  • if we pick another qb in next year's draft(with all the other positional needs we have) i'll personally drive to cleveland and knock that ugly fxxking moustache off holmgren's big fat mug. you need to shut up with the draft another qb talk. what do you think we did last year?

    i wasn't a mccoy fan to begin with, but to see him drop in the draft and for us to get him where we did, i think was a phenonmenal job by our FO. and to say he isn't proven? are you for real? he came into his pro career starting against the steelers (i know we all hate them, but you have to say they are ONE of the best teams in the league) and held his own. probably better than delhomme or wallace could do. he wasn't shaky. the team loves him. now if he's injury prone that's another thing but looking at his history that's not a factor. why would you waste a pick on another fxxking qb?

    get real. every draft pick is important. be thankful for what you've got and not look to always 'trade up'.

    I think his ability to get the team behind him is really important. Ryan Mallett in particular doesn't strike me as being ready to do that.

    listen i love a lot of these qbs that will be available next year but that's not one of our 'essential' needs at this time. how about trying to land one of the 2 top wrs next year as first priority? then a RT?

    Am I for real? You are trying to convince us that a guy with 127 career passing attempts is a proven commodity. Again, I like McCoy but let's not pretend that he is all pro. I honestly don't want us to draft a QB but if Locker falls and Holmgren (who I trust with QBs) thinks that he is a game changer then I would have no problem with the decision. In a perfect world, the staff will have enough info and game footage to be comfortable with McCoy and draft a Jones/Baldwin.

    ok. last thing i want to do is bicker back and forth with someone who roots for the same team i do with BUT this holmgren almighty and gruden almighty shit has to stop. what QB has holmgren molded to be great? brett fahrt who's stats are over-blown because he's been in the league for Fing forty years? matt hasselback? seneca wallace? c'mon man!

    even if your argument is true, holmgren liked mccoy enough to draft him last year so why can't we live with that if it's the old "in holmgren we trust"?

  • The only QB i would draft in this class is Luck, that kid will be a STUD in the NFL, and the Bills will draft him or Bungels will, besides that we need to take the biggest, fastest badass DE in the draft and then pick up a WR in the second. I know that will not sit well with a lot of people...But if Ryan leaves to become a HC somewhere are Defense will take a step back with out some studs up front

    because of the chance of a lock out i don't think there'll be to many HC coaching changes. sure i like mallet and luck and a couple of other qbs who'll probably be great in the nfl. BUT we just drafted a guy last year. are we gonna do a matt millen and just draft wrs first pick every year? (or qbs or cbs) HELL NO. now we move on to another position of need, which is giving colt mccoy some ofensive weapons and to protect his right side. we'll go defense in the later rounds......

    I haven't really looked at draft predictions but we need a pass rusher on defense too. I don't know if any really good ones are turning pro. And obviously a big time WR. Even if god forbid Colt turns a 180 and sucks for the rest of his career, we can still work on filling the holes in other key positions. Quarterbacks are a dime a dozen so why not go for the "safer" picks (if there even are such things) and stop putting all our hopes and dreams towards one position. So I vote that we don't draft a QB...

    I know what you are trying to say here, but a dime a dozen would imply that QB's are the easiest talent to judge and pick up in the draft meaning that it doesn't matter because you can find a good QB anywhere.

    ok. last thing i want to do is bicker back and forth with someone who roots for the same team i do with BUT this holmgren almighty and gruden almighty shit has to stop. what QB has holmgren molded to be great? brett fahrt who's stats are over-blown because he's been in the league for Fing forty years? matt hasselback? seneca wallace? c'mon man!

    even if your argument is true, holmgren liked mccoy enough to draft him last year so why can't we live with that if it's the old "in holmgren we trust"?

    I would say Young, Favre, and Hasselbeck is about as good as it gets. That is 21 probowls, 4 superbowls, 5 MVPs. He also helped a bit with Montana. Questioning his success with QBs will not shine a positive light on your argument. As far as drafting McCoy, if he truly thought he was the guy, he wouldn't have waited until the 3rd round.

    Once again, I'm not saying we should draft a QB or that McCoy isn't the guy (I loved what he did when he was in there), I'm just saying that I would have no problem if Holmgren and Heckert decide to go after a QB that they think is a game changer.

    Holmgren didn't have anything to do with the draft except for McCoy. Heckert didn't like Colt and he didn't plan on drafting him until after a DT that Heckart wanted to pick with the pick used for Colt was picked by someone else and Holmgren told Heckert that he was drafting McCoy instead of picking someone else to take.
