It just seems more so than this year teams may be looking for a franchise QB, some may consider Stafford their guy (maybe Indy if the lose Bissett after Rivers retired) or maybe Eason is their long term plan.

But Detroit could be a team willing to give up a lot to move 2 spots if their QB is available when we pick. IN our case if Sewell is gone, moving back 2 places for a team likely to draft a QB in the #5 slot could reap huge rewards with little risk getting a player the team covets. Some fans will say won't get much moving 2 places, but that depends on how many teams covet that 1 QB available that teams view as a top 10 pick. Hopefully a guy like Fields or Wilson is there and a bidding war ensues.
