For those of you who think that Thigpen is a legitimate NFL starter, answer this:

What do you think he would bring via a trade?

Matt Cassel, for example, is 2 years older than Thigpen. The Patriots wouldn't even think of letting him go for less than a mid to high first round pick.

If Thigpen is really a legitimate NFL starter, he should be worth at least that much. What would the reaction be from GMs around the league if we shopped him for a high first round pick?

What is the highest pick you think any team would be willing to give

Well, if they for some reason do not get a QB at pick 3 what other option do they have??? Croyle? Another vet reject? I would prefer to get Stafford in the draft and would love to have Sanchez as well, but if they aren't able get one of the 2 it seems Thigpen is the way to go next year.

I'm assuming that Stafford will be drafted by the Lions. But who knows, maybe they'll draft another wide receiver.

Oh wait, Matt Millen is gone...

Yeah, new regime so it is hard to pick on them too much. Of course they do want Gun, so who knows maybe he'll take Krumrie with him and they'll draft some D-lineman who is amazing at the hand fight slap drill.

Pioli seems like the type of guy that could care less that Thigpen doesn't have the credentials (high draft pick). And I think he is going to be more concerned with Thigpen's intangibles versus his height.

I don't know what Pioli is going to do, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if Thigpen is our starter next year.

I remember someone on here mentioning that the only reason that the pats took Brady over Ken Dorsey was that Brady was like 2-3 inches taller, otherwise they felt like it was a wash. That said, I think Pioli will have more than enough tape to analyze to make his decision on Thigpen.

Dorsey was still in college when Brady was picked.
