As for getting Cutler, I'd have much rather seen the Skins go after Palmer. Palmer has been the difference maker in turning Oakland around as they now have a legit QB that they havent had since Gannon. I think CP really could have made a similar impact here.
A lot of fans are acting like Luck is our only hope of being a contender. I can understand why they covet this guy, however, I don't think he's worth what it would cost to get him. I agree with you that we can get our guy in the later part of the first round or even the second round. In my opinion, a qb's success depends heavily on the system and supporting cast. GB did a excellent job developing Aaron Rogers and putting excellent talent around him. People didn't consider Rogers as a once in a generation player, yet he's playing like one. One of the main reasons he's been so successful is because he's a perfect fit for the system he's playing in and has an excellent supporting cast. All we have to do is find the guy that fits our system like a glove. There are enough quality guys in this draft to find just that without trading way the future.

Lets say for argument sake that we can't find our guy in this draft. We can still improve this offense and build depth so when we do finally get our guy he will have to supporting cast around him to be successful. One way or the other we're going to need to upgrade our qb position, ol and wrs core. It doesn't matter in which order we do it. It something that needs to be done for us to be successful. There are a lot of quality wrs, te, and ol in this draft from round 1-5. I see no reason to not to trade back and stack up on picks to build quality depth on this team if RG3 is unavailable to us. I know here is a lot of people here that's going to disagree with me, but this is the way I see it.
