[QUOTE="Half Empty, post: 704689, member: 10288"] As far as picking their QBs, TT certainly deserves credit for making the selection when he did, regardless. However, Smith and Rodgers were basically a coin flip for pick #1 and #2, and his freefall to TT's 'lap' was a media event during the draft (my point being, he was a highly regarded QB prospect). Also, Favre was starting to make the noises that tarnished his image with many Pack fans, so it's reasonable to expect he was drafted to replace Brett. Brady, on the other hand, was not a top prospect, and certainly wasn't drafted when he was with a thought toward replacing Bledsoe. The Pats certainly are lucky that he turned out to be the QB he is, but it's difficult to say they were lucky he fell to the 6th round. I think WIMM has a couple of points in referring to the timeline. One is that leadership in most organizations earns the right to special consideration based on total results, meaning that the 3-for-4 run early in the Belichick/Brady partnership gave them a very long leash. And, while wins are obviously the measuring stick, I don't think you can dismiss the fact that they were in two more SBs, both being "you're never going to see a play like that" losses to the Giants.
