Hey, Straws. Glad you're back as I've always enjoyed your post.

Thank you, man.

And just as a caveat:

I don't think Mullen is "bad" at assessing talent at the QB position, I think he just looked at Franks as his masterpiece. Sort of like:

"If I can make this guy an NFL QB, I can make almost anyone be an NFL QB."

I think he greatly overestimated Franks, who has all the physical tools but seems to not have the computer. If Franks could read the defense, with that frame and that arm? Whew, no defense would ever be safe.

Again, though, I don't think Mullen will make this mistake again. He's going to have a loaded QB room when Trask leaves.
