Redskins Sign Grossman

So the Jets shouldn't have taken Ferguson? We can go back and forth all day citing failures and successes.

That's a bad example for a couple of reasons.

Primarily, there was no comparable quarterback ranked that high. You don't reach.

QB is a far higher risk, that's the point.

There are also a lot more examples of highly-drafted QBs failing than succeeding, that decision has a bad track record.

^ And, if you are right, a much higher reward.

Actually I would say that Leinart was a better prospect. We'll see if he develops this year but in that draft you could have easily gone for Leinart.

Of course, but that's a gigantic IF.

As I said, Bradford does not seem like a sure thing, I don't think we should risk it, especially with more pressing needs...mainly O-Line.

The thing is, Matt Leinart fell quite a bit, and according to Bill Polian, there are little to no surprises in the first round of the NFL draft, only to "analysts" and "fans" who know a lot less.

It's hard to question a man like Polian but at the same time even our mighty Vinnie mentioned things much later that corroborated with our draft choices and the success/failures of players.

Well, ok. I have a different perspective. I think that Bradford and possibly Clausen will be very good NFL QB's and therefore will be worth the risk.

How long has it been since we had an elite QB? How long has it been since we're down 3 late in a game but we can think, "It's ok, we have ______ at QB," the way that Colts and Chargers can?

I have no problem with drafting Okung since the line needs help. But I also have no problem with drafting a QB at #4.

Does this spell the end of colt?

I cannot wait for a month from now when the draft is over and the focus sifts from "who we should take" to "Why we will be a contender". And I would love for once for the kool aid drinkers to be right.

I hate the effin offseason.
