Its not lost upon me that the NFL's longest consecutive game QB would have backups that got little to no playing time. My point was that they all turned out to have productive careers. If TDs are your yard stick, Brooks had 123, Detmer 34, Brunell 184, Hasselback 201, Bono 62, Pederson 12, Warner 208. Some would consider all of them better backups than Graham Harrell (0), BJ Coleman (0) or Seneca Wallace ((31)Zero with the Packers).
I don't need TT to draft someone that will be trade bait someday, ala Ron Wolf. Kinda liked that about Wolf, but don't think TT needs to copy him in that respect. I like the idea of having a guy like Flynn who has game experience, but likely won't get another real shot at a starter's job. I also like having a third QB who is developmental, like a Tolzien or even another undrafted QB to push Tolzien, and then push Flynn. TT and MM was taking the backup job too lightly, but finally got it right.
when was the last time TT traded anyone away? drafting a guy to turn into trade bait down the road only makes sense if you actually trade the guy before his time on the team is up
Trades just aren't that common. The QB spot is so key and so fragile that if you have the chance to draft a guy you think can be a high quality NFL starter, you draft him, and then pray you don't need him before his contract is up.
Nice shirt Ha Ha
