When Chargers general manager A.J. Smith thinks back on of the biggest trades in NFL draft history, he harbors no regrets. Seven years after the Chargers general manager used the No. 1 overall pick in the 2004 NFL Draft on quarterback Eli Manning, who told the team in advance he didn't want to play for them, Smith says he still has no second thoughts about the pick and subsequent trade that landed passer Philip Rivers -- even if Manning won a Super Bowl first. "He (Manning) was a value pick," Smith told the Sporting News. "He was a bar of gold."
