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 agree. 
I'd prefer they drafted a really good Guard with their first or 2nd picks before taking a young QB, assuming there are guards worth taking there (I honestly don't know).

Yeah, it's always about the player, not the position. If it's a choice between another Cann or another Myles Jack then take the linebacker and find a way to make it all work. The team has spent too many years wasting picks because they think they can make a lesser talent great just because they want someone in that position.

Reggie Williams was the poster child for talking a position instead of a player with Roethlisberger staring them in the face.
