Still take him on draft day without hindsight?
I like Pioli's strategy, pick good players at good value, and eventually you will have a roster stocked with talent, manageable for the future and at a good price.
When you believe the guy is there, you make a move for a franchise QB. In the draft, b/c volume of picks isn't nearly as important when the shelf is stocked, you can afford to make a move without hurting the team. Or in FA b/c you have the money to outbid anyone.
Now your young QB has a HUGE leg up to succeed. A bad start can ruin a young talented QB. If he's the guy, your team now has a 10-15 year window, as opposed to wasting the first 3-5 years of his career trying to build a team around him, or ruining his confidence altogether.
