too many draft needs!

A backup QB shouldn't be that expensive either. No need in drafting either one of those. Just pick up some FAs.

The rest though, I do think we need to spend draft picks on. (Unless we pick up Briggs and CJ)

If you mean we don't need to draft a qb to be the #2 I agree, cause he won't be ready anyway. But I disagree that we don't need to draft one. It was a good use of a pick last year to take Palmer, though he was signed off our practice squad. I think it would be worth a 4th or lower to get a qb & groom him as a backup for a few years.

Yup that's what I meant.
