There's now way that a new HC, no matter who it was, passes on a potential franchise QB...especially given the instability at QB during the previous decade. 

It was one of those situations where the circumstances pretty much dictated what was going to happen. You might call it a 'no-brainer'. 

I did think that Marvin did a great job with his 1st free agent class...getting guys like Kelly, Hardy, James, Thornton and Clemons to come here. 

Now that I will give Marv some credit for. He also traded for Deltha, although I believe that's the trade that cost us Steven Jackson. 

He did a good job of rounding out the roster and ditching players who weren't a good fit.
