2012: Trade it all for the #1 pick(Probably Luck), even 2013 picks if needed?

[Brandon Lloyd Christmas]

im down to gamble to get luck. DO IT.

[Gibbs Hog Heaven]

No, and I want a Luck or Jones as bad as anyone.

But that would be WAY too high a price to pay when we STILL have a whole bunch of other holes to fill. We just aren't in any sort of position to even consider a move like that.

Hail.

[Warhead36]

We have too many other holes to fill.

I do think we'll get a QB, we may even move up, but I don't think we'll pay that kinda ransom. In recent memory the Jaguars, Jets, Ravens, and Broncos all traded up in the 1st round to get their QB and didn't have to give up all that much.

Still too early to talk draft though we have no idea how it'll shake out.

[Boss_Hogg]

We need a young, franchise QB, someone Mike and Kyle can groom into a superstar.

I'm not down for trading the house for Luck, but maybe we can strike gold with some of the other QBs in the draft?

[BRAVEONAWARPATH]

I wouldn't trade ALL of the 2012 and 2013 drafts but I'd be willing to give up quite a bit.

Multiple 1sts, second rounders, players etc.

And forget Luck, I'd do it for Barkley as well.


This isn't the 80s where you can just plug in a "guy".

[Champskins]

Robert Griffin III... He's right up there with Luck IMO, its been discussed quite a bit on the Draft Database. Barkley is next in line with Tannehill

[dallasfan]

I would say most would feel that Rex is nothing more than a stop gap. For every good play he may make, he will make a bad play. The Skins long term success will be tied to some future QB.

2012 could be that time when we decide to invest in a future QB.

The consensus is Andrew Luck will be the #1 QB. If the season plays out like most think it will, we should be drafting anywhere from 10-20.

My poll question: Would you trade all your picks and even 2013 picks if need for the #1 pick?

You would have to hope that none of the current 0-3 teams (Dolphins, Colts, KC), except maybe the Rams and Vikes end up with the #1 pick, or it won't be for sale. No matter what you offer. Even if the Rams or Vikes end up with the #1 pick, trading your entire draft starting with a pick outside the top 15 or so, won't be enough either.

Barkley looks pretty mediocre to me.

I don´t like trading up unless you are already in the playoffs and you are really one player away from the SB (Like Atlanta did)....but I´m not that much ´in love´ with Luck. I even start to think that he might get a little hyped up. Sure he is good, but Manning like? People are talking about him like he is going to come out and just be one of the top QB's in this league. Really?

So I say noooooooooooh.

[#98QBKiller]

I actually think they purposely neglected addressing QB in this year's draft - looking forward to 2012, where the QB stock will be much better. Otherwise i agree with everything you're saying.

I'd definitely rather them wait it out and draft the QB they want rather than rush and draft one for the sake of doing it.

You haven't watched enough of Luck then.

Wes Bunting has had some great write ups on him. What he is able to do between the snap of the ball and completeing his drop back is incredible

[LightningBuggs]

Would love Luck, but that seems unlikely at this point.

Plenty of other very good QB's mentioned in this thread. Though no mention of Brandon Weeden. Liked what I saw of him this past weekend.

[Lombardi's_kid_brother]

We aren't going to be bad enough to pull this off.

I look forward to us wildly overpaying for Ryan Fitzpatrick however.

Weeden is my #4 guy, with Landry Jones right now... just worry about his age, but then again his age might be the very reason we could get him in the 3rd round. The intangibles are there. Id like to actually take the package deal of Justin Blackmon/ Brandon Weeden

[Slacky McSlackAss]

- Andrew Luck
- Matt Barkley
- Landry Jones
- Nick Foles
- Kirk Cousins
- Ryan Lindley
- Robert Griffin III
- Kellen Moore


I think we can get a really good rookie QB without trading at all.

Replace Moore with Tannehill, and that's a solid list. Add in Brandon Weeden and Case Keenum as well.
