I know you said no Wannstedt quotes, but I just couldn't resist posting this little gem.


(On if he thinks trading a second-round pick next year to get Green wood was worth it) -- “Well yeah we do and I think anytime you jump out there to get a guy you don’t look at it as a second round pick. It’s a third round pick in our minds because the guys going to be on our football team helping us win games right now. So the rule of thumb anytime when you’re trading something in the future it bumps up a round. And so in our minds, we got something back. Usually everybody that does these deals, and generally you do them in the first round or second round. You know for a first round pick. But we just felt like we wanted to. We needed a linebacker and we weren’t going to get one in the fourth round or even the fifth round of his caliber. And he’s going to be on our team and he’s going to be helping us win. They’re throwing us back a sixth round pick for this year, so it’s really not like giving up a two if you look at it from the standpoint of getting a sixth back this year to get a three this year with giving up the two next year. It kind of off sets itself. So in our minds we gave up a three to get a three. And we feel real good about. Does that make any sene?â€Â

That statement makes no sense at all. Wanny should have hired a speech writer and only answered questions that were preapproved.
