Tyrod Taylor? I mean he's a great college QB but he'll probably be at best, a Charlie Frye, and that's if he's lucky.

C. Frye doesn't have moves like Tyrod does he? Hate to say it, but that's probably a fair assessment otherwise, Tyrod will be lucky to be a QB in the nfl as I think most teams will not look at him as a qb.

That said, 5th round or later, the kid is solid, mature, could return punts & maybe develop into an nfl qb. He is not a run-first qb, but he runs well.

1st round - best available player.

2nd round - Pat Devlin (Deleware) for the sake of answering the qb question
2nd round (ideal choice) - best player available at DE, OLB, G, T, C.

None of these QB's available in the 1st round seem surefire to me and we need to much help at many other positions to possibly waste a 1st round pick on a QB with a high bust rate. We need help at DE, OLB, G, T, C, and possibly a DB if Carlos Rogers signs elsewhere. I'd rather take my chances with Grossman for another year to see if he can improve and keep getting the rest of the team better so when we find a qb we are ready to rock.

Out of those, Ryan Mallett. Newton is my second choice. Gabbert won't be available at #10, I bet Carolina will take him first.


Locker was the top guy before LAST season, but his stock has gone down in his senior year. Wasn't a solid season for him. He should have left a year sooner for the NFL. He had 4 games where he passed with UNDER 50% completion rate, including a 4/20, 71 yard stinker and 5/16 for 56 yards in their Bowl game. His propensity to throw INTs in almost every game with an occasional big game reminds me way too much of Jay Cutler. He threw picks in 7 of the team's 12 games. Passed for under 100 yards in 4 games too.

Now compare them to Mallett's stats, against far better competition in the SEC:

I would take Mallett.at any rate,Locker and Newton may be gone by the time the redskins pick anyway.Tyrod Taylor is not an NFL QB.his best chance is to be converted to WR or KR.although he could be used in the wildcat offense.

A lot of you may not want to admit it, but the Skins will have to draft a QB this year at #10. Having a rookie QB on board now to learn the offense would be the right way to go.

Why? We can draft a QB in the second round. I think its pretty poor thinking by the FO to say our only option is to draft a QB at 10 with so many holes at multiple positions. I admit the smart thing is to draft a young guy at QB this draft, the dumb thing is to overvalue a position (which is overvalued already) and reach for a QB at 10.

Anybody but Newton.

We could trade for Vince Young if you want a Newton type player.

My vote is for Mallet

The earlier you draft a QB will give you the best possibility of getting the QB of the future. There are exceptions to what I have stated, no doubt, but the law of average is on your side if you draft early. You could make the same argument no matter what position you select. I just think the first round is the round to take that gamble. Yes, it is a crap shoot as with any selection for any position.

The QBs further down the pecking order usually don't pan out - just saying.

As others have said.... this is a forced decision so I picked "other" only cause I rather have Dalton. I don't care how or what round, but at the #10 spot is a bit high for him.

[BaltimoreSkins]

I went with Locker, but I'd prefer to address other needs in the first. When I think of picking a QB in the first with all the other holes we have I think of the David Carr pick by Houston in 2002. I don't think he ever recovered from the lack of support crew around him.

[MonkFan4Life]

Now I've said probably once or twice that I want the Big WR from Georgia but in this world I can't draft anyone besides a QB because that's all that we are allowed to take at 10.

New NFL Rule, if your team blew the year before and the local media hates said team and everyone forgets that the team existed between the years 1992 - 1999 then you are allowed to draft any QB you want at 10.

So, I would go with either Blaine Gabbert or Kellen Moore. Cam is an attractive talent and I'm sure he'll be a hell of a pro but if I have my pick then its Gabbert, Moore, Newton in that order.



Let's pick AJ Green though LOL

[53Fan]

1rst choice - Ryan Mallett

2nd choice - Blaine Gabbert

3rd choice - Trade the pick, McNabb, and Haynesworth for Sam Bradford... hmmm... maybe this should be the 1rst choice. :cool-smil

[skinsfan57]

I believe Kellen Moore is returning to Boise State.Gabbert will go early.Other than Mallett,I like Colin Kaepernick of Nevada.likely to go in the 3rd-4th rd.
