I would rather get draft picks and have something to help us in 2010 and beyond than hold on to campbell another year.

Trading Campbell without a better solution at QB in-house would set the franchise back 3-4 years. Not only would it hurt us at QB it would hurt the development of Thomas and Kelly. Not so sure why some folks are so down on Campbell. He increased his QB rating by over 7 points from last year with a far inferior OL, he only threw 6 picks and saved many plays from being disasters.
