Do the Saints Need Another QB?
 

It has been discussed before but with coach Paytons recent words of disapproval regarding the back-up QB's, http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/9582002, I wonder if the Saints need to get another QB before the pre-season? Martin MAY be good, if not sufficient, but then what?

Other positions on the team should be addressed before 2nd or 3rd string QB like 1st string Right Tackle and 1st string Cornerback I know. But there still are Quarterbacks available out there. Why not bring Kerry Collins back?

Silly idea or viable option?

kerry gets in trouble in new orleans! Likes to tip the bottle......McPherrson any good or not? I don't know, because i live in ohio!

RE: Do the Saints Need Another QB?
 

Please, not Kerry Collins..
We're fine with Martin as our backup, let's leave well enough alone..

Payton learned from the master...Parcells. He is going to motivate one of these guys to come forward, if not, he will look to the wire for another that fits his MOLD. IMHO

You woudln't take a chance on a former Super Bowl starter as a backup?

RE: Re: RE: Do the Saints Need Another QB?
 

I would imagine any QB we brought in would struggle. especially with a new system, new coaches on both sides, new players everywhere.

I'd be more shocked to hear that Martin and A-mac weren't struggling.

I'd take Vinny Testaverde over Bouman.

Me thinks the question is a legitmate one. If Brees goes down, we'll probably wish we had another experienced QB on the roster, as a back-up.

I dunno.

not any more than i would offering to buy b&b drinks for the night....... :D
(i'd go broke)
you always need a good backup qb...the trouble is, how many teams have one probowl qb much less two...........payton is doing the right thing bringing an experienced qb in, in case brees goes down............you really can't ask for more unless another jake falls into our lap and this time we pay him the extra million or two to keep him................smitty

Cowboys | Team releases Mroz
Mon, 7 Aug 2006 10:07:45 -0700

Jaime Aron, of the Associated Press, reports the Dallas Cowboys have released QB Jeff Mroz

Jeff Mroz Grade: 3.13
Position: QB
Class: Sr
School: Yale
Conference: Ivy League
Ht., Wt.: 6-4, 225
40 Time: 4.94
Grading System


BIO: All-Conference selection as a senior after passing numbers of 59.3%/2484/22/14. Played primarily with the scout team before last year.

POSITIVES: Large pocket passer with an NFL arm. Patient, zips the ball into targets or gets rid of passes with a flick of the wrist. Sees the field, finds the open wideout and puts touch on throws. Puts deep passes in front of receivers and lets them run to the ball.

NEGATIVES: Has an elongated motion which slows the release of the ball. Must improve his pass placement and downfield accuracy. Tends to direct passes. Immobile and cannot escape the rush.

ANALYSIS: An intelligent quarterback with the ability to power the ball into receivers, Mroz offers a good degree of upside potential and is a solid developmental prospect

At least take a look at him
