Who here would be fine with just drafting Kellen Moore?
I would, especially seeing how Tebow is playing and how 'he doesn't have the nfl arm or accuracy or arm strength to play in the NFL.' Moore's weakness is having too weak of an arm. His height isn't a problem since brees is the same height.
I think we have to wait until the Combine. People said the same thing about Andy Dalton, but in reality his arm was strong enough and has played well with out having to be sitting on the sideline becoming NFL ready as most people expected.

I would be fine with drafting him after drafting someone like RG3 and I would all but beg for the team to draft him if they went with Tannehill. However drafting him as THE guy just seems like another Colt McCoy in Cleveland waiting to happen.
Why because they're both small white QBs that don't have elite arm strength?
Moore and Colt are night and day based off their college days.

Weeden is not the option for us, we'd be better off starting Brady Quinn.
There are some really good WRs who will be available in the second round, I'm hoping for Nick Toon, he's got the name also.
and I'm ok with that. I'm just guessing the team will want to go QB and WR in the first two rounds. Depending on what they do in FA obviously will depend on what they do in the Draft. The problem is two really good QB's have decided to drop out which automatically moves the QB's below up a few notches. The team might not like having to draft one of those QB's so high but they might have to in order to get a more quality of play. Which I think goes back to what they do in FA, or it might not. Why not try to get Flynn and pick a 1st round QB... if RGIII is available then have them duke it out in preseason. Our QB position might become one of our strengths. or play the FA for the first few games and let the Rookie see how it is supposed to run with maybe throwing him in for a play or two here and there until he's ready to take over.

I feel like Shanahan will get Foles after working with him, has a lot of similarities of Jay Cutler.

Would anyone take LSU's Jefferson? He led his team to the #1 spot and he seems to be able to run if need be.

I know it's way early and lots can happen but I think I'm gonna be pretty bummed if we don't trade up to get RGIII. The other guys-Tannehill, Foles, etc. are all just really flawed and don't scream 'franchise QB' rather scream 'drafting a QB again in 2015'.
