Quote:  How can the "value" not be right for a franchise QB in the first round?  In the entire NFL how many franchise qb are there as of this moment?

 

You don't draft in hindsight, which you're using for your post-valuation.  Follow your board.  You don't draft someone you've graded sixth round in the first.  It's asinine, even if it is Tom Brady.  Tom Brady didn't become Tom Brady until after the fact.  Drafting isn't taking a guy as early/high as you can... it's the exact opposite.  That's what makes it so difficult.  Not everyone understands the concept because it's counter intuitive, but once realized it's a moment of clarity on the topic.

 

Plus... I don't see any sure franchise candidate in this draft.  That doesn't mean I don't think we should take one, it's just that I don't see any worth the first overall pick of this draft (and perhaps not even our third.)
