I may regret that, because one of these years I'm going to have to do it, and we'll never have a high enough pick to get someone who doesn't slip to the bottom of the round. For now, I'll bank on Kurtis Rourke doing a Kurt Warner thing.

You would only have had to give up 1-31 and 2-63 (190+82 * 0.85 = 231.2), but it doesn't fit extremely well with anything else you've done here. That said, it does feel like your best shot at an actual franchise QB coming from the bottom of the draft all the time unless you get ballsy one year and make a pre-draft trade to go way up towards the top of the draft. Next year might be a really good year to do that and stick to this plan of building your roster out to support it.
