QB Combo Possibilities: Which Do You Want (QB Rumors: Verse 10)

There are plenty of teams who can be in the mid to later rounds of the first that can choose a QB of the future. We don't have to constantly suck and pick in the top five for that.

I know it seems like some here think RG3 is a sure bet but I'm telling u history has shown one of these 2 won't be a true franchise qb

Sure, and we've all been stung before by this, but sometimes you never know if you don't try. I'm willing to try, just as much as I'm willing to give PM 2-3 years while keeping all our draft picks and continuing to build the team.

That was a very different beast. Draft picks weren't nearly as valued as FA and even with FA in 2004, we definitely missed on quite a few of them. Don't get me wrong, I'd love either RGIII or PM, but I'd be just as happy keeping our picks and continuing to build the franchise with younger, better players. No one is going to confuse Mark Brunell with Peyton Manning.

2004 was by far the exception, not the rule.

Let's hope it's not 02,03,06 or 07 all over again! Manning bros are only QBs taken in the first 2 picks to win the Super Bowl over the last 12 years.

For me it's 95% RGIII, 1% Manning, 4% I'm blowing up Redskin Park

Does that mean there is a chance we get a new stadium in down town DC?

History would also tell you that Phillip Rivers, Eli Manning, or Ben Roethlisberger would be a bust.

Well, by most standards, JP Losman was.

Although Matt Schaub was not.

You guys do know the consequences of your actions right? You'd be blowing up the practice bubble that Mike Shanahan runs in every morning.

Not only that, if we're as shitty as some people think we'd be with Peyton, we'll stilll have a chance at a top QB AND still have the picks to make the trade if need be.

I want RGIII or Peyton, but I'm happy with either.

I think we saw the value of PM has on a team from watching the Colts last season. That same Colts team last year is a playoff team if Peyton woulda played.

I think that is hard to state with great certainty. They have a lot of issues that were not addressed and had a lot of injuries. Peyton Manning may be a field commander, but he's not an Alaskan medicine man with healing powers.
