[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1000347, member: 10086"] You guys are killing me! :laugh: I will admit at the time I was very surprised at picking a QB. Yet once my initial discouragement waned (I was praying for a WR) I know that I know that Brian and his staff thought through that 1st Round a Thousand different ways. There’s no way he’s spending a Day 1 selection at QB unless they feel there’s a legitimate chance at getting a really good one. That doesn’t guarantee anything, but our staff at least thought Jordan was “a deal” at #26 overall. The Packers very likely had Love pegged in that low #20’s area (or possibly teens) or imo they likely don’t spend 2 selections to draft him. That tells me they know something we don’t and I think our Staff had been following Jordan Love very closely during and after his breakout Sophomore college season. If we recall. There was also a run at WR just before our selection of Love similar to 2022 at WR. We weren’t the only team to rate Mims and Higgins later and not want to reach. Every last team of the 32 passed on both of the next 2 consensus ranked WR’s until later. No GM is going to take a guy he might have at #35 overall etc.. over another player ranked at #20 etc. It takes intestinal fortitude to get that gutsy, I kinda respect that tough call. You’ll never be a great GM until you pull a Ron Wolf and get your QB, no matter how controversial it gets. [/QUOTE]
