[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 937645, member: 10086"] Captains point (and others on board) is a bit rhetorical in nature. I like to let the story unfold though, verses making obvious in season proclamations about long term decisions. We all know Love is an ongoing project, regardless of how he ends, it’s rare a QB comes in their first full season and performs at SB leading QB levels (his stated argument) Love was a Junior coming in that needed refinement and that’s why he didn’t get picked top 10. GM moves at QB in the draft are meant for mid-long term value vs. moves made at QB in FA moreso to fill short term/immediate holes. So to me that’s an unfair (or at minimum at least incomplete) to judge a GM making a long term position choice in the short term. Love was never going to replace Rodgers year 1. Things can be both true and rhetorical simultaneously. I guess I’m saying, we all should let the story unfold before we close the book and write a book report. Lastly, one could argue that the same philosophies that a GM uses to hire immediate talent are comparable (and even in conjunction) to that same philosophy at long term talent. One aspect of our GM’s global, personnel philosophy does not preclude the short term moves from the long term. They work in tandem layers like peeling an onion. We’re not done peeling yet. Some fans just can’t lick their way to get to the center of a tootsie pop without an irresistible bite. We’ve got a bunch of wise old Owls in here. :cautious: [/QUOTE]
