in it to win it and I'd like a whack at a top guy rather than the next best like Losman. I'll be happier if he turns ELITE, but just trying is the 1st step

Only thing is his football iq? Respectfully, have you been paying attention to this year's SR Bowl and combine? It's not being hilighted often, but are you aware if his shoulder and it's history? I assume you've seen his completion %?? I mean jeesh... if we are going to start a discussion, let's at least try and get the facts on the tangables straight..

??? Why? Do you know Beane? Do you know McD? What do you know that makes this insightful in the least?
