How do we not draft a QB (besides pick #249) in such a deep class? Every team in our division drafted a QB even in the case of a Pittsburgh who has an elite one already.
Smart teams plan for the future. Dalton is serviceable but are we willing to pay him 20-25 million per year and continue to stay average at the position? I thought the Ravens made a brilliant move in drafting Lamar Jackson....have him learn behind Flacco for a few year and see where things end up 3 years from now. Do they really want to give Flacco 25 million a year with the way he's playing? The same question can be posed for Andy......
Every off season we sit here and argue about Andy. I think most of us can come to the consensus that he's not terrible or great and that for the contract he's worth it....but that shouldn't preclude you from attempting to solidify/upgrade the position for the future especially with the way the QBs are getting paid.
Cause Dalton is not the problem. Lamar Jackson reminds me of our backup, Jeff Driskel honestly.
Driskel just has a smoother throwing motion and is better passing out of the pocket right now.
Not scared of Lamar Jackson at all honestly, he reminds me of a worse RG3, cause he is not near as good
throwing out of the pocket as RG3 was. Rudolph on the other hand was a nice pick by the Stealers sadly.
I might of been okay with taking a QB somewhere around the 4th round though, but i don't even know
who was around. After Rudolph i really didn't care for any of the QB's that were left. The O-line and the
Defense were what needed to be helped this Draft, not the QB position.
