Brennan is the fan's QB of the future. You don't draft a QB in the six round with the intention of him being a franchise QB. CB is a project who, according to Zorn, is far from NFL ready. I'll trust that if the coaches think he is ready to be a leader and a field general, he would be starting.

...or did I overlook the sarcasm in your post. :confused:

Where a guy is drafted has no meaning if he's a franchise QB or not. That's determined when and if the player gets a chance to play.

You should probably read my post before making a rhetorical response such as this.

I said you don't take a guy in the sixth with the intention of him being a franchise qb. It doesn't mean that he is not or could not be a franchise qb. It's obvious that even the first overall pick has to prove himself.

If a team decides to draft their qb of the future, they certainly aren't gonna do it with a sixth round pick- and don't give me any Tom Brady talk.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?

If you have no O line then youre quarterback is going to get squashed. The Skins need to concentrate on the line.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?

if we're smart, and I'm not saying we (as in snyder and cerra-Doh!) are, we should probably trade back if Sanchez falls.
I know this is taboo, but we could always trade with Philly if Sanchez falls to us. Philly won't keep McNabb for much longer, they run the west coast offense and more importantly, have a ton of picks.
I say bleed'em or anyone else willing to play ball. There aren't many quality QB prospects this year and that should play to our advantage if he falls to us.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?

I could not even imagine the fan backlash if we drafted Sanchez. Not to mention it would be a horrible pick.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?

Just imagine if danny, vinny zorn a Jc were all in on this elaborate scheme, to make others thin kwe didnt want jc and were going to take another qb. Let us work him out, let others thin kwe would really take him just to ensure we could trade back? Oh wait its late that was just a really ****ed up dream...where we still got Oher, and Mack with our newly aquired 2nd round pick! LMAO

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?

No no no...he won't even be there when we pick, denvers in Front of us, and if we trade up to get a position which we don't have as big of a need as say DE or OLB or OT, then I will be very very pissed...I don't even think sanchez is that great anyway I think he was good because he had elite talent around him ...NO dan no! We could tom Brady out there and it still wouldntmake us that good cause we couldn't protect him with our needs at OLine...NO No NO!!!

I seriously doubt we'll pick him but it's nice to have other teams think we will.

Yes it is nice to have other teams think we will but we better not, we have bigger needs like LDE and OL

I agree. Whoever we draft at 13 needs to contribute THIS year, not somewhere down the road or not at all.

In that case, it would mean we will have to draft on defensive side such as LB.. You may be right though, Redskins might go this way but I just find it difficult to waste an opportunity to draft a elite LT, that is if any of top 4 Ts is available.. Samuels might be able to handle being LT for maybe two years, but it doesn't stop the fact of aging player gets injured often.. It would be nice to have a back-up T to handle the position.. Draft a T, let Jansen, Heyer, and rookie T fight it out for RT.. Whoever plays the best, he wins that place.. Hell, if the rookie do very well in practices, enough to show coaches that he is ready to play then go ahead and pluck him into LT and move Samuels to RT, then we would have one of the best O-lines in NFL.. That is if Thomas do well this year, or one of our back-ups emerges.. Imagine what we can do if JC would be able to do with some times..

We should be able to find a good LB in 3rd round; I wouldn't mind if we trade some picks to move up to 2nd round (I prefer to trade down with our #13 but suppose if there was no trade partner) to draft a better LB if whoever is on our board (Snyder and Vinny's board) is available..

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?

I agree but honestly I doubt one of the top OT's will be available at 13. It's possible, but a potentially elite OT is valuable and hard to find. I think teams are more likely to gamble on an OT than some of the other positions. I don't think the FO would draft Mack at 13 though personally I would, so a tradedown is probably our only chance to get him. I need to get over it but I can't help thinking about how much we could use that second round pick we gave up for JT. Maybe someone will trade up with us for Sanchez or someone else and we pick up another draft choice and find the best OT's were gone before the 13th pick anyway. Then we pick up Mack later in the first, Matthews, Maualuga, or one of the other good LB's falls and we pick him up with the other pick we got in the trade. And maybe I'll wake up in the morning and find Jessica Alba standing at the foot of my bed holding the 60 million dollar lottery check I won while I was sleeping. Man I can't wait until the draft gets here. I think we'll do something to help our team. I just don't know if we'll do the best thing to help our team. By the way GridIron26, just like you, I would love to see what Campbell could do without having to run for his life.

What a coincidence, she visited me early morning last week...didn't stay long though.

I have the same suspicion about our choice @ OT being limited. Sounds like the FO doesn't view Oher as a value @ 13 (I think he'll be there but we pass on him). I don't know, guess i just have to go w/ their scouting on this one. Britton and the other guys are probably a reach @ 13...so yeah defense may be the 1st pick. DE? LB? Hard to say. Rey would surprise me now quite a bit.

...altogether I think the FO has been real smart to keep the chips off the table since our early flurry (apart from the friggin Cutler debacle). I mean there should be some nice talent come available in FA after the draft, value opportunities for sure at OL i'm thinking.
