mhenry41h Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 It appears as though we are a lock to draft a DE with the 6th pick. But I ponder this...should Brady Quinn be available at # 6 should we consider it? Having played in a prostyle offense under Charlie Weiss, he would probably be the most able QB to step in the NFL and make an immediate impact. Just some food for thought as its widely believed that Jason C is the QB of the future... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boysetsfire Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 What kind of message would that send to Campbell. "Hey Jason you're our starting qb from now on.........................SIKE DOUBLE SIKE!" We need help on D! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistertim Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 No, I think QB is the very last position we would want to pick up with our first pick. Besides, I'm not really sold on Quinn anyway. Either way, JC is our QB and shows quite a bit of promise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eeyeats Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 one word: no. and this is coming from a huge irish fan. campbell is our qb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morneblade Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Resounding NO. He has not played well in big games, and I'm quite happy with Mr Campbell's progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhenry41h Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 while I agree that it wouldnt send much of a positive message to Campbell...we havent exactly had a highly touted QB in some time. Of course, we all remember the Heath Shuler debacle but I would imagine the Quinn would be regarded as "more likely" to have a stellar NFL career than Campbell. At some point messages would have to go by the way side in favor of putting superior players on the field. Im not going to say that its a sure thing that Brady will be a superior QB to Jason but...at some point you have to look at the talent avaiable to you during your allotted pick. So I guess what Im asking from a business standpoint is this: Given our QB situation, would it be a good idea to pass on a QB of that caliber if available at the # 6 pick? Its an intriguing question to ponder... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21Knock_U_Out Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Quinn wont be as good as Campbell, but we do need to find some more young QB talent for later on down the road.We should waste the first round pick.We gotta give Campbell more of a chance than that.

LIke who? When? This is a rather open ended question. Do you mean in this year's draft? This year in FA? Draft another one in 2-3 years? 6 years? Right now there isnt a QB I would touch in either FA or the draft. 2-3 years from now things might change, but I like what I see in Campbell.

[[ghost]] Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 I would personally come out of no where, and whisper that the Redskins changed their mind to Roger Goodell. The HELL with the FO if they go out and get Quinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhenry41h Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 Personally, Im excited for Jason's future and the immediate future of this football team. A few tweaks here and there and things an be looking pretty good. But I am curious as to your opinion about what makes Cambell so much better than Quinn that you would risk replacing your brain with a grapefruit?

Chump Bailey Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 :doh: are you insane Inquiring minds would like to know:D Taking Quinn at six would probably go down in history as one of the most insanely idiotic moves ever made in the NFL draft...

Oh no not you again...Damon Huard would be a good pick up So you would be comfortable with Brunell or Collins if Campbell went down for any reason?

Mooka Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 If no QB is taken in the top 5 then our #6 pick becomes serious trade bait. I'm not sure if that many teams are really coveting a QB though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can make more plays with his speed and strength than Quinn can when things break down. More importantly, Campbell doesnt get rattled. Quinn gets rattled easily and consistently in big games. He got blown out by Michigan, USC and LSU and looked terrible in those games. I dont think he has the mental makeup to win, and I think that Campbell does.

Since this thread was about who should we draft at #6, I dont think you going to be drafting a "backup" at #6. Try to somewhat stay on topic, and people will have a better idea of what you are talking about. Well, since Huard was the 3rd QB behind Collins, I dunno if that is such a great pickup. Collins might be better. We could probably ask Al about that, and why he had Collins brought over in the first place. So yeah, Im ok with what we have.

You're right about staying on the topic, but the guy, AND YOU are talking like there is no need in trying to get a reliable back up to Campbell and both of you suck rocks as far as that is concerned. And again, I say that you will be the first person to turn your back on Campbell by week 6 or whenever BLC instructs you to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG, thank you for the laugh!:laugh: I'm pretty patient, much more so than you my friend. I expect Jason to have some tough times next year. I wasnt calling for Brunells head after week 1, like alot of peole were. And, I do think that Brunell is a good backup. NOw, I really dont want him starting 16 games, but when he is healthy, I think he has enough left to play well enough in 2-4 games if pressed into action. Remember, he was also learning a new offence last year, and from things I heard he was really feeling the pressure. He didnt know the offence like he wanted to, and it showed. Collins, I dunno what he has left. Looked both horrid and decent in preseason last year. Huard is pretty ancient as well. but Im ok, with what we have right now.
