Quote:Eugene Monroe.

 

Baltimore trades Monroe to Jags for #1 pick.

 

this made me chuckle....

 

Quote:Missing out on Clowney, Bridgewater, and Mariota.

 

Things soon to be fire GMs do?

 

Thats correct, Alex. 

 

Quote:The first pick of the draft, if a QB, will not be the only franchise QB in the draft.  That's even if the first pick of the draft is one.

 

But the 1st pick of the draft is the only way you're getting that "special" QB that is unlike the rest of the QB in this draft. 

 

Quote:what i dont get is if we do draft a franchise qb, why would you trade one of your starting tackles? why make the offensive line worse when you plan on drafting teddy. it would stunt his growth. 

 

Because neither were a good option at ORT, and Joeckel has the higher ceiling at OLT. 

 

Quote:More often than not.  5 of the last 9 years.  And if you look at it, the best QB of the draft wasn't always the first one taken.

 

2012 - Luck, Griffin, Tannehill, Wilson

 

2011 - Newton?, Dalton, Kaepernick

 

2010 - none (Bradford? not IMO)

 

2009 - Stafford?

 

2008 - Ryan, Flacco

 

2007 - none

 

2006 - Cutler

 

2005 - Smith?, Rodgers

 

2004 - Manning, Rivers, Roethlisberger, Shaub?

 

Tannehill & Dalton are only "franchise QB" in your little world. Smith??? As in "Alex"??? LOLOL!!!! Schaub has proven to not be a franchise QB either.
