We have to address the QB position eventually

why not now? seriously...

why not do whatever it takes to get him and sacrifice a couple years in the pits for doing so?

we've already started "rebuilding" or whatever you call want to call it

we keep toiling around .500 when we know we're not gonna go anywhere


throw everything at the direction of detriot and oakland and get "your guy"

i know why have alot of holes to fill. but all the makeup in the world won't cover that blemish of not having a QB back there

we need to get a QB and stop getting these stop gap guys

who's with me?
 
Then who protects him if you give up everything to move up? We still need OLmen..remember..so you have to be careful in how you do that, but you can't give up a bunch of picks this year, maybe a trade along with a pick, or a pick this year and next plus a trade of something like that, but you're looking for a lot of diamonds in the rough to complete your O this year.
 
I'd prefer not to to "give up the farm". However, I am hopeful that #9 is as high as we will be picking for a while, which means if we ever intend of drafting a "franchise qb" this would be the time. So, yes I think we should and will make a strong push for Quinn. If not make sure we get Stanton, IMO.
 
I hear you brother.

If I could erase the last decade of our offense I would.
Feely, Feidler, Harrington, Huard, Lucas, etc.

How much more punishment do we have to take?

Do what it takes.

We need #10 behind center.

I'm not opposed to going after "your guy" I just don't beleive Quinn is that guy.
 
I don't know if it would be worth trading with Oakland or Detroit, but if Quinn slides out of the top 3. Mueller better be on the phone with Washington willing to give them whatever they ask for.
 
Quinn and Russell are not Leinart, Young, and Cutler. If we were ever going to "give up everything" for a QB, it would've been for the latter 3. I say we stay where we are, go after a position of need (o-line, secondary), try out Daunte or Trent Green for a year, and then wait til next year. If Daunte or Trent don't pan out, then we'll have a high pick and we can go after a real prospect like Brian Brohm or even Booty.

an EMPHATIC NO!!!!!:ninja:
 
first rd draft picks on qbs usually flop
 
Yeah, let's do like NY did with Eli. After 3 years, they're probably be heading to the Super Bowl this year. We can sacrafice 3 years too.

Ahmen...Would be nice to take a chance. Been way to long since we really went after a guy in the draft, especially a QB...Enough of these retreads.:err:

Eli has given no indication of being a Super Bowl QB thus far. A much, much better example would be Ben Roethlisberger.

Of the top of my head - the big 3 from last year haven't been flops, carson palmer, peyton manning, donovan mcnabb, ben roethlisberger, philip rivers, eli manning, and I'm sure there's more that I'm not even thinking about right now. So first round qb's don't "usually" flop.

How about Drew Bledsoe, Trent Dilfer (Sb Anyone?), Steve Mcnair, Kerry Collins, Chad pennington, Michael Vick. While some may be argued, all are better than we have had behind center since Dan....:tongue:

Depends what you mean by flop and usually. Off the top of my head: Carr, Harrington, Leftwich, Couch, Mcnown, Akili Smith...
