2010 NFL Draft QB Depth - Who Do You Think the Redskins Should Take In the Middle of the Draft?

PrintHere's hoping we don't use our #4 overall on a signal-caller...but we have trampled this topic lately.
I know we have been talking about this ad nauseam, but I thought a good topic to toss out there on this Monday morning is:
Which of the mediocre "best of the rest" quarterbacks do you think the Redskins could bring in this year with a middle-round draft pick and turn into a starter?
Everyone knows who I like: Dan LeFevour. His Pro Day was last week and all accounts seem to point to average arm strength, average footwork and average accuracy. This is good news and bad news in my opinion. On the heels of his performance at the Senior Bowl, LeFevour seemed to be poised to be "the guy" who could make a case to be the 3rd or 4th best quarterback in the draft. It was a risky move to decline to throw the ball at the Combine, and it looks like that decision will ultimately cost him, as his Pro Day failed to blow up many skirts among NFL GM's. The good news for us is that he might slip a round or two to the 4th or 5th where he may very well belong. The bad news is that he might be more of a project than I originally thought. I am going to stay in his camp for the time being, but I am making myself available to be swayed to one of the other guys by the Hogs Haven experts.
Let's hear your best case for: Tony Pike, Jarrett Brown, John Skelton, Jevan Snead, Zac Robinson, and I guess even Colt McCoy. Feel free to add your own guy into the mix. One thing is clear to me: the order these guys come off the board in this year's draft will have more to do with the personal preferences of coordinators and position coaches around the league than the actual or perceived skill levels of each player.

OK, but...
One thing is clear to me: the order these guys come off the board in this year’s draft will have more to do with the personal preferences of coordinators and position coaches around the league than the actual or perceived skill levels of each player
Shouldn’t that be every position and every year! Teams which succeed build a system on defense and offense then draft players which best fit the system in the later rounds. Which is still the best player available, what’s not said is it’s the best player avaialble for the system being deployed.
The first round players are the ones which teams should build the systems on, at least in the early part, the teams which obviously don’t have a system in place (See Redskins the last 10 years). Shanahan is establishing the system, which is why the #4 pick is unique in he will be adding a player who fits the system best, not picking a player to build a system around. Too long until the draft, get here!
Should is a good word to use there, doc...
I guess I used that statement to underline the lack of a definitive pecking order with these guys.

I'm still a LeFevour fan
as far as the QBs go. He has good size, a sturdy frame, great athleticism and good instincts.
I'm interested in getting on his bandwagon.
"By far the worst performers on the team are in the front office." – Sally Jenkins
Leave QB's alone in this draft!
Todd McShay has come out on record and said the only QB worth drafting in the first two rounds is Bradford. Now I’m more of a Mike Mayock guy myself but actions by other teams support his conclusions that this is a weak QB class. I mean Seattle just traded for a guy (AND paid him btw) who’s never thrown a pass in a regular season game.
With only 5 picks in this draft and plenty holes to fill, QB isn’t the most pressing need. How about drafting two OL? Okung and the OT from UMASS perhaps. I forget what year it was but we drafted Mark May and Russ Grimm back to back and that was the start of something great. Just saying.

This post isn't about drafting QBs in the first two rounds
Carful reading before commenting reveals this important detail.
LOL
I’m against drafting any QB in any round in this draft. The way I see it is that we could have Peyton Manning back there and it wouldn’t matter because he’d be getting crushed the whole time.
If we had a full complement of picks then maybe we take a QB in the later rounds but again we need depth across the board on our roster and I see any pick for a QB as a waste.

Then you are in the minority,because most people want the Redskins to draft a QB
That is what Shanahan/Allen/Snyder want is a QB in the 2010 NFL DRAFT.J.C. is not that good of a QB yet? and they are running out of patience with him.

I agree...with the responses.
The comments might not match the nickname, but at least the sentence structure and punctuation does.
We will see when the Redskins draft in the 1st and 2nd rounds.
Redskins will draft Bradford if he is there at #4.IF he is not there,I"M curious to see if they trade down or select an OT,DT with 1st round selection.There going after either C.McCoy or T.Tebow with 2nd round selection.

