How about if we decided to take a qb after that season? Aaron Rodgers...superbowl winner
Or how about in 2008 when we didn't have a qb and took two linemen instead of taking Joe Flacco...superbowl MVP
Would we have been better off trading for Trent Green, or "reaching for a qb that wasn't worth a high pick" in Drew Brees?...superbowl winner
I ask because I Think we are about to repeat history AGAIN.
If we had a qb that was 22, that gives you 12 years to build around him...if we had another 5 years with Trent, we could have built up a defense that could have helped win it all...if you get a 29 year old one, lots of things need to fall into place QUICKLY.
