The list goes on and on...
Would that be acceptable?
Would a 9-7 record next year make you happy?

With another team's back up?

**** no.

Why the **** should we bother trying to develop another team's backup from a later round when we have a first round talent RIGHT THERE where we pick?

There's a reason why Kirk Cousins got picked in the 4th round. There's a reason why Matt Cassel got picked in the 7th. There's a reason why Schaub got picked in the 4th. And if they were Tom Bradys or Tony Romos, teams wouldn't both trading the away, would they?

Geno Smith is more talented than anything the current NFL backups could offer us. There is no other acceptable course of action unless Reid is DEAD SURE the guy he trades for is brilliant.
