You might be right. To me it seems easier and happens more often that you can pick up an OL any where in the draft and with good coaching and scheme they will do fine starting. QB's are a different issue. I know people will throw up the stats again in regards to all the big starters and when they were drafted but to me those are diamonds in the rough and the team got lucky. I just don't see the Skins being able to pick up someone like that mid to late in the draft. JC has done well but he's not great. Brennan has been injured too much but a lot of you feel he's just camp fodder getting lucky. Daniels last year, I liked him and bet he turns out pretty good with the Saints. But none are Franchise QB's. Remember Ramsey? LOL.
I just feel if a Franchise QB is needed (which we don't have) and you have a high draft pick and the pickings are slim then QB is a no brainer. Then I'm throwing in the fact that in almost everytime a team picks a new HC a QB is drafted who the HC thinks will be able to work his system. So I'm not just saying it cause I want it I'm saying it cause it almost always happens so expect Shanahan to do it. If he doesn't then I'm fine with it. But I'll say next year we won't have as high of a pick so don't expect to get one of the top tier QB's next year either. Expect more of the extremely coached up variety of QB. Then there's what do we do if we don't draft a QB this year and next year JC say goodbye? who takes over? a Rookie?