I'm sorry
I didn’t realize basing your arguments on Todd McShay, like he has any credibility, is bringing something of substance to the topic.
Credibility
I thought my Seattle example of them going after Charlie Whiethurst instead of drafting a QB in this draft backed up my point. Look at Browns, Jake Delhome and Seneca Wallace.
Also coming out and saying McShay is dumb or whatever, without any substance to support your comment doesn’t bring anything to this topic. Bottom line is that OL should trump any other need.

I agree Oline trumps every other need
but in the 4th and 5th rounds everyone is going to be a project, so I’m willing to let them just go best player available. If that happens to be LeFevour, great. I want our 1st and 2nd round picks to be linemen. You can’t really expect to fill ‘needs’ in the later rounds.
All we have drafted on the line is
Projects. Most didn’t even make the squad, or even play on our garbage line. But on that note, don’t we already have a project QB with Colt?
I don't think Brennan was a project.
I think he was an ‘insurance’ policy for Vinny…since Zorn’s good with QBs, if things didn’t work out with JC, then he could claim to have given Zorn the next big thing to work with.
I’m not saying that makes sense mind you, but not much in Vinny’s world did (I’m glad to put that in past tense).
good Point.
But you can’t keep relying on finding the diamond in the rough, like we have with the line.
I can just vividly remember that Sunday night game with the Ravens when they went on a man of a drive on the ground and just manhandled the line liker children in the fourth. One pass. a 30 yard strike when we put 11 in the box. It was a Gibbs like drive and Okung is the start of our own drive like that.

Here’s a bit more ‘substance’
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/03/31/todd-mcshay-backlash-builds/
leave qbs alone!
none of these guys are an obvious upgrade over what we have now, with 2 exceptions…Bradford in the 1st and Clausen in the second. We can discuss 3rd string qb’s when we have all the other holes in the depth chart filled.

Since when is Bradford such a sure thing?
Since St. Louis declared him #1 worthy? If Bradford is available at 4 and we take him, it means we passed on Okung, Suh or McCoy. Which to me is stupid. If Clausen is there at any point and we take him, that means we passed on every single player below him, and that makes me mad too.
Serious business.
Clausen
“Passed on every single player below him…” – Yeah, well, that’s the way it works. Clausen is a pretty good prospect, and if we can’t get Bradford (which would mean we got Okung or some other top OT at #4), it would be a no brainer to take him Jimmy at 36.
they are almost all upgrades what with we have now,J.C. is not doing his job or we would not be looking for a new QB
we will end up making a blockbuster trade in the draft just to get 1 of these QBs

b/c Casey Clausen will “do his job” behind Stephen Heyer & Levi Jones
riiiiiight.
"By far the worst performers on the team are in the front office." – Sally Jenkins
Clausen and Heyer
If Jimmy finds out that he’ll be working behind Heyer, he might run to Canada to avoid the Skins. You’re right though, Jimmy (and Sam) would make plays, even behind Levi and Heyer. Shanahan is running all over the country scouting QBs – he must not be totally satisfied with what he has. He probably does not accept a shaky O-line as an all purpose excuse.
your right last year they could have drafted phil loadholt and did.nt and drafted kevin barnes loadholt sure would have helped us ..
Loadholt was a second rounder
Barnes a third. You are right we could have drafted Loadholt if we had retained our second rounder last year.

Love the idea of going OL OL in rounds 1 and 2
Our rebuilding mode is going to last for more than one off season. I thought I had heard that this was a deep draft for OL. If that is the case, let’s go big and use our first two picks on OL. Unless something crazy happens and someone drops in our lap in round 2.
Let’s not forget that we are missing 2 OT’s. My apologies to Heyer’s mom.
hypothetical drafting a QB in the second rd would be ideal. where is Tebow projected? i want Okung in the first and Tebow in the second (for his leadership capabilities). GO REDSKINS!!!!
Then hire Tebow as a coach when he retires.
(for his leadership capabilities).

