I agree. If you look back at the presser when Haley got canned, you can tell that Pioli had been in a come to Jesus meeting with Clark right before. Even Pioli's ego isn't big enough to get another GM's job if he bombs here.
Realistically, there is only 1 solid 1st round QB in the draft pool now, and that's Luck. RG3 hasn't declared. You can rant all you want about a 1st round QB, but if the talent isn't there, why reach for someone in the 1st? You can sign a FA, but what's out there? Not much. So now you've got to make a decision between Cassel and Orton. For all we know Pioli and Orton's agent are at Applebee's enjoying a 2 for $20 right now.
