If the Broncos, Saints or Patriots has the number 2 pick it would be a different story. All three of those teams are definitely going to need a new QB to start in the next few years, so it wouldn't be a big deal at all for them to take a QB at 2. i am of the opinion that Sam IS the man for us, and i don't think we'll be drafting a QB that will be needing to start any time on the next 8-10 years. So for me, it's really apples and oranges with the situations.
I do understand that people will always call for the backup, but when that backup is a #2 overall pick, you have all of the media stuff as well. Not to say that has any influence on the coaches at all, as i don't think it does, but it can be frustrating from a fans perspective(Imagine being a Jets fan over the last couple of years
). I don't worry about the effect that drafting him would have on Sam at all. He is a professional and should be able to handle it.
It's more the fact that we would be wasting a #2 overall pick, in a very talented draft, on a player that is unlikely to even start. I would MUCH rather use that pick on either OL or even Watkins: players that could immediately contribute, and improve, our team. I guess it really come down to how much confidence you have in Sam as to how high you're willing to draft a QB. I just don't see it as that much of a need.
Going back to the '12 draft, if we hadn't been able to trade out of #2, at the time i was happy for us to take either Matt Kalil or Justin Blackmon(In that order) at that pick. Whilst i understand that on most peoples draft boards, RG3 would have been MUCH higher. I wouldn't have even considered it as a possibility as i don't see QB as a need, and i feel as though whilst you should take BPA, it should only be at a position of need. For the record, i was never, and still am not a big RG3 guy. More hype than substance for me. We all saw what happened this year when his ability to run was taken away from him. He looked very average(at best) from the pocket.
