This is old school thinking. QB's are the currency of football...period. Any time you can get QB's that might be able to start for you or another team (even if in perception, only - i.e. Matt Flynn), you get them. You can flip QB's into BETTER WR's, CB's, DT's, etc. than the 2nd, 3rd or 4th round pick you're going to get.
I fear the year's with Carl (and now Pioli) have had the latent effect of training our fan-minds into believing we can't wasted picks on QB's because we have too many other holes. QB's have the potential to yield future picks that will fill more holes than your existing picks ever will.
You have to bite the bullet at some point and start the cycle of picking up QB's on a consistent basis. The first few years will hurt on the opportunity-cost side...but the long-term benefits are worth it.
