I am not saying drafting QB is a bad thing. Later round picks are fine to find the diamond in the rough. Flynn is a good example. So is Hasslebeck, Brooks, Brunnel, and then trade them for good value.
Sure, there are some veteran QB's out there, but you have to find one that isn't already on a team and then convince them to come to Green Bay. I mean, how many people, not drafted by Green Bay, would sign with the Packers to sit on the bench on 20 degree weather? Unless Green Bay is willing to pay significantly more money, which TT wouldn't and shouldn't do, most players will probably opt for living and playing in warmer temperatures.

Then again, I think he just enjoys the "youngest team in the league" title
Garcia said that he would only go to a team if he would be the starting QB. He won't accept a back-up role, I guess.
