Balta1701 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 29, 2015 -> 06:29 PM) I just don't even see the point. If you aren't going to draft mariota or winston, you are just drafting a QB to draft a QB. If we use a pick, they'll be off the team in 2 years. I'd rather us pick up Blanchard again. I know the odds are against it, but let's not forget that the 2014 winning/2015 losing Super Bowl QB was drafted in the 3rd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been draft classes with interesting QBs that were not in round 1. This is not one of those drafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSox05 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Here is a list of good qb's taken outside the first two rounds of the draft over the past ten years. Russell Wilson. Maybe Matt Schaub. He was pretty good for a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bears are going to have to get lucky. There's a chance they won't be able to find anyone who is as good as Cutler for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one or two more good players. The list overall is pretty bad. Goes to show how hard it is to find a good QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Mallett. But your point remains. The fact that Orton is on your list and rightfully so, shows the problem. Orton was the Bears QB when the Bears QB wasn't good enough to get the Bears where they needed to go.. The Bears made the Super Bowl with Grossman, so it isn't like they can't win games and be really good without an elite QB, but it is no lay up getting one. And it is probably only going to get harder getting to where they want to be without one. Have they really ever had one? If you look at it objectively, you could easily conclude Cutler is the best QB they have ever had. Edited April 30, 2015 by Dick Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 really, the list of good QBs taken in the past 10 years isnt all that long. 1st through 7th round. Elite QBs are mostly older QBs like Brady and Manning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
