Where would you draft them?

[mav1234]

Based on both the fact they'd be coming to play for us, which of the following QBs would you take #1 overall if they were coming out now?

Feel free to use what they have done in their NFL careers to date to help you decide, but keep in mind they wouldn't be getting drafted by whatever team did draft them, but by us.

1) Big Ben

2) Freeman

3) Matt Ryan

4) Joe Flacco

5) Stafford

6) Mark Sanchez

7) Vince Young

8) Alex Smith

edit: Feel free to say where you WOULD draft them if not #1 too, if you wish to.

I would go with Josh Freeman. He's shown awesome potential, has great touch on his passes and is a tremendous leader in that locker room.

[mav1234]

Would you have made that same decision after his first season?

[C47]

Freeman, Ryan and Flacco would be @ #1

Big Ben @ #3

Sanchez @ 6ish

and the others I wouldn't draft in the first...

[Jaxel]

Yes I think so, he was a talent, and showed it even through some bad times in the rookie year. Heck, Clausen has shown bits of promise, but all the bad has clouded some eyes about him.

Matt Ryan

The situation he came into in ATL was very similar to what we have now, so his transition should be just as smooth. Also, I think Rivera would have taken the reins off him a lot quicker than Smith, they still don't let him air it out all that much. And, for the icing on the cake, if we draft him, then ATL can't have him. :p

Hurney actually went on the radio and listed off a bunch of times Clausen showed promise. It sounded kind of like Cyberjag had taken over our GM's body, but hey.

This is an interesting way to get a look at what expectations people have for a #1 QB.

Now this is the reason to take Ryan, IMO. :D

I like Stafford but with his injury concerns 3 is WAY WAY too high....

[jtnc]

1. Matt Ryan 1st pick

2. Freeman 1st pick

3. Big Ben 5th pick

4. Joe Flacco 10th pick

5. Matthew Stafford 8th pick

6. Vince Young 18th pick

7. Mark Sanchez 1st pick of the 2nd

8. Alex Smith somewhere in the 2nd.

I wasn't exactly asking for you guys to rate them, I was asking for which of em you'd draft #1 or at least where you'd draft them. Though hey, anything works :)

edit:

I'll be honest, I was expecting more people to put Big Ben at the top of that list as going #1 overall.

I'd take Ryan #1 overall and tbh, that might be it. Would seriously look at Big Ben too, but I think it's too early on Freeman. Maybe not though!

[Marguide]

Put me down for Freeman also. Think he's gonna be a star, and his style of play could take them deep into the playoffs if they can qualify.

Big Ben would be another choice if he wasn't such a d*ckhead.

[DickolausJ]

Its hard to say who I would take number 1 considering most of them are early in there careers and without knowing who else is on the draft board with them. Its all fairly circumstantial.

Also how did you come to that list? That is an interesting assortment of quarterbacks.
