I mean I look at the Jets, the model that so many people here wanted to follow with their dominant offensive line, running game, and defense coupled with an average QB. Now that team is falling apart. It's so hard to keep it going with that big supporting cast, as someone is always getting injured or aging to fast, then it is with a QB that can change games a la RG3.
I'm going to stick with my mantra. Quality over quantity. Just because the no-RG3 plans means we get 3 or 4 extra Day 1 and 2 players doesn't mean we're going to be better off.

I understand the desire and want a franchise QB also, my play on words is none of those are franchise QB's other then PM right now. The others either are not franchise QB's yet or never will be. So everytime I hear "I want us to get a franchise QB" my immediate thought is then you must want PM cause RGIII has done nothing as of yet to warrant the "franchise" tag. Projected or not.
