This says more about poor scouting and evaluation than about reaching.  If you believe your evaluation is correct and that player will not be available at your draft position, then it's not reaching.  

It's only reaching if they suck or they would have dropped anyway

the draft position of one QB has zero effect on the quality of play of another QB. this is like the last numbers list on the roulette wheel. a list of things that have absolutely nothing to do with the next similar thing, but is designed to get you interested.

Wouldn’t Elway and Eli be here too? I know the trades happened after they were picked but in essence within an hour/six days the top pick was traded for players/draft picks/drafted players.

I guess our best hope is that Trevor forces a trade right after being picked as that’s a 100% guaranteed multiple SB winning HOF/maybe HOF QB.

Does anyone have Trevor’s agent’s cell?

Absolutely!

Just like Andrew Luck!

Huh? What does Luck have to do with forcing a trade for a top 5 pick. Colts didn’t trade anything to select Luck.

We tried.

Bill Polian actually revealed what the Panthers offered for the number one pick a little while back. I don't remember the details but it was substantial.

Edit: Sorry, that was for Peyton Manning, not Luck.

So you are saying the year after we drafted Cam and he was the ROY, we tried to trade up for Luck? Really?

No. We made that offer trying to get Peyton.

Sorry. I'm a tad frazzled today

yikes!

Let's just pick the best player available when our pick comes along at #8. We're a mid-card team trying to move up a weight class and rumble with the big boys. It's not the time to get cute and all tricksy. Just to do your own scout work, really grill the players in interviews, picks smarts over marketability, toughness over charisma and do your best to weed out the busts waiting to happen.

And really, really scout hard for picks in the later rounds. Our coach isn't afraid of youth, so make the most of that.

No ring, probably no jacket. Shortened career. Cautionary tale.

So stay put and draft a LT or Mac Jones if the top 4 are gone?
