I was going to include in the original post that we got 'lucky' in drafting Palmer and then Dalton but then I thought about it....it's only seen as luck after the event when really its just you're in right position to make the best decision.
Yeah we were no.1 but we chose to spend it on Palmer...plenty of other franchises have had no.1's and not picked the right one (hello JaMarcus russell)
Also - kudos to Jay Gruden here too - there were plenty of QB's taken in the first 2 rounds of Dalton's draft but we clearly felt he was the best fit for us and also one of the most pro-ready.