Id say draft offensive line first
The reason im saying this is next year i believe that a QB by the name of steven sheffield is going to be in the draft he plays for texas tech this kid has such a great arm and accuracy it is unbelievable i have seen this kid play and he is way better than bradford and tebow or even clausen or colt mccoy everyone should check this kid out he would fit in perfect for the redskins next year plus give us time to rebuild our offense a little before bring that kid in if we pass on him we would be crazy .
OK, Mom Sheffield.
But we might make Mrs. “LJP” Campbell mad.
Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
Gil Brandt
Says Bradford’s Pro Day today was ‘near flawless’ and the best he’s seen since a private workout for Troy Aikman.
My later-round QB pick is Tony Pike.
http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-draft/09000d5d8172b4d7/First-Draft-Tony-Pike
6-6, intelligent, needs to bulk up a bit. Sounds like he has the right mentality though.
"Let's hear your best case for: Tony Pike, Jarrett Brown, John Skelton, Jevan Snead, Zac Robinson, and I guess even Colt McCoy."
I dont know why you just slighted McCoy. He is the most acomplished and best QB out of all of those. Brown, Skelton, Robinson and Snead are all far away from even being on a NFL team’s depth chart. McCoy will be taken in the second round and can start this season.
Orakpo!!! Russel Okung next year!
Because he is a 2nd round pick
and the rest of the guys are later round prospects. Wasn’t a slight, you’re just being a bit sensitive.
It was deliberate, but I tend to agree with your beef...
Colt McCoy has done more than just about all these guys…yet he is more and more the forgotten guy as we hit April…That may change, and he could make a lot of teams and their fans look bad for sure.

He could be
the true sleeper in this year’s draft.
Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
Eagles fan here.
You have a decent QB and you have nothing going for you in the way of offensive line.
Listen, Jason Campbell isn’t an amazing QB. However, he has done pretty well with the limited weapons at his disposal and a joke of an offensive line. He makes the throws and limits mistakes. Now your WR and TE corps are starting to look decent and you wanna change QBs?
Unless the Rams really are that stupid and let Bradford go to you, I don’t think you should take a QB. Campbell has the tools to be a pretty good (maybe even top 10 QB). Give him some protection and see what he can do. While you’re at it, do something about your RB situation. You’d be sitting pretty if this were 2005, but alas…
I am the people's troll :3™
Lemme rephrase it so I’m 100% clear. I don’t think any QB in this draft besides Bradford will be as good as Campbell, so looking at anything more than a career backup is silly.

Sigh
Wasn’t that what Rex Grossman was brought in for?

That was a 1 year deal.

Most of us agree that Campbell should be our starter in 2010
this post is looking for a late round project, not a guy who is going to come in and contribute this season. You did this with Kolb, you know.
Man, everyone wants to comment without actually reading the post these days.
I guess Tom Brady
Is the best Backup of all time.
Carver...you get the gold star today

Yeah, it’s a career backup you delude yourself into thinking will be better than someone like Jason Campbell.

