.....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.

    • XL could easily be the last dog at the bowl for WR production next year.  That could leave him around 200-300 yards which would be disastrous.
    • Well sure, that's where the disconnect is then. If Thielen only gets 300-400 yards and T-Mac is healthy for the full season, then I'm with you guys, in that scenario there is absolutely zero excuse for him to not put up over 1,000 yards.   In fact, I'll let you double that, if Thielen has only 600 yards, then again, my expectations are for T-Mac to surpass the 1k mark with ease. But his game has never been about his physical abilities, so even if he loses a half a step, he's still the same player who is a savvy route runner who will get open and Bryce will continue to find him due to their chemistry.  Particularly since Bryce isn't a QB who forces things, he takes what the defense gives him.  So when teams focus on T-Mac and Thielen is more free to find those holes in the defense than he has the last two years, I don't think Bryce is going to ignore him. If someone wants to argue for T-Mac getting to 1,000 yards, personally, I'd say those yards would be far more likelier to come from XL and Coker than Thielen.  And that has nothing to do with XL or Coker, but that I'm still a firm believer in Thielen being able to still get 50-60 yards a game, again, particularly as he'll have less defensive attention on him than in either of his 2 seasons with us so far. Just because T-Mac is our #1 of the future who will have the ball forced to him at times, doesn't mean he needs to be forced into that role from day 1 when we have 3 very legitimate WR options next to him. Let the rookie grow into the role and the NFL game, we have that ability to do so because of Thielen, XL, and Coker.
    • Spot on. He's only 20 and his height 6'2 and weight 230lbs might make him more of an off-ball LB possibility. He's a multi-year project
