None of these players are legit options. They're all stopgaps, so you have to try to get "value." Two second-round picks are not indicative of value; they're indicative of no Vaseline.

So your solution was Flynn or? Flynn wasn't available until April 1st, when the Raiders traded Palmer to Arizona.
So, if the Chiefs had waited until April to acquire a QB, don't you think there would have been a bidding war for Flynn's services? And if the Chiefs lost, who's their guy heading into 2013?
You're hypothesizing. You're not dealing in realistic terms.
