"My son and I had ranked all the quarterbacks and we liked Blaine," Del Rio said. "We liked him, but he was in the Nick Foles range (2012 third-round pick) -- like third or fourth round. He wasn't a first rounder, he wasn't a guy to trade and go up to get him. So that was not part of coaching, that was not part of me. That was my first indication that my time there was running short."
