How does that count? He was already up top. I said, "sell the house to move UP and secure a QB". Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]

Say what the fuck you will, they did what had to be done. And if you can't get behind that kind of move, then you obviously don't want a legit QB. Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]
I did. Geno is not a franchise QB like you are claiming. Hell he's not that great of a QB prospect at that.
If we take a QB, I want a guy who we believe can be a franchise QB one day. It's obvious that we aren't the only one's who believe Geno isn't that guy.
The LT's are the best prospects in this draft and that's our plan. [Reply]

No, you're not answering his question.
His question is at what point does positional value overtake individual player value.
I hesitate to paraphrase, but his thinking is that no LT will ever have 1:1 value. So he will always choose a "lesser" player at another position over the top LT.
Meaning to him, if he agrees for the sake of argument that Geno is not a franchise QB, he would still take him over any of the tackle prospects, despite their (again, theoretical for the sake of argument) higher grades.
So basically a QB with a 91 rating is more valuable than a LT with a 98.
(This happens to be my thinking as well)
His point was at what point to you agree with that, if ever? And then further, with which positions would that be true?
Again if we use the same reasons we do for why geno doesn't fit, based on Reid's history, how does joeckel fit? He's not a big physical lt. Doesn't have elite measurables either.
If they take a lt, i don't see it being him [Reply]
