I don't see what the Steelers did as any different from what we did. We've had a problem for two seasons now. We brought in Weeden at the last minute when Orton went sideways. That was in March of that year, so we could have drafted somebody if we liked them, I guess. We tried to develop Vaughan, who had the physical tools. We kept him on the roster, which was unusual at the time. We brought in Cassel when Romo went down as insurance, and stashed Moore as a guy they apparently like as a developmental guy. The only thing we didn't do is draft somebody with a high pick, but again, I don't see a lot of guys with ability we passed on in the last two drafts. Manziel? No, thanks. We reportedly liked Savage a couple years back. He was overdrafted. Who else was there?
And, I like Fitz for what he is, too, but don't think he's a much better option that Cassel was, honestly. I liked Hoyer as a backup to Tony, too, but think the opportunity to start there was probably too much to expect him to pass up. Other than that, the recycled QB market is a big steaming bowl of 'meh' or 'yuck.'
