That is kind of the point though. The doctors in Miami over ruled him and basically said no to Brees and his shoulder. Who in Tuscaloosa says no to Nick Saban? Then you now are stuck with an aging Daunte Culpepper and with a salary cap league you just can't go out and recruit the best QB in the country to come in next year, you have to draft one or hope another finds it's way to FA. Talent acquisition and navigating the salary cap are part of why college coaches struggle in the pro's as well, building the team how they want it isn't as easy.
