I notice that you arbitrarily chose 30 years. I'm sure that was just a coincidence and that you didn't deliberately exclude Len Dawson, who led the Chiefs to three AFL championships and two Super Bowls. I realize that it's ancient history and not really relevant to today's NFL, but if you're going to go back 30 years to make a point, you might as well be honest about it and go back 40 years.

By the way, on that list above, there's only TWO of them that played in the modern NFL era and Favre was actually traded to the Packers BEFORE the modern era of free agency.
The only QB that could even remotely be considered a "recent" example is Kurt Warner. Ironically, he won his 1st Super Bowl with the team that "drafted" him (he wasn't drafted, he was a free agent, but it was his first NFL team).

I think we all forgot about Drew Brees. He's not bad for a retread quarterback. Admittedly he is the exception and not the rule, but it proves pretty convincingly that it is POSSIBLE to win the whole thing with a retread quarterback. I think the Saints are pretty glad to have their retread.
Now that I've made that point, I think I'll stop arguing in this thread for two reasons: (1) I want the Chiefs to draft Geno Smith, and (2) It just feels wrong to be on the same side of this argument with Tony77. His arguments are pathetic.
