Little girl hands Kreig DID have small hands and a shvt ton of fumbles. He also had nearly 40,000 career yds and over 260 TD's.

Bit of a compiler I'll give ya.

3 time pro bowler, best QB or top 2 last year, I think his record with Arizona is something like 30-10. Had that injury in 2005 that put his career in jeopardy otherwise imo he would've been a no doubt Franchise QB type of guy.

Maybe but I consider health a skill. Not being able to stay healthy for most of his career really diminished his value.

In that regards then Id agree because it really highlights the risk of moving up for one single person.

I will say that Matt Ryan's YPA is 7.2 and Luck's is 7.0. Stafford is 7.0. Carson Palmer is 7.4.

I also think its fair to point out that its possible that the Colts have already ruined Andrew Luck with Carr syndrome of getting hit way too much. Or as Rams fans call it "Bulgerized"

I am not trying to disparage Palmer. He's had some really good seasons.

Luck should take a lot of blame for the hits takes.

If I was a GM I would never trade up for a QB ... It's just way too risky....

Its a catch-22 for a guy like Luck but more importantly...

Have you tried your 15 year exercise on rd2, rd3, rd4, etc? Its really ugly IIRC. People act like Tom Brady and even Russell Wilson are easy to get. They are 1 in 20 at best.

That's the point. Even if Goff/Wentz works out, you're creating holes in several other positions based on the lack of picks available.

I'm sure the Eagles are fine with having holes if their QB turns out to be a stud. Sure beats have a solid team with NO QB.

Tell that to Romo, at least Marino went to a Super Bowl.
You can add Romo and a number of other QB's who's holes on their teams prevented them from winning. I'm just saying the price the Eagles gave up they better hope whoever they pick turns into an ELITE QB.

We'll see. I've watched every snap he's had in College and NFL so there's no need to give me a recap on his less than average NFL career. To be fair, this coming year will be the best group of wideouts/TE's he's ever had and probably the best OL as well. Also, looking back at his unlucky streak of injuries and his up and down play, the later half of 2015 to me looked like a solid improvement. Who knows, maybe it will carry over into this season.
Every NFL snap??? Every NFL snap???

I've only seen about 25% of them and that's all it took for me to know he ain't great. Maybe you'll come around eventually. Could just be blinded by your Sooner glasses

And not saying it will work out. There is a very real chance he is another Couch/Leaf/Russell. Then it is a major fail. But I'd rather they take the best shot they have at the best franchise QB they have a chance for, then run the much higher risk they don't find that guy.
From your lips to God's ears:pray:

Ive never been a fan of a team. So I just like to watch OO players. I can shoot the shit all day about just about every player but yes, I do have a sweet spot for Sooners.

What if the Eagles jumped up ahead of Dallas to draft Ramsey? :shocked:
Then their entire front office will be murdered by their fans by week 1...

I agree,

I agree, but the Rams need a good QB to make it to the playoffs. Don't forget they haven't been to the playoffs in 13 years and haven't had a winning season in 11 years. The Rams are pretty solid on defense and they drafted some good talent on the O-line last year. The Rams have +55,000 season tickets sold for the 2016 season in Los Angeles and have to start winning NOW, or they will lose their fanbase in a hurry.

The Rams made the playoffs 11 years ago. And beat the Hawks in a WC game.

Thanks for the correction. Actually that was the 2004 season, where the Rams were 8-8.

I think you could be right, for a guy named Luck he sure has been unlucky in the NFL, getting drafted by a organization like the Colts.

I always been thinking of what comes first the egg or the chicken? If you build up a good team, then try to land a QB, your record is to good to land him. If you pick the QB first he gets " Bulgerized"
