Mayock, Ing, and I all agree.

Say no to a QB in the first round!

Re: Mike Mayock:No QB Worth 1st Pick

I agree as well. Should it happen? No. Could it happen? Yes... the position is coveted.

I could see Bradford dropping to us. I think its not likely, but that it could happen.

Re: Mike Mayock:No QB Worth 1st Pick

I think even if one of them drops we aren't taking them. That will piss off plenty of the fans.

Teams always overpay for a QB

Alex Smith wasn't the best player in 2005 but he went No1, as did JaMarcus Russell in 2007.

QB is always the position teams will overpay for in a draft

Mayock, Ing, and I all agree.

He says he doesn't think a QB should go #1 overall. Doesn't say that there is none worthy of top ten.

Really, its going to depend on who is available when we pick. There are only a few players who are almost "Cant Miss."

Morgan, McCoy, Suh, Berry, Haden, Okung. Outside of those players everyone else has questions so you might as well grab the best QB on the board.

I never said anything about the top 10, but he does call the class average as far as QB's go.

I think we should take the best LT on the board not the best QB, especially when their are questions about if the top 2 guys are even worth of a top 10 selection or not.

I would have no problem taking Bradford at #9.


And i'm pretty sure Ing said he'd have a brain aneurysm if we passed on him. I could be wrong though.

yep. because he's the best QB in the draft by a mile. he's not a surefire success like Roethlisberger, McNabb or P. Manning when they came out, but he's clearly the best QB in this draft.

We need a QB so badly... i couldn't forgive this franchise if it passes on the lone "possible" franchise QB in this draft.


~note: I'm not sold on Bradford, but i've seen enough of the other "top" QBs to know he's the best one -hands down- in this draft. He's at the lower edge of my ratings a guy needs to get to be even a "first round talent." But if the best QB in the draft drops to you, and QB is a massive hole in your roster, you have to take the shot, as long as he's drawing a 1st round grade.

Re: Mike Mayock:No QB Worth 1st Pick

He could be right, but he's certainly been wrong before.

Re: Mike Mayock:No QB Worth 1st Pick

No QB is worth a 1st.


That's if you're on ice.

Re: Mike Mayock:No QB Worth 1st Pick

But Tebow IS A GOD ! I'VE HEARD OF HIM !

Draft a LT in Round 1 and aquire A Vet QB to compete with Brohm.

Re: Mike Mayock:No QB Worth 1st Pick

Good read....I still bet Clausen and Bradford go top 10 and one of them goes top 5

Very well may but that does not make them worth it or the smart picks.

It really depends on who falls to us DB. Its a board right, and you take the top player on your board.

For me it is,


1. Suh
2. Okung
3. Morgan
4. McCoy
5. Clausen
6. Bradford
7. Hughes
8. Bulaga
9. Dunlap


10. Campbell
11. McClain
12. Berry
13. Bryant

Now, that board factors in value AND need based on Buffalo. If I was doing a board for another team it would look different.

So for Buffalo, they would be taking one of those top 9 guaranteed.
