Last Season, Cam Newton and Andy Dalton were the only rookie quarterbacks to start every game last season. For the upcoming 2012 season, 4 quarterbacks were drafted to be the faces of their respective franchises and most likely will do the same thing. Andrew Luck & Robert Griffin III respectively went No. 1 and No. 2 overall; but in a head scratcher move the Redskins also drafted Michigan State QB Kirk Cousin with the 102nd overall selection. This move guarantees Kirk will be a backup QB which he does not want entering the NFL. RG3 is the most talented QB in the draft, but Redskins management has concerns his durability as he missed the 2009 season thus drafting Cousin.
In another Draft shocker, the Dallas Cowboys traded up from No. 14 to No. 6 to draft LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne. Cowboys, who already have Mike Jenkins under contract, signed free agent CB Brandon Carr. Dallas now has an improved secondary with this trio for the upcoming season.
