All worth it. All of it.
for me, 40 years of futility. 1980-2019.

I agree, it was worth it, because we didn't just get a franchise QB, we got the best QB in football. An MVP who seems destined to win multiple MVPs and lead this team to Super Bowl victories.
But, I am only 48, and looking back it was really frustrating because as a kid I had no idea why we drafted Fuller. And even as a kid I thought it was crazy to draft a QB from Penn State. Drafting Blackledge that high to run a pro offense would be the equivalent to Metallica hiring a cellist to replace Clifford Lee Burton because they both played instruments with strings.
