But do you do that with a first rounder? Mallet was a 3rd rounder. Denver used a 2nd rounder for their supposed successor to Manning.
You know, he never put up awe inspiring stats at Cal (Golden Bears). Had the tools but he never passed for over 3,000 yards in either year as starter.
Why would you need to trade with the Pats to select a QB. Are you afraid of the 49ers, Broncos, and Seahawks taking Manziel? You trade up to jump...
None of the QB needy teams in the top 10 thought he was worthy of being taken that high and then he hit a run of teams that didn't need a QB.
LAST SEASON, I led this team in ninth-inning doubles in the month of August! [spoiler]
Duane Brown. We traded down with Baltimore for an extra 3rd and 6th and took Duane. Baltimore took Flacco with our original pick.
You can, but my point is that it doesn't happen all that often. We've had some notable QBs taken in the 2nd and 3rd in recent years, but I don't...
Mentioned him before, but in that post I was strictly comparing the last 10 years. Brees was taken 13 years ago.
Cleveland still needs a QB and has another 1st rounder. Arizona could take one. Carson Palmer is getting a little old.
If you're saying that A LOT of QBs come out of the 2nd round, yes it matters. I'm not saying it never happens, just that it's rare. If you have to...
Never underestimate Jerry Jones.
Favre was drafted 23 years ago! :eek: Wilson and Foles are notable 3rd round exceptions. Before them, the best 3rd round QB taken in the last...
He already has that.
Not really. Brees, Kaepernick, Dalton ????? I wouldn't call that a lot. QB's are actually typically overrated, which is why a lot typically go in...
And you know, if O'Brien was being truthful about "not seeing much separation" between the top QBs, he might be content to wait until #33 and take...
Well, Kelly had recruited JFF to Oregon. Kelly said he was "tailor made" for his system. But Manziel decommitted and went to A&M instead.
OK, random far fetched prediction. Chip Kelly drafts JFF @ #22 and then trades Nick Foles.
I saw a mock having Bortles go to Tennessee. Would the Titans end the Locker experiment and draft Manziel? How weird would it be if the Titans...
Word before the draft was that Minny didn't want Johnny.
Not really. Cleveland has 2 opportunities to take one. Minnesota could take one. Dallas might take JFF if he falls. Arizona and Cincinnati could...
