Your odds are better the earlier you take him. How many Qb's were taken early in the Christian Ponder draft? Didn't seem to discourage teams. |

It’s far easier to teach a Jordan Love high ceiling QB to read defenses and operate the system than it is a Mac Jones high floor QB to make impressive plays when needed. The Packers need to be emulated by every team |

Hurts, Levis, and Purdy all went 2nd round or later fairly recently. Or are you suggesting that Purdy would have gone top 12 this year?!?

To be fair, I don't recall ANYONE thinking that Ponder would be worth a ****. That one was always a head-scratcher.

So yeah, if McCarthy doesn’t work out in Minnesota try again and don’t wait 2-3 years. If he’s Kirk cousins 2.0 keep trying. Otherwise they’re wasting generational talent. |

If teams wanna keep chasing trying to find the next Mahomes or Josh Allen....well good luck. There's only 2/3 elite level QB's in the league at a time, at best. |

In 2011 Blaine Gabbert, Chrisitan Ponder, Cam Newton and Jake Locker went in the top 12 of picks.
The position is too valuable, teams will keep taking guys high and churning and burning. Nature of the sport. |

Yep. It's arguably a flaw in the design of the sport. On a 53-man roster with 22 players on the field at all times, there is this one position that is all-important. And there are only like 10-15 people in the world who can play it well enough to give you a shot at winning anything meaningful.
