Dont be surprised if it's Weeden

[NorthwestDallas40]

He's recently fallen to #3 on HOU QB depth chart and may get cut. He knows our system and can step right in, if necessary. And he's played in actual NFL regular season games. I know he played terrible last year, and I don't particularly want him, but there are few options . Waiver or trade seems like only options because no free agent QB will want to come here just for 6-8 weeks and then get cut when Romo returns. Sanchez will get cut, but his salary is too high ($4.5M) to claim off waivers. Aaron Murray is a guy we might like if he's cut, but he's never played in a regular season NFL game. Lastly, Geno Smith. Ugh. Don't be surprised if Weeden gets picked up on a waiver claim...

 

[Denim Chicken]

I'd take Geno over Weeden.

 

[John813]

I rather bail out Quincy Carter to play for us than see Weeden again.

What is your major malfunction, troop!?!

 

[InDakWeTrust]

You don't think he burned bridges for his comments about Dallas coaching? Or was that Cassel?

 

[CATCH17]

J. Garrett needs a mobile QB to win.

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Doubt Weeden wants to come back.

Remember, we're just talking about a 6-7 week rental... And FO has said they prefer someone with experience (read: not Showers)... Connect the dots to who will be available (Geno, Sanchez, Aaron Murray, Weeden)... and realize he's the cheapest QB with starting experience.

 

[aikemirv]

Why bother - we have already proven we can't win with him.

 

[NorthwestDallas40]

Doubt Weeden wants to come back.

He doesn't have a choice if we make a waiver claim for him. Just like PIT with Mettenberger.

 

[Longboysfan]

Can Garrett be a player head coach?

 

[NorthwestDallas40]

Someone has to play backup to Dak

 

[Jenky]

OMG NO

NO< NO>NO< NO

Uh...he can refuse to report. Isn't he a free agent and has to accept a deal also? If a team that claims him has his rights for a period of time, he can just wait it out. Or maybe not unless it's a form of slavery.

[Don Corleone]

I'll take Beasley at QB over Weeden.

I thought we rented Jarrod?

I wouldn't rent a house where the toilets don't flush.

Weeden absolutely stinks.

Chalk up 6 losses if he plays six games for Dallas.

I think if a team puts in a waiver claim, he becomes part of the team on his existing salary. I suppose you're right that he could not report and "wait it out," but there wont be jobs left as other QBs sign/get picked up. And then he'd be out of a job and a salary.
