That doesn't mean that the other team would have drafted him, especially since the other team would have likely drafted at the other end of the draft.

Value and Position! Value and Position! And if you can't comprehend THAT, try THIS:

Needs that can be met through drafting in later rounds, and the Majestic Miracle that IS Free Agency. Yes, you should expect to see a marginal return to this practice under Pioli.

Yes, let's hope lightning strikes twice in the same spot, because the probability of such an occurance is off the charts! :whackit::rolleyes:

We can instantly upgrade our football with improving the defense and adding pieces to the offensive line. I think Thigpen is a good enough QB that we don't have to draft a QB with the 3rd pick. We can take a QB later. Unless a sure-fire, superstar QB is available, and we all know that that isn't the case. There might be a really good one, but is he good enough to take a chance on with the 3rd pick.

If Stafford or Sanchez is there you take them. End of Story. They are as close to sure fire QBs we're gonna get a shot at. Chances are we will not be drafting this high next season. Grab them when you have the opportunity, because chances are we won't get another one.

But again, you're GETTING SOMETHING out of that pick, and not stalling your offense in the meantime.

If give the choice, would you rather have a LT that gets moved to guard, albeit overpaid, and produces?

Or would you rather have a QB, that is costing you financially, and on the field? And limiting his offensive teammates as well?

I'd rather have neither.

I see your point, but IMO if you draft an LT at #3 you are expecting Orlando Pace or Willie Roaf in return. If you Get Trezelle Jenkins instead I think it crushes you finanancially and limits his teammates on the field. The LT affects every position on the offense in some way. The same can be said for almost every position on the field. Maybe not to the degree a QB does, but still a major bust is a major bust. There is no way around the fact that it hurts you badly.

They do it to create competition at the position. The team philosophy is to always be trying to improve the 53-man roster. No position is safe, and everyone is ranked.

I suspect Pioli will institute the same policy for you. Also expect him to target players that are versatile, and can play more than one position.

So your theory is that if Matt Cassel wasn't breathing down Tom Brady's neck threatening to steal his start job, Brady wouldn't have been motivated and would not have thrown 50 TDs 2007.

My theory is the Patriots draft a QB every other year because they were looking to find someone who if need be could take the team to an 11-5 record if Tom Brady was injured during the season. IE strike gold.

There is no way in hell I'd give up a #1 for him, but a 2 in this draft, and a 4 next year and I might do it.

It just depends. I'm willing to put total faith in Pioli to see what he can come up with.

One thing I'm fairly certain about is that Thigpen won't be the starting QB of this team next year.

I doubt NE wants KC's third. I doubt Pioli wants it either, but KC has enough cap room that he can afford it. BB would be more inclined to take KC 2nd round this year and another pick next year, than the third overall.

I feel more comfortable with Pioli than Carl doing anything related to the Chiefs.

I don't want a QB that is just "good enough". I want a Peyton Manning....a Tom Brady *cringe*.....I want a ****ing franchise QB.

I think you are confusing franchise QB and HOF QB.

If your expectations are a Peyton Manning or Tom Brady you will probably be disappointed.

Rivers, Cutler, Big Ben, Baby Manning, possibly Cassel, Warner, possibly Pennington, Brees, Romo, etc are Franchise QBs.
