ok. Good enough for me. THanks for posting the video. They have to help him not lock onto his receiver right from the get go, but he believed he has a franchise QB in Trub. He felt he had to move into #2 to get him, and he understands that without a franchise QB, we aren't going anywhere. All points I completely agree with. The only thing left is whether or not he was right in his assessment of Trub.
If he was, then losing those picks (and I HATED to lose them) was a raging bargain. Now we can only sit back and see what happens. This is not going to be an immediate answer. Glennon is playing this year. Maybe even next year. Hell... if he turns out to be a franchise QB, maybe longer than that, (but as I said from the beginning.... his record says he is far from that). So we have one or two years before he plays and maybe another year or two before coming into his own. A long term situation. But then a long term return also. He can play 10+ years if he is a top QB.
Exciting times. We have not had this opportunity for a long time and my respect for Pace has grown. He gets it on the QB, and he did what he needed to get him and now he is sitting him like you need to for a rookie QB to get better. Plus, he looks like he got Glennon for all the right reasons and looks like that was the plan all along. I am ok with GLennon as a stop-gap. Probably the best choice out there. He must have had a mini-seisure when he got Garcia though. I'll believe he is a great QB mentor when I see it.
So far... so good. We need at least one more impact player. We actually need about 4 or 5 but if we get our franchise QB and another impact guy, it was a good draft although we may not see it on the field this year.
