Quote:So if dave caldwell draft a qb with the 2nd round pick and he's a bust it damage his credibility as a gm as well because high draft picks are a premium. Ya'll fan needs to stop drafting scared and get the qb at 3 and take the same approach as if you draft him later on in the process. I'll rather have teddy bridgewater, brotles, or manziel as far as talent instead of back up qb aj McCarrons, Gabbert's cousin Jimmy Garropolo who plays just like him, or any other garbage qb later on in the draft.
Bridgewater and Bortles are not elite QB prospects. And they are not 'sure-fire" franchise QB's either. McCarron's and Garropolo's careers in college aren't anything to take lightly either. If Caldwell drafts a QB in RD2 and he's a bust, good for him, it's less meaningful if he took the right pass rusher or receiver with the 3RD overall selection instead of risking it on Bortles, Bridgewater, and Manziel who could also fail and cost you even more long term.

Ultimately, nothing is set in stone with any prospect. But it's also pretty obvious that the Texans and Browns, both of which are considered just as QB needy as we're, also don't feel as confident in these three by not making apperances at these so called "top three" QB prospects pro-days. If the Texans are confident any one of those three we wouldn't be hearing about them trying really hard to trade out of that number one slot either.
