So do I. BUT- I also like my QB upright and not paying too much. Really, if VC had made the aquisitions that Shanny did (Donovan and Brown), we probably would not have a 1st or 2nd in 2010. Remember when they traded for a pick in order to have the necessary pick sign a restrictive free agent (I think it was Chad Morton).

While I thought VC actually did okay in ID'ing talent - flame away, but it's my opinion and discussed ad nauseum in older threads - he almost always overvalued it. Thus, even the one decent skill he had was compromised.

Getting a pro-bowl quality Tackle (left or right) for a 3rd or 4th round pick is good solid pick-up. Remember, we were all thinking this would take a 2nd rounder to go through. Honestly, and IMO, if we can get a 3rd for AH at this point, it is just a huge win for us.

I hear what you're saying. You'll not get any lip from me about getting lineman. McNabb can't do squat doing the Brunnell / Campbell shuffle.
