and NE lucked into Bellechek and Brady..brady was a 6th rounder.. Bellechek was hired somewhere else and decided to walk out to NE.. a lot of luck plays into those situations..
other teams took Lynch and cook higher then dak so mind that they must have also had them higher on the draft boards NOT JUST JERRY.. Dont remember where manziell went but he was drafted to start..lets not separate jerry from the rest of the nfl..it happens on a regular basis..
Ok well let's dig into what you're saying a bit more.
NE lucked into Bellcheat. Fair enough. But they also had very good coaching prior to Parcells. Wasn't a list of Wade Phillips, Dave Campo's, Jason Garrett's coming through there. They lucked into Brady. Ok. Mind you they also found Jimmy G and Jacoby Brissett....managed to get 11 wins out of Matt Cassell....seems like they know what they are doing at that position......
Your next point...
Other teams took Lynch and Cook higher than Dak. This is correct. But what were those teams?
Raiders
Bronco's.
Two teams with histories of SCREWING UP THE QUARTERBACK POSITION. John Elway can't get a quarterback to save his life. And the Raiders....they suck there too but I guess that would depend on how you feel about Carr.
Johnny Manziel....hmmmm......what genius team decided to draft him? The Cleveland Browns....are you seeing a trend here? Its the same teams over and over again screwing up quarterback lol.
