Oh wait, there's more.
Andy Reid himself already had Donovan McNabb (the second overall pick) and not only spent a high second (that was a first before trading down) round pick on Kolb to be a backup/eventual successor, but also went out and signed Mike Vick.
Then, once he moved Kolb for a profit and got a second for McNabb...he gave Mike Vick a 109 million dollar deal and went right out and drafted ANOTHER QUARTERBACK in the third round.
....
Then we have Dorsey..a guy that had Favre and scouted and recommended Rodgers...a quarterback that had the tools, but because of scheme in college, had a long learning curve to get to start in the NFL.
Sound familiar?
Shit, thinking about it, one of the reasons Dorsey gave as a point against the quarterback class was "scheme flaws" he could very well have been talking about Geno with that one, meaning that his might have an equally long learning curve to Aaron Rodgers.
I fully understand that I am grasping at any shred of hope here, but everything I've brought up is plausible.
