Quote:You only have to look at the whoping that the SeaHawks did to Peyton early in this SuperBowl & the average stats of Wilson based on the scoreboard to realize that the Jaguars would be better off drafting Clowney or the best available defensive player at #3 than reaching on another QB hopeful that might turn out to another let down.

 

Basically I agree with Mike DiRocco's article.

I'm not opposed to drafting the BAP defensive player if they don't think any of the QB's are worth the pick, however as a living room GM I'd rather have the best QB if he's available there. Would the Seahawks have won the SB or even be in the playoffs if they had Henne or Gabbert as QB? Possibly, but I don't think so.

 

In my opinion, in hindsight, if the Seahawks or for that matter any other team knew that Russell Wilson would have turned out the way he did, he would have been drafted well before Bruce Irvin.
