I say it's a toss-up. You don't want to pass up a franchise QB, period. But although Bradford looks good now, he's still a gamble and one hard hit on his shoulder away from a bad decision.

Trent Williams (or Okung) will be good for a long long time. Our offensive line completely sucks, and it just makes sense to fix it. With McNabb/TW you fix both positions quickly. The problem is that you haven't fixed the other 4 O-line positions.

After all that, I'd say the QB is more important and drafting Bradford would have been worth it. As has been said, getting a high draft pick to pick another franchise QB is not possible. We'll have to wait for another free agent QB (McNabb, Brees, or Cutler) to become available and/or get lucky with a late rounder like Brady.
