There's no immediate starter. Heck, we even drafted a developmental QB, who we'll know absolutely nothing about for at least two seasons. Add on top of that the fact Brewster and Brandon Williams are done for the year, and it's going to be difficult to assess much immediately. The downfall is this draft simply will not produce many down-the-road starters. I think that's fairly undeniable.
My hope? Buehler is a dynamic kickoff guy who justifies the pick; Stephen McGee is a quality backup in two seasons; Jason Williams is a playmaker by Year 3; Brandon Williams and Victor Butler provide much-needed pass-rushing ability off the bench by Year 2; Brewster and maybe one other pick are quality backups by Year 2 or 3.
My fear? Most of these guys that make the team never amount to much more than inadequate depth and are churned off the roster by Year 3.
We had a 2nd round pick but decided to trade down =/.
