a good counter point to the miami scenario are the falcons. who selected matt ryan then sam baker.
who would you rather have? matt ryan and sam baker or chad henne and jake long? imo i dont really look at history or what worked or didnt work for other teams. nothing is the similar enough to warrant giving much weight to comparison analysis imo.
for every manning, there is a leaf. for every chris samuels, there is a mike williams. for every brady, there is a well .... a shit ton of 6th round qbs who didnt make it.
but i think you get my point. what worked or didnt work for the dolphins or falcons in 2008 or 2007 doesnt carry much weight to me when im making my fan opinion of how the skins should proceed.

I'd be thrilled if we had the Falcons scenario, of having the luxury of two first round picks. As I've said, I'm not like some folks who think it'd be the end of the world if we drafted a QB. I just look at it this way....offensive line has been hands down a big issue for the team. Whereas QB, I don't think you could find a consensus, even among the pundits. With that in mind, I think the course of action should be to draft a franchise LT.
Now, could the Redskins draft Bradford and a 2nd round LT? Sure. To me it'd be the 3rd best option after drafting a LT at #4 and trading down from #4. I think we could find a tackle at the top of the 2nd round that could potentially start for us. I just feel more confident on a top 5 tackle being able to start right away, and let a second round QB sit on the bench for a year (as oppose to having Bradford sit on the bench for year or get behind the line that we have right now).
