The Cardinals should use their first round pick on a QB every year until the find one!

[Mainstreet]

How about use a first or second round pick on a quarterback three years in a row depending upon perceived quality.



Chopper may be on to something.

If thats the case then why not trade our first round picks for multiple picks in other rounds every year? Using your argument the likelihood of ever getting a good player including a QB in rd one is low so why pigeon hole yourself to drafting one there?

I appreciate your opinion but thats why BPA regardless of position is typically the way to go.

Like the Pats do?

You develop your vet. Year one you are going to have someone on your roster already, more than likely someone who is established. You could even keep three QB for the first two years, and then you have to make your choices. From then on, you have your vet already on the roster.

Not as simple as that, I fear.

Nothing wrong with emulating them that's for sure .. the reality is though that they've only traded out of the very end of the first round twice (pick 26 in 2009 and pick 29 in 2013) in the last 20 years. And once they traded out of the middle of the first round(pick 13 I think in 2000) for Bill Belichick.

They have actually made multiple selections in more years(98,99,04,and 12) than they have traded out of the first rd.

And if you only want to use Belichick era then they have made multiple selections as often as they have traded out of the first rd. And coincidently not once in that time period did they select a QB in the first round.

They also lost a couple first rounders for cheating.

I present, the New York Jets:

2013 Draft Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
2014 Draft Tajh Boyd, QB, Clemson
2015 Draft Bryce Petty, QB, Baylor
2016 Draft Christian Hackenberg, QB, Penn State

And they still have a QB need, but the rest of their roster has fallen apart.

LOL. Nice!

If QBs and first round draft picks are inherently crap shoots, why put all of your eggs in one basket?

Also, consider that in 2016 Adam Shefter reported that there are more players on NFL roster who were undrafted FAs than were drafted in the first and second rounds combined. It is a myth that you can't construct a quality lineup without first round picks.

Look at the Cardinals
David Johnson - 3rd
Kerwynn Williams - UDFA
Andre Ellington - 6th?
John Brown - 3rd
JJ Nelson
Jaron Brown
Jermaine Gresham - FA
so on and for forth.

Here is who we would not have (and this is all of them)

Larry Fitzgerald
Patrick Peterson
Deone Bucannon
Robert Nkemdiche
DJ Humphries

Those are good players, but none of them franchise difference makers.

I'm trying to imagine a Cardinal secondary without PP21.

Hiroshima.
