i'm all about thresholds....does a guy pass 'some' level of talent at which you could hypothetically build a championship team around him?
for some, it's 'easy': Brady, Manning, Rothleswhatever, Rodgers, presumably Luck
for some it requires more work: Eli, Brees
for some it requires a lot, but they can get there: Flacco, Ryan (broke the seal)
then there is Bradford, Stafford...major ?'s but still with the realm of imagination
but I'd draft ANY of them (in retrospect, obviously)...i'm not concerned with how much work it will take, only that is possible (and not in a Dilfer way)
if you sit around waiting for Luck, you'll be sitting around forever (Chiefs!)...that attitude drives me crazy...you can't win (or even get lucky) if you don't try
and so I would without hesitation draft wilson/smith/barkley...
