Picking QBs that turn out to be no ones doesn't help the team, but all the guys I just listed were drafted after the first round and they've had a major impact. Take great players, and if Russell Wilson or Dak Prescott or David Carr or Jimmy Garoppolo is there outside of the first round then take them, but don't reach on guys like Matt Barkley because you just want to take a guy regardless of whether he's just another guy that will never have a chance of being any good.

I don’t think you have to worry about that.

The FO and Marrone seem like they have a good handle on how this team should be built. For the first time in a long time, I have faith they will do what’s best for the team. If that means dumping Blake, I’m good. If it means keeping him and making the off season about improving his weapons, I’m good too.

I wouldn't say I'm worried about what the team will do, but I'm talking on the board about the idea of taking positions instead of taking players.

Taking positions is how you end up with Fournette and Smoot instead of Lattimore and Hunt, and it was this regime that made those picks. It seems like it worked out fine, but who knows if we take another elite DB and a running back that doesn't have a history of severe ankle problems how it works out.
