Tough to predict the rounds as every draft is different. If you can get Stafford a few rounds after the big 3, may be worth it. Otherwise, I would wait until at least 8-10 QBs are off the board.

To me, there is little difference between Luck, Ryan, Foles, RG3, Cam, Brady, Romo, Cutler, Kaep, Wilson, or Rivers. Throw in the big 3 + Stafford, and that gives me 15 QBs to choose from. I can wait until 10 are gone, then grab 2 of those available in the next 2 rounds and play match-ups all year.

Perhaps you only like 7 of those listed above. In that case, I would wait until the big3 + Stafford and 4 others are off the board. You'll still likely get at least 1 of the ones you like.

Targeting a certain round for any position is amateurish IMO.

Well said. Is it really worth using a 4th-5th rd pick on one of these QBs knowing that 1-2 of these will almost assuredly be available after the 10th rd:

Luck, Ryan, Foles, RG3, Cam, Brady, Romo, Cutler, Kaep, Wilson, or Rivers.

I personally would wait til ~6th rd before I considered drafting ANY of the above QBs. If the 6th rd hits and all of the above QBs are available, at that point I would seriously consider drafting Luck/Ryan/Foles (I consider these 3 to be >>>> the rest but even that is arguable). If it is the 6th round and 10 owners have QBs then wait til the 11th and grab whoever was ignored.


I think the absolute worst thing you can do is draft a QB10-12 in the 6th rd. At that point wait til the 10th or 11th and get your qb.
