Why a first round pick? There have been many Excellent QB in the NFL not selected in the first round. They just have to be good. I could give a ____ what round a player is selected

You will be waiting a long time for that to happen :bang2:mickgreen58 said:Yep.
I look forward to the day I can go grab a jersey from the Pro Shop of a QB from dallas that is
A - Younger than me (im 27)
B - not a former Baseball player
C - Not a huge reach in the 2nd round
D - A 1st round pick
I know my standards are high but...errr..nevermind :bang2:

I don't believe Kyle Orton was a 1st (possibly 4th?)mickgreen58 said:Your entitled to your opinion which I definately dont share.
I really dont recall the study that was done that show just how successful historically quarterbacks have been that have been drafted in the first round as opposed to ones who were not.
Look at the Cowboys
Don Meredith (chosen first with Don Perkins by the Cowboys staff in 60)
Craig Morton - 1st round
Roger Staubach - 10th Round (I dont know if he would have went in the 1st if he had not devoted himself to going to the military)
Troy Aikman - 1st Round
2004 Playoffs Quarterbacks

Chargers Drew Brees
Colts Peyton Manning
Eagles Donovan McNabb
Falcons Michael Vick
Jets Chad Pennington
Packers Packers *(Brett Favre played all but 1 year for the Packers)
Patriots Tom Brady
Rams Marc Bulger
Steelers Ben Roethlisberger
Vikings Daunte Culpepper
Broncos Jake Plummer
Seahawks Matt Hasselbeck
Correct me if I am wrong, I dont know about Hasselbeck but Brady and Maybe Favre are the only ones that were not first rounders correct?
The data goes on and on and I dont feel like typing it all out. Yes there have been major busts but data has shown there have been far more hits then misses.
Look at who the up and comers are..Carson Palmer, Kyle Orton, Byron Leftwich..all first rounders?

We interested??????

Makes me want to go watch that video of some of Roy's big hits someone made here called "Dont tug on superman's cape"

Actually, I'd like Josh McCown.

As for all the "Culpepper is nothing without moss" crap, all QBs have bad years. He's a career 91.5 rated passer, and just had two great years back to back. I think his struggles this year have a lot more to do with other things than missing moss.
