That much is fact.
It's not like he's ancient in age, either.
If they had more leverage and the ability to hold him "hostage" for lack of a better term...I bet they could get a late 1st for him. I mean, he's probably between the 15th and 20th best QB in the NFL and you could probably argue he's between 10 and 15 (though I'd disagree).
It's not what WE want, but if you had to give him a VALUE GRADE...it has to be at least a 2nd round pick. Lets not kid ourselves.

Let's call him 15th. It has been 10 years since the 15th best QB in the league won a Super Bowl. What message does it send to trade for the 15th best QB in the league? It says that you don't give a flip about winning the SB. So for a team that is interested in winning a SB, he is worth no more than a back up. He isn't worth more than a 4th round pick. He is totally worthless as a starter, as are all of the fully matured QBs in the bottom half of the league.
