I can appreciate that sentiment (and no, I don't think we should be pursuing Kirk), but disagree in terms of organizational approach.
I want my personnel brain trust to be up to speed on every QB out there (other positions too of course but particularly QB) who might represent an upgrade on what I have, or possibly replace what I do have if he goes down to injury, has an expiring contract, etc.
I want to know if/when such a player might be inclined to jump their present ship and come here, for any reason--hit on the head, family wants to move here, always wanted to wear maroon and black, whatever.
I want to know what the dollar and trade value is for every such QB out there, to help judge where all other QB's I might be interested in fall on the spectrum at a given time.
The best organizations keep up-to-date records of every player, coach, personnel guy, etc. out there, because they know every other competing organization is doing so. When circumstances dictate you have to move fast and decisively, the more relevant data you have on hand the better chance you have of making the most informed decision available.
I have wants.
