I look at it like this. When we were looking for a pass catching TE we changed our philosophy and went after ones who can catch and coach them to block, instead of getting good blockers and teaching them to catch. We've got McCarron who sounds like a good prospect. If we was going to pick up another one I'd hope maybe we'd get the arm and tame it.
If we are developing qb's where's the variety from a skillset standpoint?
There's the flip side of that argument as well. Perhaps we want a QB with a similar skill set to Dalton's in order for the offense to feel comfortable with him in there if he's ever called upon. I understand your point, but that's more focused on throwing the D a curve than it is keep our offense on the same page with a similar QB.
To each his own... unless you belong to a political party...
