2012 Draft-QB Prospects (Part III)

REDSKINS4ever

Most of the time, I don't read back threads. I only focus on the current page. But since I didn't see anything pertaining to Barkley's eventual decision, I thought I'd post it. I didn't know that someone had beaten me to it.

Not stupid at all, I think he stays, he is having the presser at USC, why would he say he is leaving in front of the student body? Just to actually here the boo's, nah.

Hypothetically speaking, let's say Barkley, Griffin III, and Jones all decides to stay. I realize you still have other QBs like Tannehill and Weeden, but do you draft a QB this season just to be drafting one? Or, do you will and deal your draft picks this year in hopes of landing a high draft pick next year - where you could possibly be a shoe in for someone like Griffin or Barkley?

Well he's having the presser in the same place that Sanchez and Bush said they would go pro

No. I don't think you wait another year

FYI. We'll start a fresh thread once the decision is official and lock this one up

I think you intelligently (without too much reaching) draft a QB as high as you can this year. Then perhaps do so again next year depending on results.

Ha! Well he'll probably stay. I think Landry declares though. I have nothing but my own guessing to base that on though. Every week it seems I hear something different on RG III

Makes sense. I guess we learn about Barkley today at least. The more coming out the better for us.

I guess my only thoughts are, if that particular QB, say Tannehill, would normally be #22 in the first round WITH Barkley and RG III in the draft, would one still think it's wise to draft him at say #4 because he happened to move up be it that RG III and Barkley stayed in school?

But then again, I suppose it becomes the law of supply and demand. Less QBs in the draft makes the ones left in the draft more valuable. Just seems crazy to have to draft a QB higher than you might have because the other guys didn't declare.

I think this is a rare case where supply and demand may increase or deflate at the same rate. I think a RGIII, Barkley, Luck type may get teams fired up to draft a QB but if they are not there they will probably look to fill another need vs. drafting a Tannehill type earlier then expected.

We need Barkley and RG3 to come out. And even then chances are we're going to have to trade up to get the guy we want. Then again I can't help but wonder if Shanahan sees someone like Nick Folles as the Ryan Kerrigan of QB's and instead of trading up he trades back to not only get his QB but extra picks.
