We go into the draft looking to add a franchise QB, Philip Rivers would be our first choice. We may look to trade down though to get more picks.

Draft Results

After Jacksonville picks Rivers, we decide to try to trade down. Tennessee offers #4 and #14 for #2, our 3rd and our 5th. So we trade down. Tennessee then trades #2 to the Jets.
