If these two arguments are true, then if we are to build a new offense around a new QB and new LT, drafting QB first and T second might be the best choice.
All that said, I'll dance if we come home from the draft with Okung instead of a first round QB.

Too many good QBs out there to just relegate it to the top 4 as potential franchise Qbs. What are the red flags with Stull? Kafka had a pretty decent combine and did great at the Northwestern Pro day. What are the serious issues with Crompton from Tenn or Hall from BYU? The only guy that I have been touting since the end of the CFB season that I have been following in the combines that is suspect has been Canfield, whose arm was on the weak side and not accurate. Bradford and Clausen are hot but are not sure things, and if recent draft history has any bearing on this, it is that these higly touted college QBs also have a high failure rate at becoming franchise guys. The quality is there this year at QB in the draft past the top 4.