The majority of the site seems to believe
JC is a capable quarterback and we’d much rather draft to bulk up our O-Line.
However, we see the possibility of the the new coach wanting to start his new regime with a new quarterback.
That being said, this post had nothing to do with Bradford of Claussen (the two picks that keep getting thrown to the Redskins in a variety of Mocks) This post was simply the mid to late options the Skins could draft to groom.
I personally believe Colt Brennan is a sufficient project QB, but again the front office could take a shine to one of these mid-round Kevin Colbs if you will.
Now go throw snowballs at Santa.
Kolb was taken in the second round and was not taken as a “project”. He was taken with full intention to make him into the franchise QB. You’re not helping your case by comparing any of these players to Kolb.
I am the people's troll :3™
Yeah, um, that generally doesn’t happen. That’s why those players get drafted higher. I’m not saying it’s impossible to get lucky, but nobody drafts QBs later than the middle of the second round with realistic expectations to make them a franchise QB.
I am the people's troll :3™
You obviously have no idea what I’m trying to convey. If there’s any way I could make myself easier to understand for you, I’d be happy to do it. I can use smaller words, or I can try drawing pictures. I’m not that great of an artist, but I’m really trying to help you out here.
I am the people's troll :3™
I admit that I was mistaken where Kolb was drafted
but maintain my point that we aren’t looking for a franchise quarterback here. Beyond that, I’m not sure why you’re so concerned with a bunch of redskins fans discussing their 4th and 5th round draft prospects, other than the fact that you’re probably just an asshole like every other Philadelphia fan.
this post is looking for a late round project, not a guy who is going to come in and contribute this season. You did this with Kolb, you know.
Wow, I just saw that you said this. Kolb wasn’t a “late round project”. He was drafted with the FOURTH pick in the SECOND round. He was drafted with the intent of replacing our franchise QB.
So you are admitting you want to replace your franchise QB. Well, I’m going to just repeat what I said earlier, and that is this: You’re not going to improve your QB situation with anyone in this draft other than Bradford or possibly Clausen. You already have a project QB on your roster. Protect Campbell and give him a running game and you’ll forget you ever wanted a “project” QB.
I am the people's troll :3™
We never said we wanted a project QB dude
We’re just discussing mid to late round options.
While we’re on the subject McNabb is a beast and you Philly fans are dicks for treating him like you do..
Well, I’m glad you felt the need to comment on the way Philly fans treat McNabb. I agree with you. I hope you meant that to personally offend me, because it didn’t in the least.
I am the people's troll :3™
Sorry sport
I hate to disappoint, but I don’t get my jollys hurting people’s feelings over the internet. I’m into other cool things like getting laid.
By project QB
we mean a late round pick that can work under the Shanny’s for several years to see if he turns out to be any good. Like a Tom Brady situation. I think you’re confused as to what we mean by project.
Oh, so now you’re looking for Tom Brady. Tom Brady wasn’t a project, he was winning the goddamned lottery.
I am the people's troll :3™
I think it’s dumber to say you’re hoping to land Tom Brady than it is to say you’re looking for a project. You should go back to that.

Well when the Redskins Organization
decides to take cues from the people’s troll we’ll be sure to give you a ring Mr. YomJo.
Hey, I’m just stating the truth. I’ve got friends who are Redskins fans who would say the same thing.
I am the people's troll :3™
I'm not arguing with you
In fact you’d have to look pretty hard to find someone on here who would argue that Snyder has held us back for quite a few years now..
OK, so once you realize that I wasn’t meaning to insult you, then there was no harm in what I said.
I am the people's troll :3™
I never said I was harmed
I was being sarcastic man, you’re talking about outdated stereotypes perpetuated by the national media and you hit us with a Dan Snyder sucks comment? Come on man, bring your A game.
Right, because it’s a stereotype that the Redskins have what, 2 playoff wins under Snyder? Is it more or less? I really don’t know, I’m guessing here.
The “Eagles fans are assholes” shtick is just lame though. Every city has fans that treat people the same way. I’m not defending them, at all. On the contrary, I hate them. But to say I’m an asshole because I’m an Eagles fan is childish and I’m not going to take you seriously if you can’t even give me the chance to be treated like an individual, and not like the mythical stereotypical asshole fan.
I am the people's troll :3™
My roommate in college is from Philly and is an Iggles fan
He’ll be the first to tell you guys are assholes. Embrace it man. I love him and his family to death, but when it comes to football season we call them assholes and they call us deadskins. It is what it is, we’re not on the UN here, we’re talking offseason football. If I saw you at a game I’d buy you a beer. It’s all in sport dude
I agree. There are assholes that happen to be Eagles fans. There are also assholes that happen to be Redskins fans. However, I don’t say all Redskins fans are assholes, because that would make ME an asshole. So, enjoy your beer, asshole.

Maybe he could. I don’t know. I’m still undecided on if I would rather have the Eagles trade McNabb or not. I’m OK with either decision and I’m less than qualified to really give my opinion, but I was definitely originally leaning towards staying with McNabb. However, it’s hard to argue that QBs are hard to find and if the Eagles like Kolb so much then you can’t really stick with McNabb.

