[QUOTE=53Fan;657734]Well there are 32 starting QB's in the NFL and there are 160 starting o-linemen. They can't all be #1 picks, but teams like the Jets who do have more than 1 on the o-line seem to be doing pretty well and I would certainly give their line more credit than their QB.
One of those #1 QB picks is our own JC who we would be replacing because he's.....not good enough?[/QUOTE]
I'll have to give you this one. Most teams thought we reached for JC when most likely he would have been drafted in later rounds if drafted at all. Some teams felt because of where he was from he would have been a UFA.
To tell you the truth it wasn't until today that it finally sunk in that this team actually feels totally different to me. If the bus were to pull up today (which I think it has) I'm all at the back of the bus near the toilet... just in case I'm wrong so I can vomit.
but I'm on the bus. This year I'm not expecting SB chances, however I do get jealous with the teams that draft QB's then all of a sudden look 110 % better like Atlanta, Baltimore, and Jets. but honestly I'll be satisfied even if we put a 5-11 team on the field so long as there is a sign of improvement on the field, play calling, and clock management. I'm not asking for miracles, just asking for them to look like an NFL team.
I found myself feeling sorry for the Raider fans who most likely would give their left nut for Al Davis to either keel over or back off and hire a decent GM and HC and let them run the team knowing that it will take whoever comes in more then a few years to fix the mess he has turned the team into.
Whoever or however our team chooses to utilize the draft will be ok with me knowing adiquate minds are at work with a plan on turning this team around.
