Will you be shocked if we draft a qb after the 2nd round?

I don't think there's a way in world we draft a QB in the 1st or 2nd round, but what about 3rd on?
I bring this up because of what the Texans coach (O'Brien)said this week:

If McCarron, Murray, Carr, Garoppolo or Mettenberger are there in the 3rd, does Payton go after them?
My first response would be no; too many other positions of need and they obviously like what they see in Griffin.
What if the staff has evaluated a QB as a definite future replacement for Brees and they can pick him up in the later rounds?

O'Brien specifically mentions A.J. McCarron (Alabama), Zach Mettenberger (LSU), Logan Thomas (Virginia Tech), Tom Savage (Pittsburgh), and Jimmy Garoppolo (Eastern Illinois) as other quarterbacks on the team's radar. "To me, you've got 10-12 guys you really got to do a great job of evaluating and make the best pick possible wherever you pick these guys," O'Brien said. "I just see a lot of good quarterbacks. All of the guys have potential, which is a dangerous word, and you're trying to make sure you're doing what's best for your organization, what fits best for your organization when you make that pick of a quarterback."

Absolutely. Brees has another 4-5 years at least. It'd be a waste for the franchise and the prospect. Maybe in 2 years start looking for the QB of the future.

Would be a waste of a pick IMO

In the 3rd-5th round, yes I would be shocked and disappointed in that pick.
In the 6th or 7th? No not at all. If CSP wants to draft a QB and there is someone that he really likes in the late rounds, I have no problem with it.

Can't see one in the 3rd or 4th this year due to the insane amount of depth in this draft but I will not be shocked at all if we drafted one in 5,6 or 7. JMO

Best day ever no?

I have never posted on this board so I don't expect a warm welcome. I hope I am wrong but I think Brees has three good years at best. I would take a look at Murray to come in and learn. He should be a good pick in the third or fourth round. I don't think he will go any higher due to his injury.

Did we forget about Ryan Griffin? He was rostered to keep him from St. Louis, trying to pull another Mark Bulger on us. Shocked would be an understatement if we draft any QB. That being said I have been surprised by the home team years past. So

Though as an LSU fan it pains me to say it, but picking up and developing AJ might prove smart down the road. I mean, Yeah there's other holes that need to be addressed but I wouldn't be totally shocked.

I'd be OK with it. That's a very good group of QB's for the mid rounds and if they develop into good NFL QB's, they can be traded for a better pick or other players in the future.

Brees is 35 (turned 35 in january)
he has 3 more years on his contract
2014 = 35
2015 = 36
2016 = 37
i suspect we will sign him to a 2 year deal for his 38th and 39th years on planet earth... win a super bowl in either 2016, 2017, 2018 he is retiring
we arent drafting a qb IMO this season. we are ALL in this season. a backup isnt gonna help THIS year. now next draft is where we start looking into a top 3 round QB.
