Clayton's Drunk

He can throw it a mile and a half.

 

and he is tall.

 

Thanks,

Yeah I thought getting Carr last season was spot on with what we needed but we saw that train wreck. I guess I am on board with the idea of signing a veteran to compete and drafting a kid who might be more of a long term answer. I am not as sold on Moore as maybe some are, but I think that has more to do with my concern that once there is enough film on him he wont be nearly as successful. I realize QB's are a bit of a crap shoot but I guess I romanticize at the idea of landing a franchise guy that we can count on year in and year out and it seems that recently the highly touted QB has faired better than they used too although I am sure there is evidence to the contrary, it just seems the young guys are stepping up quicker with greater success.

 

Because he led The Replacements back to respectability

 

We do have a british kicker on the roster.....

 

What kind of veteran QB are we talking about? Someone on this list?

Josh McCown
Ken Dorsey UFA Cleveland Browns
Quinn Gray UFA Jacksonville Jaguars
Ryan Fitzpatrick RFA Cincinnati Bengals
Drew Henson UFA Minnesota Vikings
Cleo Lemon UFA Miami Dolphins
Jared Lorenzen UFA New York Giants
Jamie Martin UFA New Orleans Saints

 

If I have to pick from that list I'd say
1. Gray
2. McCown
3. Lemon

 

Devils advocate : What if we DID pick up a young QB in the draft (Ryan, Flacco, whoever) ? Suppose we suck this year, Delhomme shows a decline, and Fox gets axed next year ? We'd have given the youngster a year to get used to the NFL behind Delhomme, and now he's ready to start for his new coach to lead us back to the promised land.

 

Replace new coach with Cowher, and now were talking.

 

Jared Lorenzen, we can put him @ fullback there problem solved
