Every year, there are a few teams whose fans think they really have something when they get a quarterback who really doesn't do that much. I remember the Raiders fans all thought this same thing when they had Andrew Walter a few years ago. We never heard from him again once they drafted Russell. Bears fans say that every year and get sub-par play to go along with it every year as well. What's next, Jets fans who think Kellen Clemens is going to be a stud? This same thing happened with Damon Huard and Brodie Croyle a few years ago - at some point, you've gotta stop taking guys off the scrap heap and get some actual talent. I think Thigpen is an okay backup, but you can't rely on someone who had a mediocre season with one of the worst passer ratings in the league to be a starter for ten years when you have an opportunity to get a legitimate starter. No offense, but that's how I see it.
