.....2005 Stefan Lefors QB Louisville (4th round)

-no stats, because he never started.

2002- Randy Fasani , Stanford (4th round)

- He played in four games, going 15-44, 171 yards, 0 TDs and 4 INTs, while rushing for 95 yards. He later signed with the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets, but did not play in any regular season games.

-As of 2008 he is a police officer for the city of Roseville, Ca

2001 - Chris Weinke QB Florida State (4th round)

- jersey retired at Florida State, heisman winner, johnny unitas award

- holds NFL record for most consecutive losses in a season by a QB with 14 (too bad the lions started 4 QBs in 2008). 2-18 as a starter.

-15/26 (td/int), 62.2 QB rating.

1995 - Kerry Collins QB Penn State (1st round)

-2 pro bowls (1996,2008)

-73.8 Qb rating

- 186/179 td/int.

We have only selected 1 Qb in the first round. For some reason, we thought we could find a franchise QB in the 4th round, sure you can do it, but after the first 2 times........

what i dont get is why the scouts couldn't pick out a good QB. 1 out of 4 (kerry collins) that is capable of winning the nfl. and why the hell they are afraid to pick one up early is beyond me. I understand we have good players that we have picked up in those earlier rounds, but I know good and well we could have done better. The only reason I bring it up, is because we have to go through this again this offseason. Unless of course, Matt moore, AJ Feely, or some other half-a** Qb is the Qb of the future. (sorry about calling Matt Moore out. it happens)

Using a high pick on a QB is arguably the biggest crap shoot in the entire league. Guess wrong, and you might set your franchise back for years (many teams have, and on QBs that were considered "can't miss").

Whether you agree with the "mid-level free agent" route that Fox prefers or not, there is a certain logic to it.

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
