[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 898815, member: 9364"] Yeah, QB is by far the toughest position to get right in the draft. But right now, I think the frustration is that most of us feel Rodgers's career should not end with only one SB, and getting a good successor QB just doesn't feel like it would make that any better, considering that even if Love turned out to be good, the chances of him getting us multiple SB wins are still low. Now, if you were to ask me hypothetically if we were to go back in time to the 2005 draft, and say the Packers were to draft another position and not Rodgers, and that pick ended up in us winning the 2007 nfccg and subsequently the SB for Favre, but the trade off was in every year following that game and Favre's departure up till now we stayed mediocre and uncompetitive, would I have traded that for the Rodgers era and where we are now? Well, it's a tough one because beating that undefeated Patriots team would have for sure sent Favre off in the biggest wave of glory in NFL history. But honestly I think I'd rather history remain unchanged because we got to trade out a QB whose play was often too risky, maverick, and gunslingy and ... well all those crazy multiple interception games he had in the playoffs were a ********* mark on his career, and we got a more measured passer who is great and would have even more accomplishments to his name with better defenses on his team, and potentially better coaches not making certain hair-brained decisions -- aimed at McCarthy and Capers btw, not necessarily LaFleur. But today ... I just don't think I'd trade off Rodgers not winning another SB for even a successful Love career over the next 16-17 years if it meant only one SB win in that span. So hence ... I think the organization should focus more on what will win us a SB now even if the trade off was a significant gap in future success. Besides, while I want Love to be given a chance and hope he does well, the odds aren't on his side, so ... this organization had better be careful about thinking Love is going to bring another 10 plus years of this kind of success.
