Where DO you get a HOF QB?

    By the way: Does anyone think Vinny Testaverde could one day be placed in the HOF?

    His career numbers are surprising: 7th all time in total yards and completions. 6th all time in attempts. 8th all time in TD passes.

    Vote, yea, or nay.

    This is mostly because he played for 21 years.... he had a couple good seasons but for the most part he was either mediocre or an interception factory. I vote nay.

    OK, but rounds 1-100 or however many there may have been have only produced 9 HOF QBs. And one guy was never drafted at all!

    So you want to put all your money on a QB in round one based on some small percentage of a percent chance that he'll eventually become a Hall of Famer?

    This team has lots of needs. If for some reason there is a QB out there that is more superior at that position than any player available at another position we need help at, then pick him... but if you need another position and there's a clearly outstanding individual at that position you've got to go for it.

    You need a good team to make a QB look great. A great QB playing on a crap team isn't going to look so hot.

    RIght on the money..Poster boy for this.. Archie Manning.. great qb..crap team.

  • I think you have to pick the best player available at your pick regardless of position. To me that is the safest way to get a HOFer.

    Vinny? Not as much of a slam dunk nope when I looked at the records, but nope, don't belong. the Seniors committee may get him in way in the future.

    8th all time in TD passes, and about 4th all time in interceptions- that's what's going to kill him in HOF voting, that, and no Super Bowl appearances or wins. His suckatonic resume from Tampa will also seriously detract. Interceptions are a funny thing- Farve ( a lead pipe lock first ballot HOFer) leads the parade in that regard, but he has a career passer rating of 85- to Vinny's 75- 75 screams M-E-D-I-O-C-R-E.

    FWIW, George Blanda and Fran Tarkenton are way up there in career ints, .
