Then there’s the other side. Same people who told us such things as: ”All EJ needs is more time.” ”Keep Whaley, it’s not his fault.” ”Great move putting Marv in charge, he”ll turn this around.” ”Russ is a genius.” ”Ralph’s forgotten more than you’ll ever know about football.” and my favorite, ”Just be happy you still have a team.” There’s plenty of reasons why, after all these years, the majority is farting in their general direction. DARE TO BE GREAT, McBEANE!

Just got back, I loved it, pretty damn scary! Ready Player One in IMAX 3D this week was amazing, but it's hard to say which one I liked more.

Your execution was fine, but Rosen to the Felons at #11 is just unacceptable. I’m waiting for Howdy Doody Esch at #22 FTW.

Good fit in Wisconsin.

This mock is the most epic of all fails.

After the past month or so, I don't know what I'm looking forward to more, the draft or the final trade-up.

If this year's Chosen One ends up being another EJ, you may have a clear-cut winner.

Top 2 movies I saw in the theater on their first-run that had the crowd rocking: 1. Ghostbusters 2. Animal House but I would have to say Pootie Tang.

Fergy’s not #1, but back in the day he was definitely in the conversation.

Poor Kaep.

Very nice upgrade over Sammy Decoy.

Close. Don Shula FTW.

Jeff Kinney.

I believe in the power of positive thinking, Bills trade up to #2.

Rosen, then Mayfield.

You sound like one of the chumps who wanted to give JP and EJ more time, they cried a lot too.

I’ll never forget Bob Lanier at St. Bonaventure, so !@#$ Chris Ford and !@#$ Villanova, go BLUE!

Try to find a QB that's 6'7" or higher that was worth a !@#$ in this league. There have never been any, not a one.

"Music to my ears!"

I think a “successful” franchise QB is very debatable.... but a franchise QB is pretty clear. He’s the Chosen One, no need to look any further. He’s not a bridge QB, you have identified him as The Man for your team. EJ Manual was Doug Whaley’s franchise QB.

Jets spent a lot of capital and time for The Sanchize to be their Franchise QB. Was he successful of (at the very least) making the players around him better? YMMV, but I would say no.

The way I’m looking at it, absolutely. Many, many QBs were set up to be Franchise QBs by virtue of the time spent and capital invested in them, only to fall short of being successful.

Minimum requirement to me for a successful franchise QB is that he is able to make the players around him better. That’s only the starting point though in evaluating him.
