The QB Dallas should go get instead of drafting

[Joe Realist]

Mike Glennon or even NIck Foles. I know Foles had a rough year, but if his salary is manageable, offer a 6th rounder for him.

 

[Tabascocat]

Dallas wouldn't be in this position if they listened to me a few years ago and grabbed Keenum!

 

[windward]

When was that?

I was about to post this,

 

[CWR]

There's a QB I like better than anybody in this draft outside of Goff and Wentz. He's right there and he can be had for the right price. I don't know the price.

What do you think of Zach Mettenberger as Romo's eventual replacement?

Don't know much about him but I've heard several of the Media type speak of him very well.

 

[KJJ]

Mettenburger might make a solid backup but he's not Romo's replacement if your goal is to be a championship team. If he had what it took to be a franchise QB which is what we need to replace Romo if we want any chance to win a championship Tenn would have inserted him as their starter and not used #2 overall pick on Mariota. Mettenburger has a career passer rating of 75.4 he's not the answer.

 

[darthseinfeld]

This guy???

 

[Toruk_Makto]

He has 2 years on his contract. Pass.

If he's so called that good, then the price will be very high.

In other words, he's better than 90 percent of quarterbacks that get drafted. Almost all of them bust miserably.

Foles blows.

Almost all the QBs that get drafted bust miserably? You are so wrong! The odds aren't near 90% you're going to draft a QB that busts miserably if you draft one by at least the second round. "Almost" every starting QB in the league was drafted. If you want to find a franchise QB you have to draft one you're not going to find one riding another teams bench. Name one current team that has a "franchise QB" they picked up from another team except for the Giants and Chargers who made a trade with Eli and Rivers?

 

[Supercowboy1986]

I liked mettey-b out of college as a prospect. He's prolly better then Moore.

I don't hate this idea

Do you want me to list them?

 

[KJJ]

List all the QBs that became "miserably busts" that were drafted no later than the second round and list all the QBs that became quality starting NFL QBs or at least serviceable? If you think only 10% of the QBs drafted in the first 2 rounds are at least serviceable you're kidding yourself.

First rounders (and some high seconds) in recent history:

Christian Ponder, Blaine Gabbert, EJ Manuel, Jake Locker, Josh Freeman, RG3, Johnny Manziel, Brandon Weeden, Tim Couch, Nick Foles, Jemarcus Russell, Geno Smith, JP Losman, Cade McNown, Matt Barkley, Jimmy Clausen, Matt Leinart, Vince Young....

I can go on and on if you like.

You're cherry picking a few. LOL You're saying only 10% of the QBs drafted aren't miserable busts and that's false!

There are about 12 quarterbacks in the world worth a crap at any given time. That's a wholotta busts. "Serviceable" doesn't cut it. Weeden is serviceable.

Most teams don't have a quarterback worth a flip. Most of the good ones are old, or close to being old.

Here's the QBs in recent years that are starting in the league. Cam Newton, Russell Wilson, Andrew Luck, Andy Dalton, Ryan Tannehill, Jamis Winston and Marcus Mariotta and that's just in the last few years. You went back almost a decade to find 3 of the names your list. There's drafted QBs that are backups that are decent. No one is saying there isn't a lot of busts at QB but 90% aren't "miserable busts."
