It's probably the biggest factor though, Maulbert. I imagine PC always wanted a tall QB but is happy nonetheless with the opportunity afforded to our franchise by RW not making it far up many draft boards due to his height. Regardless, there seems to be something larger at work here.
The trend I notice when it comes to fans like us is we attempt to both understand and simplify what it is our team is doing both to appear as a proper fan and to use what we learn to stand out in wherever it is we discuss sports. As a result of doing this during the reign of such a capable FO and coaching staff, we become privy to some increasingly enhanced ways of looking at the game as information circulates attempting to explain in greater detail what we want to better understand, like with what's happened with DVOA, SPARQ ratings, toxic differential, and so much else.
In the first half of the 2012 season, DVOA was measuring us as one of the better teams despite our W/L record suggesting something less favorable. Now DVOA is becoming a staple for simple and unbiased differentiating of pretenders and contenders from one another. When attempting to understand why a player like Sweezy can be scooped up late in a draft and find success at a position he hasn't played since high school, we become aware of the his awesome SPARQ rating and the potential that yields with successful coaching. Now SPARQ ratings are becoming a staple for simple and unbiased pinpointing of why we chose player A over player B (particularly in the later rounds where information is so much more scarce).
So if what we're after is a sort of rule of thumb to help us be (or at least seem) more knowledgeable, what should we take away from what PC and JS did with Josh Wilson and what Kelly has done with Boykins (at least for those who aren't convinced he's insane for trading for Bradford)? For me, it's if we have a player who currently ranges from mediocre to somewhat decent in the final year of his contract and he isn't in our team's future plans for whatever reason and another team is willing to give a 5th rounder for him, we should probably take it.
