[QUOTE="sschind, post: 872495, member: 10247"] With instant gratification being all the rage nowadays I can certainly understand the disappointment with this pick. I can't say anything bad about that because its pretty much where I come down on it. like pretty much every play called during a game this could turn out to be a genius move...if it works out. Of course a lot has to happen over the next 10 years for that to be the case. It could turn out great but the downside is what could have been in the meantime. Of course that's something we will never know so I am not going to waste any of my time complaining about it. The pick was made and like anything else I have no control over what's done is done. I would have preferred another pick (Queen) but in 10 or 12 years, when we have our 3rd consecutive HOF QB and several more Lombardi Trophies, I'll be right there with everyone else proclaiming that I was behind the pick from the very beginning. I won't play the "he would have been there at..." game because the truth is there is no way of knowing if it is true. There was a lot of love for Love (yeah I went there... sue me) in this draft but everyone knew he he would need a couple years to develop. I could very easily see the Patriots or the Colts moving up ahead of us at #30 to get him. Its exactly the kind of move I would have expected from Bill Belichick so in that respect I give Gute credit for identifying his man and going up to get him. The bottom line is that while these 3 days are a nice diversion the NFL and I dare say even the Packers are not first and foremost on my mind right now. I admit my very first reaction was "he traded up for a QB!!! What a waste" but I'm pretty much over it. Life will go on...I hope. [/QUOTE]
