You are assuming your tangential question of what I think or whom I like is the issue.
It's not the issue its actually besides my point.

The issue is whether or not they should have drafted a QB. Not which QBs I like. If it needs to be more binary if the QBs we didnt select become more valuable then the player we did select then it was a mistake. All I'm saying is that in our situation we should have selected a QB. And I would bet that they wanted to select one but were unlucky with how the draft played out.

It's like asking someone to buy you a lottery ticket and they return with no ticket and tell you that you weren't going to win anyway so they didnt get you one and to justify their stance they ask you well what numbers you would have selected?

Now i'm game to talk QBs all day long. And maybe it wasnt clear in my post but the QBs I mentioned in the order I mentioned them would have been my targets.

Lol, You respond to a post for someone else and inject yourself into the combo and ask a question. Even though it's something I already addressed I take the time, from my phone no less, to reply.

And this is the response? Cool, I guess. SMH

Re: Not drafting a QB a mistake?

30gut, your entire position is mental masturbation. Talking about taking a QB without grounding yourself in the reality of what was available at the time is tantamount to sitting in a corner playing with yourself. I'm uninterested in participating in such an inane and pointless discussion. Same with just about everyone else on this board.

If they don't then we could have this discussion, it would only be a mistake if the QBs we passed on in 2015 end up looking good. Like if Petty or Hundley tear it up then yeah we will kick ourselves....

Did I twisted your arm and force you to make I don't know how many posts is it now?

This is one of many threads that I've started and I try to post when someone responds out of courtesy because that how conversation/discussion works. If you think this topic is whatever then don't post in it. No one is forcing you. Frankly of the threads I've started I didn't expect this one to get the most traffic but guess what? The traffic isn't generated by me, I just respond. Imho the best topic thus far is the one with the least posts.

For the record I have countless times even before you posted stated exactly where the QBs could have been drafted. Here's a newsflash: everyone isn't going to agree. I know there is a lot of groupthink in message boards, but its okay for people to disagree without all the drama.

And oh btw pointing out 'mental masturbation' in an internet sports message board'? Priceless, but at least I realize it.

Cheers all the same.

I thought this back and forth sounded familiar. Page one of this thread.

Deja vu all over again.

Re: Not drafting a QB a mistake?

Yes, not drafting a QB was definitely a mistake but only because it eventually led to the creation of this thread. If Scot M. reads this board, I'm sure he now wishes he had drafted one just so he could escape this endless torture of circular reasoning.

But then, not drafting one may have led to a thread entitled "Drafting a QB a mistake?".

Re: Not drafting a QB a mistake?

This thread is one of those "Rubber Necking" threads. Just like I know I shouldn't slow down to look at the accident in the opposite lane of traffic, I know I should just ignore this thread entirely as it became inane pretty much after page 2.

But yet, here I am like a moth to the flame.

I so hate this thread.

Re: Not drafting a QB a mistake?

This thread is 10% football discussion, 30% 30gut's mental masturbation, and 60% people making fun of 30gut.

It's entertaining at the very least, but not worthy of "Redskins Discussion for the Knowledgeable Fan".

Your posts amuse me. Despite your whining and criticisms its laughable that you aren't bothered in the least by your own hypocrisy for most likely the 2nd highest post count in this thread. Nevermind that you did a 180 on your on statements about the question. And you talk about mental masturbation while actively, vigorously participating.

Cheers
