You aren't going to get anyone with high pedigree drafting 21st, but you can get a guy with some pedigree that has a chance.They're infatuated with drafting backup QBs in the 4th/5th round. I never did quite understand this, as you should be able to get some bum in here for something close to the veteran minimum. I guess it's a low-cost investment if you hit big on one of them. Although they were doing this with Ben here, so I can't imagine them thinking some of them would ever be anything with backups.
Josh Dobbs, Landry Jones, Dennis Dixon, Omar Jacobs, Brian St. Pierre, Tee Martin, etc.
But I'd probably rather see Will Howard in the 4th than Jaxson Dart in the 1st. It seems like one of those two routes is inevitable. I honestly don't know a ton about Dart, though, so I could be totally off. Just seems like he kind of came out of nowhere and is creeping up by virtue of the position being so weak in this class.
You're basically buying a lottery ticket in the 4th round.
They have nothing at QB. I wouldn't be waiting for next year or buying lottery tickets this year. But, that's just my opinion and also why I always thought the one year experiment of Wilson/Fields was stupid.
