History has a message for the New York Jets: Don't do it, don't take the quarterback plunge with the 20th overall pick.
If they ignore the warning, there's a good chance they'll end up marching in a parade of fools.
The NFL is filled with cautionary tales of quarterback-needy teams blowing first-round picks because of need and greed at the position. They reach for over-rated prospects, succumbing to temptation and pressure. The seemingly endless quest for a franchise quarterback, something the Jets know about, can trick the savviest of talent evaluators into making bad decisions.
