Yes, Brohm looks great roaming the sideline.
And how do you know that when/if he ever has to step in for an injured Fitz that he won't perform quite capably? He has every chance of stringing 1 or 2 good games together as a backup as anyone. I say he's doing his job well as a backup because he's not creating controversy; he's not trying to get on the field at every opportunity; he's not creating a problem in the locker room; I have seen him and Fitz talking on the sideline so I assume he's helping Fitz out; he's not costing the team a lot of money; and he's hasn't cost the team a high daft pick. How is any of that a bad backup?
So, you'd rather use a top 10 draft pick on a QB? So now you have a guy making 10's of millions of dollars, who wants to be on the field, continually looking over the starter's shoulder; just so he can get on the field and maybe play as well as Fitz is playing now?
Yes, a RT, DE, LB, etc. could be a bust; but isn't it better to try and draft for what the team actually needs? I'm not saying don't draft a QB because he might be a bust; I'm suggesting don't draft a QB because Fitz is playing well enough to be a starter. That is... we don't need a new QB on the team. Using a top 10 draft pick on a QB, at this point, is the very definition of running in place. We'd use a top 10 pick and (if we're lucky) get the same production for the next couple of years as we're currently getting from Fitz. Why not allow Fitz to maintain his level of play and use that valuable pick on a position that can help stop the run?
So, I'm advocating building on what we've already got rather than rebuilding that which is working because we don't think Fitz is the answer; even though all relevant statistics show he is the guy. Yes, maybe this is a flash in the pan year for him. But, at this point, we've all been waiting for Fitz's play to tail off and him to get pummeled by defenses. Well... we're still waiting. I say Fitz has earned the right to be the starter and we should build the other areas of the team that desperately need it until he actually does start failing.
