So after Haloti Ngata breaks Brady in half, and your stolen legacy team loses to the Ravens in the playoffs yet again, how long are you going to disappear this time? The true measure of a man shows up in adversity, which is why I guess you never show up at all after your team loses. Then slowly and quietly, months later, you crawl back in with your inability to perceive the lack of a welcome mat intact.

He used to get so mad at me on JI when I'd point that out to him.

The other option is, you play the Geno and washed-up veteran cards, ala Seattle with Dilfer, Hasselback, Whitehurst, Jackson, et al, who built their team up until they finally found their Russell Wilson in the 3rd round. That's a torturous way to do it...which is the lesser of the two evils? Having a franchise QB drop out of the sky and into our laps is most likely not going to happen any time soon . The last time that opportunity came up, we took Kenny O. The idea that coming out of college football each year there is only 1 or 2...maybe 3 guys who could be good, successful NFL quarterbacks does not sit well with me. I think there are likely more guys than that but few teams have the patience to really give those guys a solid look, to "develop" them, etc. It's certainly not a slam dunk but it's definitely possible to get starting caliber talent outside the Top 10 picks of the draft. Guys like Joe Flacco (taken 18th overall), Andy Dalton (35), Tony Romo (Undrafted), Aaron Rodgers (24), Tom SparklePony (199), Drew Brees (32), Derek Carr (36), Russell Wilson (75), etc. prove that it's possible to land a better than decent guy without having a premium pick. I like the idea of taking a shot every year until you find "your guy." Taking a chance on Brett Hundley, Bryce Petty, or Garrett Grayson wouldn't be a bad idea in my opinion. I think we also have to sign a veteran in FA. Depending upon if they hit the market, I could see the Jets possibly bringing in a Ryan Mallett (injury), Jake Locker (injury), or Matt Flynn type. Other interesting names floating out there include Hoyer (although I think he goes back to Cleveland) and Marky Mark. Quite honestly, I think Locker could be a guy who benefits from a change of scenery. He never had a stable offensive system and he got hurt a few times, never playing many games. I'm still not sure anyone knows what he can become. Geno, Jake Locker, Brett Hundley might not be a bad way to go into 2015.

A later round QB like Petty would be fine, but enough of starting these kids too soon. Let them acclimate, and then give them a shot.

It really isn't a bad idea. As 23 stated earlier, many teams just don't have the patience or the balls to develop someone. I would not have a problem with that at all, as long as we are continuing to build out the core components of the team.
