Look at the situations in Miami, Detroit, Houston, Chicago and etc. Sometimes (imo) teams sign quarterbacks knowing they're not true winners, but because the fans believe in them.
I'll admit it's not always easy to tell when this happens on draft-day, but when they resign them to big contracts without proven a dam thing, it's obvious why they're doing it. Not because he's a good QB, but for the fans. It's business!
We come with facts, such as Cassel's performance, his trade value and the contract he signed.
Yet your idea of "getting real" is some made up scenario where teams trade 2nd round picks and $60 million dollar contracts for QBs they know aren't any good, simply so they can appease their fan base. You don't seriously believe that do you?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
