People over pay for quarterbacks. All you need is a desprite team that thinks they're a QB away from the playoffs (Miami) and a 3rd round pick for a 3,500 yard passer is an amazing deal. Hasselbeck can bridge the gap for them while Tannahill develops.
With the way Hasselbeck played (healthy) last year... he's worth a 3rd for a team that's a QB away from making a push.
I still don't believe that any team would give up a 3rd for Hasselbeck. Yes he did play well last year but a 3rd is way too steep a price to pay for a guy we have no use for if we get Manning.
My offseason Peyton Manning edition Trade: Matt Hasslebeck to X Team for a 4th Rounder. Hass is a solid 1-2 year fix, while Team X drafts a Rookie this year or next year to develop. Free Agents: Peyton Manning Scott Wells Hutchinson Draft Round 1: Whitney Mericlus, DE, Illinois (DE is our biggest need, I prefer Perry, but I see him drafted by 20) Round 2: Vinny Curry, DE, Marshall Round 3: Mike Martin, DT, Michigan Round 4: Omar Bolden, CB, Arizona St Round 4 (trade w/ Hass): A.J. Jenkins, WR, Illinois Round 4 (compensation): Aaron Henry, S, Wisconsin Round 5: Tank Carder, LB, TCU Round 6: Malik Jackson, DE, Tennessee Round 7: SOME CRAZY NONAME GUY Offense QB: P. Manning | J. Locker HB: C. Johnson | J. Ringer | J. Harper FB: A. Hall WR: K. Britt | N. Washington | D. Williams | L. Hawkins | M. Mariani | AJ Jenkins TE: J. Cook | C. Stevens OT: M. Roos | D.

Round 1: Tauren Poole, RB, Tennessee Round 2: Malik Jackson, DT, Tennessee Round 3: Joe Adams, WR, Arkansas Round 4: Chandler Harnish, QB, Northern Illinois Round 5: Bryce Brown, RB, Kansas State Round 6: Jack Crawford, DE, Penn St. Round 7: Rishaw Johnson, G, California (PA) My predictions are based on a tool I've written that is tracking all the prospects especially with relation to teams and present it in a friendly way. This said I think I might work on the mock generator because there is no way in hell the Titans are going to pick Chandler Harnish. Well I wouldn't have thought so. He is being spoken about enough though... You can see it yourself: fourthandshort.org/t/titans
