All,

Al Davis has a long history of refusing to draft QBs and instead trying to find one through free agency. The most recent example was last year when he passed over Matt Leinart and Jay Cutler for Huff. In the free agency era, I don't think he has ever taken a QB early in the draft- EVER.

During the Sugar Bowl, Howie Long said that Al Davis believed that Brady Quinn would be the third best QB in football within a few years.
