I can.
Can we also agree, no matter how you slice the numbers, the St. Louis Rams got a boatload of our premium picks, and in exchange we get a player with the potential to be a star qb in this league.
Ultimately, I don't care how many Trent Williams, Chris Samuels, or Jansens you have on your team, if you don't have a qb that can win it in the beginning, middle and end of the game, then you aren't going to be a good team in this league. And yes one of the 2nd tier qb's may go on to be That Guy (not the Warpath's That Guy, but you know -- That Guy), but it may or may not be the one we chose. Imagine if Aaron Rodger's turned out to have a JCampbell style career, and JCampbell had the AR type career. It didn't happen, but pre draft, who knew. In fact Andrew Brandt on the Morning kick off was talking with Ross Tucker about how GB kept Rodgers on hold for 12 minutes while they hoped somebody would offer a trade back. What if we had made That Call. Or if someone else had, and we took AR.
well i would ramble a little more, cause I don't want to get back to work, but i guess I have too.
