People want to say gabbert is the pick and I for one is going to give him a pass base on the fact his situation here made it hard for him to succeed. Owner selling the team which made del rio to hire and retain unqualified coaches, del rio threw him into the fire knowing that he wasn't ready but wanted to save his own butt. Coordinators who never ran an offense for what he do best like other qb prospects in his peers and having historical bad offensive lines  throughout his career as a starter. Gabbert to me will always be a what if as in what if he would've got drafted by the bengals instead of this team and ownership. Personally, my biggest bust of the gene smith era is going to be bryan anger when he could've had Russell Wilson.
