If Love turns out to be the Packers 3rd HOF QB in a row, the payoffs could be ten fold of what a Patrick Queen or a Tee Higgens could have been for the Packers.  This was a calculated risk by Gute that the long term payoff of Love was worth the short term loss of drafting another player (s) instead.</blockquote>
