If we sign Foles and Haskins falls to 7, should we pick him?

I don't get why everyone is treating Haskins and Murray like the second coming of Andrew Luck? There will be good QB prospects in future drafts. If they Jags need CHEAP good players at other positions of need. The draft is where you get those players.

If Foles is there for 3-4 years, then they could wait and pick a QB later in the draft. They need to get into a habit of drafting a QB every 2 years anyways. You always need to be able to trade them if you don't need them and they have high value.

People always put out this statement. If this pick is round 4 or later, then it makes some sense but even then only 3-4 years. But picks in the first 3 rounds are expected to be starters. You cannot have a consistent winning team in the salary cap era using up those pick by continually drafting QB's. No team will hit on enough QB's. Eventually the return on trades will never make up for the value of the picks you used to select all the QB's.

One of the best advantages in building a contender right now is having a franchise QB on a rookie deal unless you already have a HOF caliber QB in place. 
The jags haven't drafted a good QB in the entire history of their franchise. 

They need a QB more than they need any other position, even with Foles.