I’d like to thank you for speeding up the last 20 minutes of my work day. But I’m past my time, so in the interest of not working for free I’m going to call it a day. Later on
most of who?
good god son the redskin nation is so far from being monolithic on anything…that cracked me u[ more than anything I’ve ever read here
I didn't poll all of Redskin nation
but the majority of the regular commenters on this site share that sentiment.
I'm not excited about using a mid-round pick on a QB
But if one caught Shanny’s eye I would be cool with it. We could use a guy with some marginal talent to develop as a quality backup or possible starter down the road. I like how Holmgren used to develop young guys(Hassleback, Brunell) behind Favre. Never hurts to have lots of options at QB regardless of how you feel about JC.
Drafting a QB
It’s all speculation at this point. No one and I mean NO ONE knows what Shanny is going to do come draft day. It doesn’t matter who you have at QB (Peyton, Brady, Brees, etc.) if you can’t protect him he can’t make plays! That is good ole common sense. We have to address the most pressing need and that is our SORRY O-line. Shanny might take someone like Pike or Tebow in the 2nd (if available) but I really think he will address the O-line first and foremost. We haven’t acquired much in the way of free agency to help our O-line so, following the laws of common sense, I really think we will draft some Tackles and maybe even a guard to add depth. Our Defense is slightly above average and we have some play makers on offense (on occasion). All this speculation about QB’s is just plain silly. Don’t get me wrong, Campbell is NOT the future of the Redskins, but he is a moderately capable QB who needs an O-line to protect his soft rear end. We can worry about a QB sometime in the future. Now is not the time.
soft rear end???
Campbell has taken a beating and played through bad ankles, and not missed too many starts. Say what you will, but he is not soft!

JC's rear...
Say what you will trying to goad people into an argument, I attended several games ( home and away, those I didn’t attend I watched on TV ) and I saw him fold under pressure more times than I could count. He held onto the ball WAY too long and took a sack when he could have thrown the ball into the sidelines. It is easy to sit in the stands or in a recliner and say he should have done this or he should have done that, it is not easy to be on the field and to actually do it. For that I have the upmost respect for him. Now if you guys would get your heads out of your posterior orifices and READ what I origionally posted, you would realize that I am okay with Campbell for THIS COMING YEAR! What the Skins need to address is the O-line. Drafting a QB is NOT a priority. Draft one in the 2nd and make a project out of him. 4 out of our 5 picks need to be O-line to add strength and depth.
For ANY QB...
Our Schedule seems BRUTAL this year. BUT…… 2011 seems a helluva lot easier.
Line this year. Stud RB next year (and another lineman) along with Mature WR’s and TEs…. It;s going to get better!!!!!!
To state the obvious
It;s going to get better!!!!!!
Because it is absolutely impossible to get any worse. Think Swinging Gate, if you are not sure about what I said.
Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
Why no love for Jarrett Brown?
I think this guy could be a great late-round project QB, tons of upside. He’s got a fast, fluid throwing motion, is pretty accurate, and can sling it downfield. He’s got solid QB size at 6’4" 223 and can obviously run well (Pat White’s successor, think Pat White if you took 25% of his running ability and added it to his passing ability). His senior season he put up 2144 yards with a 63.2 completion %, another 452 yards on the ground, and lead WVU to a 9-3 record. I call him a project because he only started one season and played in that WVU spread, but like I said—TONS of upside and will probably go pretty late in the draft.
i like lefvevour but??
we already have a project his name is campbell but i dont think lefvevour will be a project draft okung and see if danny boy is still around ..
Yeah, I like him as a prospect
but don’t think we should spend our 2nd on him

Draft
Hope for Bradford at #4 (if gone, take Okung or best OT). If Bradford is gone at #4, take Clausen, McCoy, or Tebow at #36 If they’re all gone, take another O-line at 36, and hope for Lefevour or Pike or other promising QB in round 4 or 5. If can’t get any QB, go with JC, Rex and Colt. I don’t see the point of drafting any defensive player in the first five rounds of the draft – we need offense far more than defense, which is strong, and not likely to be materially improved in the draft.
I hope you are terribly disappointed that
we don’t take any QB this year – thus making me very happy! :)
