Ok, let's just assume that Carl Peterson didn't have the patience to have the team develop a QB for his 25 drafts, the reason he never drafted a single one in the first. Was it Marty? So lets just dismiss that two decades of evidence, like it never happened. Cool. We will put that on Marty and Carl.
But first thing out of the chute, ***** knowing he has plenty of leeway and time with the fans since he is new, trades for a recycle QB in Cassel. Ok, that is just coincidence that it follows the 26 year established trend, has to be, right?
Ok, so he sticks with the guy so long he fails in four years, and a new regime is brought in. What do they do, to fix the most important position on the field? Yep, same thing, bring in a recycled failure.
Sorry, I own property in Missouri and they are going to have to show me that it isn't ownership dictating this, as the Hunt family has been the only thing consistent for those 30 years. In fact, I think it has pretty much been a trend since the outset.
They are trying to avoid being a Cleveland or Detroit, but in the process avoid being a Pittsburgh or New England.

Carl Peterson gave an interview 2 weeks ago at the combine and basically said he didn't have the patience for a rookie QB. That he ALWAYS wanted veterans to lead his teams because they had "been there, done that".
Clark stays out of all football decisions. He's alerted to them, and he'll ask questions but he has no real input in the overall decision.
Reid loves Alex Smith. That's what this comes down to.
