It's always seemed to me that with QB, it's a special position. It's not like teams take the view of, "Well, if we don't get Jimbo, Bob will be just as good because he is nearly as talented." There needs to be that special physical and intangible connection between the QB prospect and the team that drafts him.
You are probably right Rich about QB. In retrospect, having Manning, Ben, or Rivers would all have worked out but at the time maybe Ernie did not think that would be the case. Would hate to see draft assets given up and ideally your guy falls to you but if you have to go up and get him then so be it.
