Nice post, from someone who who missed your tone on that one.

I think Brock is more likely to give us what we need to win (solid, above average QB play) than anyone in the draft. He's less of a dice roll. This move was made to complete a team that was competitive despite the QB the last two years.

But I also think Brock has a relatively low ceiling, and he costs us 5 times more money. Teams like Seattle and Indy operated with a $15 million+ cap bump by playing a rookie QB. That allows you to screw up a lot and still put together a great roster because you get to spend 10% more than the rest of the league. I would have liked that advantage for our front office since they've been known to screw up plenty.

Good point. Now that the Seahawks have to actually *pay* Russell Wilson, Pete Carroll isn't looking as smart.
