Mecca is not, as far as I know, Pete Carroll using the ChiefsPlanet message board.
And, yet again, you can't seem to grasp simple things. Call me when 60=100 and then you'll have an ironclad case. When it's a 60/40 split, you've got shit. Which is basically what your argument is.

I don't know how this can be said any more plainly:
Are teams going to spend every draft pick outside of their #1 in a given draft on a quarterback?
No.
Why not?
Because its a gross misallocation of resources.
Well, for the sake of argument, let's give them extra picks in every other round other than 1, and let them use all of them on quarterbacks.
Would they, or would they not have a better chance of finding a QB from all those other picks, than they would from simply spending a first round pick on any of the top QB prospects?
They would not.
Stats bear this out
History bears this out.
And yet, in spite of all of this, you assume that because the odds of getting a SB winning QB are not 100% in round one, that somehow that justifies trying to look outside of round 1 for one.
1=60%
2+3+4+5+6+7=40% (and in many days you take n=round all the way up to 18 and it STILL DIDN'T MATTER).
This is your argument:
I put a gun to your head, if you don't win, I get to kill you. You have AA against 2 other random hands. You are basically saying, that because AA does not have a 100% chance of winning, that it's not the best course of action.
Cool, we get to blow your head off.
And as far as Carroll and Booty vs. Sanchez, I guess that the opinions of Pete Carroll outweigh those of all of his coaches. He was also proven right by the fact that USC was
less successful with
more offensive talent with Booty, and the fact that Booty was a 1st round draft pick, right?
Clearly Booty>Sanchez.
Obviously, Jerry Glanville was right in his assessment that Brett Favre should never start, since he's the head coach, right?
