If we truly picked best player available in 2004 draft, Big Ben would be a Jag.

Quote:I am sure there are many instances of teams having a quarterback as the top rated player on their board and not taking him. What was the last team to take a quarterback in the first round in consecutive years? If it was a good idea, why does nobody do it?
 

Before the new rookie wage scale implemented in 2011, teams had a legit concern with the feasibility of having 2 highly-drafted QB's on the same team, who would be eating up a nice percentage of that team's salary cap. IMO, I think the new wage scale allows teams to rethink about how they view drafting QB's high. There's no written rule that states that a GM can only have ONE shot at picking his QB. The whole notion that a GM's fate is essentially tied to ONE of his decisions, doesn't make sense to me.
