Anyone think we have another Tom Brady/Ben Roethlisberger situation on our hands this year? Namely the Jets, Cardinals, Ravens and 49ers. Other teams will be experimenting soon in the Titans, Lions, and even the Texans were talking about it.

Let's look at it by team:
Jets: No, if albe to keep playing then Chad will be the guy going forward for the next 5-10 years.
Cardinals: Unless Leinhart is available when they draft then Warner is the guy when healthy.
Ravens: Nobody worse than Boller but sadly nobody better either.
49ers: Smith is coming, give it time.
Titans: If McNair is healthy then not for awhile but another serious injury and Volek could have the job.
Lions: It's up to Harrington wether or not he wants to remain the guy in the motor city.
Texans: Get Carr a line that holds up and he'll be fine with Johnson and Davis there.
I think the Skins and maybe even Packers could make changes in the next few years.

Ohh yeah the Pack. If ANYTHING, I see the Packers winning the Leinhart sweepstakes before anyone...pack ends up 4-12 this season. They get the overall first pick, and get Leinhart. Lose Favre, but dont miss a beat...

But what about Rodgers?
It's unless to have two rookie QB's as the starter/back up.
I know Rodgers will be in his second season but he's never started. I think they'd go defense in the draft.
I think Green Bay picks top 7-10 but doesn't get the #1 overall pick.
The Jets very well could though.

The only teams that will end up with Leinart are either Jets or Ravens. The Ravens and Jets are having poor seasons right now. The Ravens have zero offense especially when Jamal Lewis has another injury including the ankle surgery. The Ravens have solid receivers and a aging offense line. The Jets have a below average season and Curtis Martin's time is running out. Then you have a 40-year old quarterback in Vinny Testaverde and a injury-prone quaterback in Chad Pennington. Jets and Ravens desperately needs a young quarterback who can make an impact.

Incorrect.
Right now as it stands with the top ten picks:
1. Texans/Packers
They HAVE to go O-Line here on Capers needs fired. As for Green Bay they need some defense or Bush to offset the loss of Green.
Noway they can resign him in good faith.
2. Saints(2-7)
Here's were Leinarts first chance of selection comes, you're paying too much for Horn to keep allowing Brooks to be your guy.
3-6 is a cluster of the Niners,Jets,Ravens and Cards.
Reggie Bush will be taken somewhere in that lot as will AJ Hawk.
