Trent Dilfer in Red & Gold?

Trent Dilfer would be an extremely affordable option (with
Tony Banks) that would allow the Chiefs to get back into cap shape while developing a young QB. Dilfer's numbers are very good. How would the fans take Dilfer? Below is a statistical comparison between Brad Johnson (likely a $7 million dollar a year player) and Trent Dilfer (likely a 2-3 million a year player) over the past 4 seasons. Both have been to the Pro Bowl once:

Brad Johnson: 28-17(.622)
Trent Dilfer: 37-19(.661)
TD% Johnson: 1,499 att 63 TD's
TD% Dilfer: 1,419 att 69 TD's
TD/INT Ratio: Johnson-63TD's, 48 INTS
TD/INT Ration: Dilfer-69 TD's, 59 INTS
Playoff Record: Johnson 1-2 Dilfer 5-1

If Grbac doesn't resign, I wouldn't be surprised to see Dilfer in Red & Gold. The Chiefs would be in better cap shape, have an affordable winning QB, and build through the draft.
