Yea. i doubt we will draft a QB early based on the moves we have made this offseason on offense. When you have an aging QB you try to surround him with protection and players that can prolong his career. Up until now Drew has made a lot of no name players look above average. As he ages and as his accuracy declines he is going to need time in the pocket and he is going to need guys playing at skill positions to step up. I see them drafting a WR, a legit #1 in the first if they do go for offense at all.

I've read the front office doesn't have a clue as to what they are doing so that fits perfectly! All that dead money they have tied up in Mccown will surely be the end of the franchise.
