Of all the QB's on the board he goes with Logan Thomas? If you're going to take a project, you take one undrafted. This has got to be one of the biggest head scratcher drafts in a long time.

I like it, when you draft a late QB that will sit on the bench for 2 years go and draft a project with high ceiling instead of someone who will be average at best.

Announcers seem to like him a lot on NFL Network.

David Shaw was comparing him to Ben Roth

2 year project. Good mental makeup

Poor accuracy. Like a Humpty Dumpty that needs put back together
 

Gee!

Outside of Bucannon, why does it feel like this whole draft has been a bunch of projects we are drafting?

McCarron, Mettenberger and Murray...all more productive and consistent and still on the board. Blah.

Oh well, no reason to be pissed...I still have faith in this staff, if they see something good in him I sure hope they are right.

Wow. I have to think we could have traded down and still got Thomas. I just don't see other teams liking him as much as Keim.

This guy was going to be there after the draft was over or at worst in the 6th round. Terrible reach here.

When the announcers are already talking about moving the QB to TE, that's not a good sign.

Damn Bradford to the Packers next pick. Grrrr

It's hilarious how much the analysts trust BA & Tom Moore.

We really do have a legendary QB coaching system in AZ.

Well apparently on tv today they are saying AJ had a/some bad meeting(s) with executives of NFL clubs.

They (ESPN/NFLN) say Logan Thomas wants to learn, has all the tools, has the NFL mindset (personally I think this means our QB with Russell Wilson type mindset), but was also the 3rd rated TE coming out of high school and wanted to play TE.

So who knows. QB/TE with mature attitude and willingness to be coached. Sounds like a captain type mentality, but don't know if he is one.

Believe it or not, I would have gone with Michael Sam ahead of Thomas. At least Sam fills an immediate need.

And Boyd. Scratching my head on this one

Agree, can't see any other team picking him this early

Now they are 2-3 rounds smarter tan Bill Polian and the rest of the world! I'm so proud of our draft team!

Our BPA draft board is a piece of trash, we just blew up the deepest draft in years with WTF after WTF Before WTF picks.

Hey I'm a Cards fan but this is undefendable.

People saying AJ did horrible during the interviews came off like a brat and you can def see it in him.

He's average at best put a number of QBs on those Alabama teams and you still win those championships
