Quote:This is the ridiculous stuff I can't stand. I want the Jaguars to draft Teddy, too, but come on. 3 all pros at different positions, even without Dalton, is worth the #1 pick. Unless by all pros you are referring to guys like Andre Johnson who will be out of the league within a year or two. This team is more than just a good QB away from being playoff contenders. You don't pass up the opportunity to land 3 all pros for a single draft pick. You just don't.

#1 pick.

 

That value isn't even close. Draft two other QBs in 2014 and if they don't pan out, draft one in 2015. By 2016 your team will be elite with one of the best defenses in the league.

 

*edited for the typo of calling Tavaris Jackson an all-pro QB lol*

 

Yes, you do pass on the <i>Opportunity</i> for 3 all pro's because... things don't always work out like they should.  Now if Caldwell has a crystal ball that will tell him how to hit on every pick, then by all means.  But in that case it doesn't even matter if we trade down or not, because he'll not only know who will be available, but how good they will or won't be.  Meaning he'd be able to do the equal to drafting Tom Brady in the 6th instead of the 5th (or as early as the 4th) and trade down to the point where he takes him just before the Patriots do.
