Correct on the hindsight, but we *could* have drafted a QB in 2017 if the team actually felt it needed a better one to win a championship. You said the words yourself "very solid QB", not good enough to compete with the elite teams. But good enough for Mikey as we are 'in the mix' and with a little luck and star alignment....
