Peter King: You have to go back to 1997 to find a draft like this one

And that's where we disagree.

For 4 years, Trent Green was great. Granted, I'd love to get 10 years of that, but to just expect it and say anything less is crap is going to make you a miserable sports fan.

I'd trade this year's entire draft for 10 years like the 4 we got from Trent Green. And if you really look at what Green was doing in relation to his peers over that time, you'd be insane not to do the same.

So if that's the case, isn't poo-pooing Trent Green's performance here pretty damn ignorant?

This we can agree on.

I don't think I am poo pooing his performance any more than some are taking it the other way. Time has a way of softening the undesirable things, and the sweet memories get sweeter.

I doubt anyone was much more pissed than I when Gaethers took him out, but to say he was anymore than a good QB is just not in the cards for me.

I want a great QB on this team, and don't want to see them give up more picks in any round for another recycle. Maybe that is just me. I am dug in after 43 years of futility.
