[QUOTE="sschind, post: 905416, member: 10247"] The only reason? How about a little bit of both? Lets say Gute is thinking he needs some insurance just in case Rodgers play declines. He is sitting there with his pick and a QB that he deems a potential above average starter (using your words) drops into range but he doesn't think he will last those next few picks so he trades up to get him. So your idea is that if you are going to add insurance it only makes sense to just take whoever is there for you. That it makes no sense to make sure that insurance is someone you feel will have a chance to succeed. In other words if Gute felt the need to add insurance he should have just waited and took whatever QB fell to him rather than go get a guy he thought would be the best for the job and potentially be the next above average starting QB. As I have said before if Rodgers had had an MVP season in 2019 I would bet anything Gute wouldn't have drafted JL. Since he (Rodgers) didn't and he (Gute) did Its not a far stretch to think that he(Gute) felt getting some insurance was a good idea. It's just a shame that Gute's crystal ball was broken and he didn't foresee Rodgers' epic 2020 comeback after three consecutive years of play that many deemed a decline. [/QUOTE]
