He hasn't played in the NFL and as far as I can tell he's had a pretty easy time of it on a team that is very talented with all day to find receivers. I don't doubt his arm or his athleticism, but he's no sure thing. Nether is Cassel but both men that were with the Patriots last year wanted him, I'll go with them.

We are building a team. We are not like the Bears that are adding a QB to hopefully put us over the top. What would be wrong with having both Sanchez and Cassel for a year, and building this thing right for a change? 40 years between Super Bowls is a pretty good indicator the other ways we have been trying it have not exactly been the right way.

And the best QB we have probably had outside of Montana the past 40 years, we sent to Oakland of all places.

Too many needs to spend a first rounder on a QB

Your one of the "solid double" with the #3 pick crowd huh? I want a HR from my #3 pick.

No, I am the fill in a need before a want type. It is very important to distingush between needs and wants.

As of April 2nd 2009, a franchise QB may still be a need. Better get it right now, cause once we hit 8-8 we may not have another chance to get one... short of doing it the Bears way.

The Bears are more than a QB away. Sanchez and Cassel together wouldn't work unless we planed on letting one or the other go in a few years. And why waste, and yes it would be a waste of a pick in the first round when, as you said, we are more than one player, and position away. That fist pick needs to be on the D or O-line.

They are a lot closer than you might think. Solid defense. Decent O-line. Great RB. Dependable PK'er. Add another top WR to the bunch, and they are a serious contender.

Another top notch WR? Who's the one they have.

TE. My bad. Hester can stretch the field. If the can get somebody in round 2, that passing attack could be pretty good. Especially with Forte out of the backfield.

I'm sorry, Chicago has one of the weakest receiving corps in the league.
