Hey let's draft a guy who has no shot of being productive with our QB who is one year removed from a borderline "couldawon it all" season whom we have under a team friendly deal for the next 5 years.
Ouch. 9th overall pick for that.
Dalton throws the deep ball as good or better than most NFL QBs.
People watch highlights where every deep ball is a strike and they think Andy is the only one who misses on deep throws. But if you look at the actual numbers he is not bad at all throwing deep.
