Look, if Pioli thinks either of these guys is Manning, Brady, Brees, or a few other guys, then of course take him. I don't think ANYONE on this board would argue otherwise, at least I hope not. But if that guys is Jake Delhomme, Matt Hasselbeck, Marc Bulger, etc, who are all average to above average NFL QBs, I would rather roll with Thigpen and signing a vet to compete. Honestly in that scenario, I would recycle vets like Trent Green, Warner, etc.
But, if any QB in any year grades out to be a possible top 5 NFL QB, you do whatever you have to to get him.

We're in agreement.
My stance, though, is that it's far past time for this organization to take the risk.
Stafford and Sanchez might end up being only serviceable, and this would suck for a #3 overall pick. But, and here's the beauty, they might wildly exceed even high expectations.
You have to take that chance.
