No thanks! Veteran backups, Kitna Orton Weedon Beuerlein Dalton etc... have been awful as the past has proven.

Stick w/Gilbert & save the $. Smith's injury took its toll. Thus, he's no longer a starter.
How was Beuerlein awful?

I dont see why not have you heard anything different? Maybe he waits until someone gets hurt prior to the season or during.
At some point he will make a decision. Think we signed Dalton late in the process when he couldn't get a starters job.

Actually I recall Dalton picked the Cowboys so he could come home to Texas for a year due to the pandemic. Both the Cowboys and Dalton knew he didn't plan to stay here beyond 2020.

MM said in his PC this week, that the team has been in contact with a few veteran QB's, I believe Alex Smith is on top of our wish list. He was taken #1 in the draft by the 49ers when MM was their OC.

Already explained in length why KJ Wright would be a terrific signing by the team. Can play all linebacker positions, knows the scheme/coach and is considered a great leader. He also has the ability to stay on the field in the nickel.

Daquan Jones is what he is, a true run, massive NT. He is the type who can anchor and occupy multiple blockers. He would improve our run defense immediately.

Think with the age of these three, none with break the bank. The longer these players remain available, their prices will start to come down. Sign 2 of the 3 and we are ready to go drafting.

I have Jarran Reed much higher than Daquan Jones. I would push all chips in to get him.

The guy that I wanted was Tyrod Taylor, but he's gone.

I would be fine with:
Alex Smith
Colt McCoy
RG3

But we will probably stand pat with Rush, Gilbert and DiNucci all under contract.
Backups/low end starters are going for 10 million and I believe TYrod got that..


May as well roll with Gilbert

They play different positions, Reed is more of a 3T that is going to be expensive. Went onto a Seattle site today, most of their fans said he was highly inconsistent.
