They saw what I saw - a QB who made questionable decisions, struggled wtih accuracy over 10 yards, and someone who needs an offense tailor made to suit him.
If you can't read the tea leaves as to what that says about Thigpen, then I don't know what to tell you.

Or they saw they needed to provide competition at the position as they would have to give up just as much if not more by drafting Stafford or Sanchez at pick number 3. There are other options and other things that could have happened with that move. It's not like we didn't have 58 million in cap space and didn't make a huge splash in the 1st day of FA with some big name talent to spend some of that cash right? Think outside of the box now and then and realize there is always more than one way things could have gone behind closed doors that you had no key too.
What you are saying is the more likely scenario and I have said that over and over in this thread but just because it seems to be the cool trend around here to say Thigpen is nothing and treat that opinion as a fact dismissing other opinions on the subject as arrogantly as possible does not make all the message board know it alls right.
Again like I have been saying I don't care who steps up to the plate as long as they hit the grand slam and give our team what it has not had since Len Dawson and that is a true franchise QB of our own that is not just another recycled veteran with only a few years left in him.
