Case is better than Colt and JJ. For fucking sure.

At this point in Rosen's young and inexperienced career, Case has more of an ability to play now in the NFL and at a higher level than Rosen while Rosen acclimates. Stop gap.
In the past Case has thrived when working with a good offensive coordinator/Qb's coach. Gruden is supposed to be a good offensive coach.
I am not saying Case will suddenly be an All Star under Gruden, but there is a history of upside to Case's play when working with good coaching and a good offensive line and running game in front of him.
Having said that I still believe Case is nothing but a stop gap QB with experience a little bit of upside compared to Colt and JJ.

I don't disagree with anything you're saying but wouldn't it be nice to have a young arm in the mix too like Rosen or a draft pick?

Yes, we are way over due to draft a young QB. In fact I used to love the practice of Beathard/Casserly drafting a QB almost every year in the mid to late rounds. Why not take a shot at QB fairly regularly in the draft?
Mark Rypien 6th round pick.
Stan Humphries 6th round pick.
Babe Laufenberg 6th round pick.
Jay Schroeder 3rd rounder (later traded to Raiders and we got Pro Bowl LT Jim Lachey).

I am against paying a high price (#15 pick) to get Rosen.
I like Rosen's potential, but I watch Rosen I am not convinced I see a NFL franchise player or player good enough to give up #15 or multiple picks. Yes, he has played on some shitty teams but individually his play is good, not great.
i think i would rather draft a 2nd round or lower QB. Not giving up a ton to take a chance, just like we would take a chance on Rosen.
#15 pick needs to be a blue chip Offensive Lineman or edge rusher which this draft has several and starts day one!. Day one starter is a prerequisite.
