[QUOTE="Pkrjones, post: 1000469, member: 9982"] Read this on a Falcon's site regarding the drafting of Favre and a comment jumped out (bolded)... "To some extent, Glanville’s frustration was warranted, because Favre was immature and relied on his natural talent when he should’ve been working his butt off to earn his spot. [B]With Pro Bowl quarterback Chris Miller firmly entrenched as the starter,[/B] Favre should’ve kept his head down, put in the work, and waited for his opportunity. Instead, he drank to excess, pouted, and made sure his time as a Falcon was short-lived." [URL]https://www.thefalcoholic.com/2020/7/14/21322809/pivotal-moments-in-falcons-history-the-brett-favre-debacle[/URL] Wolf traded the 1992 #17 pick for Favre (who Atlanta spent 1991 #33 pick on). Favre was the 3rd QB taken in 1991, behind Dan McGwire (the St. Louis Cardinal's Mark McGwire's little brother) and Dan Marinovich (huge drinker/druggy since HS). Favre was either a #17 or #33 pick, however you choose to look at it. AR was #24. Over the last 30+ years GB is 2 for 2 in QB's drafted outside of the top-10. 3 for 3 over 40+ years sure would be an amazing run, but I'm looking forward to it. ;) Edit: OR, if including Flynn, Brooks, Hasselbeck & Brunell as NFL starters, as well as Hundley, Nall, Detmer, Wacholtz, Martin, etc. then GB QB's outside of top-10 we're still 6 for 15.
