Quote:While I agree that the QB is this team's biggest need, drafting a QB is not the only way to solve that problem. Some teams decide to trade for a QB (eg Chiefs and Alex Smith), and there might be a few that might tempt Caldwell if he decides to focus on building the rest of the team in the draft. The likes of Cutler and Schaub might be available if their teams might decide to move on. By no means do I think that will happen, nor am I sure it is the 'right' way to go, but Caldwell could trade for a QB if he prefers to use his high picks to build up the supporting cast.

 

 

That would take alot of stars lining up and is to me the least likely scenario. We're takin a QB in the first or second it just depends on Bridgewater and Mariota IMO. Possibles with us picking at #3:

 

Bridgewater vs Clowney at # 3 : I think dave goes Bridgewater and we see a DE or similiar OLB/DE Barr type player in the second.

 

Mariota vs Clowney at # 3 : Clowney gets the pick and we take one of the more polished QBs in the second (McCarron if available)

 

Mariota vs Barr at #3 with Clowney and Bridgewater gone : Close call but in this case its likely Mariota.

 

Barr vs Clowney at #3 with Mariota and Bridgewater gone : Toss up as we could use either. Personally i feel Barr would be the better fit and could do more dropping into coverage and rushing the passer but i feel Clowney will be the more dominant pass rusher. If it were me id take Barr.

 

Side Mention: Bridgewater vs Barr = easy choice of Bridgewater. 

 

Crazy talk prediction: Bridgewater vs Mariota with Barr and Clowney gone. Extremely unlikely but still take Bridgewater.
