Spaceman Spiff Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Glennon wins by an adam's apple. For the record, I'd also be fine with Mavis Dills as our backup, too. I'd have a meltdown about Andy Dalton but aside from the Red Rocket I'm good with most of the "names" that remain out there as potential backups. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He parlayed a few crazy fluke type plays into a potential $20 Mil contract. 1 hour ago, Llevron said: I don't really see the point of TH being on the roster anyway if I'm being honest. I enjoyed his play sometimes, so I'm not a hater at all. But seriously the point in all this is to find a QB with the talent to take us to the next level, right? If its not the young guy we have now, then we are going to have to draft (or make a massive trade for) one anyway. Worst case scenario for us is Howell being trash and losing 15 games this season. But then we are in prime position to draft someone or trade the pick. What ****s that all up is TH winning 5 or 6 games for us again. I don't know why any of you would want to sign up for that possibility again. TH does nothing for us long term. Yall gonna have to get over it. If he was so ****ing awesome He would be in KC as a backup or something as often as Mahomes gets hurt. Like ive said i liked taylor but i understood he was a backup, that could fill in for a few games and get the team wins. He never was or will be a good full time starter.

Maybe we there's someone with a similar "profile" from the pool of candidate draftees. And I suspect this guy would have a decent Wonderlic score. Apologies, this post made me dig up my contribution to the Look-a-like thread when Washington was playing Jacksonville. I was spoofing their punter Logan Cooke.

illone Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Congrats to Heinicke on the new deal in Atl. Well deserved, and I suspect he will get plenty of playing time over there next season as he is better than the starter. Cheers #4. Time to Howell at the moon until we sign someone else to become the most popular backup in NFL history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmsy Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Wanting to spend 10 mil on a vet backup is insane, drop 5 mil on someone and put them in there. If they're playing, we're probably doomed anyways. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapsSkins Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Would y'all be down to trade a 7th rd pick to Houston for Mils to keep him on his rookie contract for another two years? If we wait till he gets cut we'll prob have to pay a few more million. The tradeoff is: we seem to actually draft well in the 7th round. Kam Curl, Chris Paul, Christian Holmes... it's not just a throwaway pick for us. But OTOH, if you guaranteed your 7th round draft choice would turn into a good backup QB on a rookie deal, wouldn't you do it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Taylor could run an offense. He could win -- and lose -- games for you. And the team loved him. If he had to play, he proved -- twice -- that he could at least keep you in the hunt. A backup like that is harder to find than many of you think. And I don't have any faith in Ron's view on QBs. Not sure how anyone could. Should be interesting to see what happens. If I'm Ron, I'm overpaying if need be for a solid backup. And the list is getting short. Anyone who is pushing Teddy Bridgewater clearly hasn't seen him play recently. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could simply claim him off waivers and keep his rookie deal. Unless a team worse than us claims him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the receipts, ya know. There's a lot more folks than just me that knows this. Just keeping it real. 🙂 But your last sentence doesn't do you any favors and could get you a flag for a troll, but it won't given the recent contentiousness that went back and forth between more than a few jousters. And you also have a rule 6 violation in that post, but you're getting a break on that, too. Moving on. 🙂 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalSkins Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 (edited) That’s a lot of money for Dalton. I always liked Bridgewater. Maybe he’s the backup target? Edit. My bad. I read it as 10 mil a year but it’s 10 for 2. Not huge money. Edited March 14, 2023 by SoCalSkins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COWBOY-KILLA- Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Pickings are getting slim..Hope we take care of this soon. A Legit backup is kind of essential. My hopes are Bridgewater/Mayfield/Minshew in that order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
