As you said in your first post QB is the most important position and if you don't have one and have a chance to get one do the legwork. If there is a guy there that you believe can be a true franchise star QB you take him no matter what...
Why isn't it a good argument against taking one? They have the highest bust rate because they are thrown into bad situations and expected to save franchises. Recent history shows us that teams that come up to take them when their teams are built to compete have more favorable results then teams who find themselves in the top 5 and taking one hoping they will save their franchise. You can't win without good QB play but you also can't win with a horrible team around them. If you take the QB before the team you waste years of their rookie contract which is the real constant we have seen in a lot of the "breakout" teams recently.
We aren't going to be good for years, if we take QB this year we are the Browns. Not the "good" Browns like how they constructed their roster recently, no we are the browns for the previous decade who kept running out QB's they thought were stars only to figure out they couldn't carry a horrible roster and bad coaching.
