is he blind cannot he now see the ball? if you call fair catch you have nothing to fear. Your only job is to make sure you catch that ball.

Forget catching that football. He was close to the five. Just let it go. There's no play worth making there.

Kellen Clemens (06), Brett Favre (09-Trade), Mark Sanchez (09), Geno Smith (12), Christian Hackenberg (15).

Since 2006, we've spent a lot of draft resources trying to get a quarterback. You can also include Erik Ainge, Tajh Boyd, and Bryce Petty if you want even though those were mid-to-late round picks. 

This isn't an issue of devoting resources. It's an issue of being unable to develop these players into NFL caliber starters. Sanchez is lucky if he's a primary backup on most teams. That was the highest pick we've used on a quarterback. The other three who weren't acquired by trade were all second round picks. Again, some development required. Clemens simply wasn't very good. Geno was thrown immediately into the fire. Hackenberg was drafted on tools alone and probably will never be NFL-caliber anything. 

The issue isn't resources. It's who the organization is choosing to draft and how they're choosing to develop them.
