You'll never acquire a franchise QB if you never try to.
You can sit back and compare Freeman to Russell all you want, but that doesn't mean the kid is a bust.
Only a fool would give up on a 24 year old with 3 years experience who has this much untapped talent.

So far, none of the QBs they've passed on has shown themselves as a franchise QB, so there wasn't some failure just because non-franchise QBs were allowed to slide by. If Freeman becomes another Aaron Rodgers (falling QB who turns out to be franchise level), your point will have merit. Right now, it doesn't.
