If Pryor entered the supplemental draft would you pick him.

[Dirtbag59]

I'm going 5th or 6th, in part because if I remember correctly our 5th or 6th carries more weight then most teams (yeah us). He's more of a nice to have in my book, rather then "this is the guy we need to get." If that was the case I would ask the team to use a 2nd or 3rd, which I don't mind saying since Vinny is now gone and now dumb ideas posted on message boards are no longer used in the teams front office.

[Uncle Skins]

I would pass on Pryor. Also I think it is proper to have all of our selections available when entering next year's draft.

We made a lot of excellent selections this year and I think we can add to this year's value by having a full complement of picks next year.

[Big C]

id pass on pryor as well. however, i think some team would put in a 2nd or 3rd round pick for him.

[CultBrennan59]

..no!

Well from what i hear he is a major project. I'd take him in the 5th round. Being only 17 i have never seen a supplemental draft so i have no idea how it works. In the first round i hope the line backer from boston college comes to us.

What does being only 17 have to do with it? These aren't cicadas

Well it's not televised so no one's really seen one. Are you curious as to how it works?

[Daseal]

I said "No" to the poll, but if the price is right I'd give him a shot. I'd put a 5th rounder out there for him to give him a shot, but that's it.

Nah.. If we go supplemental on one of those OSU kids (assuming they all come out) is the tackle who is supposed to be a late 1st, mid 2nd round grade. What makes the supplemental draft attractive now is without the benefit of OTAs all rookies will be on an even plane. It's really like getting an extra value pick from the 2011 draft rather than giving up a 2012 pick.

[SFREDSKIN]

No way!! He might be athletic, but is a very immature QB that makes very poor decisions on and off the field. Beck or Grossman would be a lot better than this guy. A wasted pick in my opinion.

I feel almost the exact same way. I don’t really know one way or another about Pryor, but I would be all over Mike Adams. If they wanted to go after Pryor or the running back too, sure why not.

I don’t like the comparison that some people make when saying youre loosing a draft pick from next year’s draft to pick up someone now. If you use a draft pick today, from next year’s stock, on a player that you would like to go after next year then youre not losing a pick, youre just using your pick early. Its like youre getting paid in advance. Youre not giving up a draft pick in next years draft, youre using a draft pick from next years draft on a player would otherwise be in next years draft if not for unforeseen circumstances. So if all he does is practice this year, he will just be more impactful next year since he’s more accumulated to the nfl/the Redskins. The only negative thing is that youre potentially using a roster space for a player that may not end up contributing much since his learning time has been shorten, which might not be a big deal this year………

Its not a good thing that traditional rookies and supplemental drafted rookies might end up having the same amount learning time because it means that the traditional drafted rookies are going to be behind where they normally would be. We should expect to get less and less out of what you normally would expect from a rookie’s first year contribution each day the lockout goes on. But fortunitly the nfl realizes this and has basically said that they are probably going to allow for larger rosters (and I think larger practice squads for all the UDFA’s that are really getting screwed in this lockout) this year because otherwise a lot of rookies are gonna get cut since they have a shorted learning curve and will be even further behind then they normally would be. So I think it makes even more sense this year going after a supplemental draft player, since the aforementioned negative of using up a valuable roster spot is likely neutralized since roster sizes are going to be larger/modified.

[musicmaster45]

Kinda, and yea we could load up on rookies this year and be much closer to having all the pieces

[Defensewins]

It amazes me to hear people talk about college qb's. It has become so similar and as polarizing as politics. If a Qb does not have certain labels or buzz words like tall, white kid, pocket passer, pro offense experience then to some it is a waste. That is very narrow minded.
Nearly all college Qb's are not ready for the NLF when they first come out, even the ones that meet these labels.
If your NFL team chooses to rely on a rookie qb to start from day one, your team is doing something seriously wrong with player personnel. It is not an unexperienced and unprepared rookie Qb's fault if he fails, it is the teams FO and coaching staff for putting him in that position.
The question is not do you want Pryor as our starting qb next year. Of course not. The question should be, would you spend a late round pick on a raw, physically talented, project player that will take at least a couple of years to develop. If he ever develops. Someone earlier mentioned RB Royster, well he is no lock either to make it in the NFL. He is a gamble as well. Rb is just an easier position to transition from college to NFL compared to QB, especially on a team that was devoid of RB's as ours was before this draft.
