Everytime I see this logic, it drives me nuts. The team doesn't have to spend a high draft pick on a QB just for the sake of doing it. The Titans (Locker), Jags(Gabbert) and Vikings (Ponder) did this 5 years ago only to turn around and spend another first round pick on a QB a few years later.
If we choose a Jake Locker over a JJ Watt or a Julio Jones just for the sake of drafting a QB early, this team will be doomed.
Actually besides Cam Newton, out of the top teams in the league right now...which one of them has a high draft pick QB that they drafted? Cards? No. Bengals? Patriots? Packers? Vikings? Seahawks? Broncos? Bengals? Jets? Chiefs? Commanders? None of these teams spent a top 10 pick on their QB . Only the Colts and that QB isn't even playing and when he has been playing, he has been awful this season.
I am all for a QB if the player fits the draft slot but I hope this team is smart enough to do what the Raiders did a year ago. Take a player such as Khalil Mack in the first and then turn around and get Carr in the second...or what the Bengals did a few years back when they took AJ Green in the first and Dalton in the second.
