Draft Crazy

It isn't always a "cast-off" that you bring in though. There are several teams whom drafted a QB not knowing how the draft would pan out. Look at the Cardinals. They signed Bradford to an outrageous deal, signed Glennon before Bradford as a backup who if had to start they could, then had Josh Rosen fall to them. Now Glennon makes no sense. You want to start Bradford there and develop Rosen. Look at the Jets. Signed Bridgewater not knowing McCown's plan as he was contemplating retirement, short term deal with another team or re-signing, re-signed McCown and then went with QB in rd 1. Jets were smart with their contracts given to vet QB's as they knew they would likely go QB in round 1. Cards at the time didn't figure Rosen would be there so they paid bigger money to secure the QB spot. Now they need to get rid of a contract.
