Honestly I would NEVER take a QB in the first at least 2 if not 3-4 rounds in a standard scoring league.
The drop of from a top 5 qb and then the next 5-7 is very minimal when compared to RB's.
You have a much larger drop off from runningbacks you would take in the first few and mid rounders.
Make sure you draft on value more than names.

I would much prefer my QB be Schaub,Rivers,Romo (somebody along those lines)
and my best running back be Peterson,Foster,Johnson,Charles(somebody along those lines)

AS OPPOSED TO:

my qb be Manning,Brady,Rodgers,Vick
and my best RB be Deangelo Williams,Knowshon Moreno or on of the majority of the league guys in a platoon running format.

I do honestly about 8 leagues(3 VERY competitive)every year and have a lot of success with this formula, but I am only one opinion bud.
