Maybe the answer is to put a little more effort into examining the heads on the QBs shoulders, and who will be whispering in their ear day-in/day-out?
I definitely think there is way too much emphasis in these QB threads put on physical tools. Tom Brady does not have dominant physical tools. Neither does Peyton Manning. Neither does Drew Brees. JaMarcus Russell does.

This so reminds me of the scouts vs. moneyballers in baseball. The scouts drool over "tools", whereas the moneyballers are concerned with trivial things like can the guy play baseball and does he know the strike zone?
