And if 5 of the poorer teams in the league all draft quarterbacks this year, the 5 guys most talked about, plus Dalton and Kapaernick all going in the 1st 2 rounds, seems to stand to reason that demand for quarterbacks should drop next year, when the supply will be better. So we can get the best value rather than reaching for someone this year/trading away a key pick from next year to the Patriots to move from 41 to 33 (or 28), to take Locker or Ponder, who the jury is very much still out on.

I tend to agree with you! I think it is much easier developing a QB when he has a great supporting cast around him. I would much rather the Redskins focus on building the offensive line up, getting a solid nose tackle, and landing a true #1 WR or the next start RB.
