[QUOTE="warhawk, post: 144420, member: 431"] Pack93z, TT's thinking in the '05 draft was fairly clear to read and it's hard to argue the reasoning. I'm not even sure he was jumping up and down when ARod fell in our laps but with BF not saying one way or the other what he was going to do there really was no other choice. I would say having a first round backup QB is a little more comforting than what a lot of teams have to work with. Will he work out when he becomes a starter? Who knows? He's a quarterback for crying out loud. No one knows. The next four guys could all be considered starters or solid backups and you cannot fault TT for injury. With our WR and Safety concerns I WISH Murphy were still here and Underwood is going to help this team. He's too good to sit. The last six guys were 5th round and up picks and while you hope to find a gem in there you know there is a reason they lasted that long. If the teams backups and starters consist of many 5th rounders and up the reality of it is we probably aren't very good. I prefer the 3rd round Hodge type backups. That's starting to get quality depth right there. The picks were not necessarily bad picks and we could be stronger right now in a couple areas of weakness if injuries didn't play a role with a couple of these guys. Certainly nothing here that makes me concerned he can't read talent. A couple of guys from the 5th round on that would have stuck would be nice but if that's the worst he does? [/QUOTE]
