Well in that case using a 4th round pick on a late 1st or 2nd round talent, having him win 2 games for us in his rookie season and whatever will happen this year and next, having a guy work hard in the offseason and everyday in practice, and gave the team peace of mind knowing we had a plan B to go if we needed, for a 4th rounders pay, was well worth it.
A backup should never be seen as permanent but rather temporary. It wouldn't be devestating to not be able to trade him, it be nice. Wouldn't we get a compensatory pick anyhow? Is that how it works?
