Quote:Seeing all this arguing back and fourth from y'all makes me LOL….... I like Teddy but there is always a QB in every draft out of the 1st round that will surprise everyone (Russell Wilson) (Tom Brady) ect.. What if we draft Teddy Bridgewater and he turns out to be a bust, then what would y'all say..Woulda? Shoulda? Anyway…..Derek Carr is not there yet but has the tools to learn from the coaches at the next level and be better than what he is... he's already better than his bother. I know Gus and David wants players who loves and breathe football…I can see that in Derek Carr.…...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNmGSjaPCWI

Well, sounds like you should know that top 10 QBs are about a 52% hit rate. Top 10 pass rushers are about 46% hit rate. 2nd round QBs chances of hitting are just under 20%, and less than 5% after that. 2nd round and later DEs are far better than that for hitting.

 

Granted 'hitting' is in the eye of the beholder I suppose, but if you're trying to make the argument that we should take the 'guarantee' of Clowney or Barr and find the anomaly of a Russ Wilson or Tom Brady then you are completely backwards. There is no such thing as a guarantee, and the odds say that QB early and pass rusher later is a much better gamble than DE early and QB later.
