Ryan Leaf just resigned as West Texas AM's QB Coach. Maybe he will be available :eek:

My vote goes to Losman. Starter experience and mobile.

I doubt the Bills will resign him when they Edwards...

I also wouldn't mind Rex Grossman. He's awful as a starter, but I think I can live w/ him as a backup.

They are both young too.

He got popped for drugs. Maybe he wants to give the NFL another shot?

lol....I'm thinking the draft is probabaly the best answer

Losman, he just doesnt seem like a good backup in terms of personality.

Garcia would be the best one, but may want to be a starter or demand high money.

Not on that list is John Kitna, who I think would be perfect here. He had some very good games on a bad team. He would certainly be capapble of being our back up and there were rumors that we wanted him before the trade deadline.

But, what we really need is a true, 350 lb Nosetackle. Someone who can fill up the middle and stop teams from running the ball the length of the field on key drives.

We had one, and we got a 6th round pick for him :(

Anybody have a listing of all the FA QB's this coming year?

Does it really matter? Watch out for Testeverde, Bledsoe, and even resigning Brad Johnson.....any other QB's over the age of 85 that can throw a check down pass?

With the likes of TO & RW, it shouldn't matter who the QB is, right?

:confused: on QB's

Losman would be a great fit for the Cowboys, he no doubt has the freaking cannon for the job.

Same here.

But after watching Cassel play, I wouldn't mind bringing him in if NE lets him go, they drafted O'Connell to be Brady's backup. He's not terrific but considering he's been coached by one of the best, behind one of the best, on one of the best teams ever, I'd say he's got some potential. He's playing pretty well for a guy that's barely played since highschool.

I would go with a young develomental type and have BB and another vet battle for the 2nd spot. This of course with BJ being retired.

I think that Garcia, Kitna, or possibly Bollinger could fit the mold well. We need someone similar to Romo in style. You don't replace a Corvette with an F-150. But a Mustang could hold it's own.

I agree with the poster that commented about getting a real Nose Tackle. After the season, regardless of how it turns out, Tank is gone (FA), Spears needs to go, Ratliff needs to take Spears spot, and we need to either draft, sign, or trade for a big, 350 lb run stopping lug who can take up two blockers, better allowing our LBers to get clean shots.
