Grayson seems destined for practice squad - safely...

Other than having the job for the previous two seasons. I haven't seen anything from McCown that makes me think he's got the #2 locked.

I want to see Griffin get the start next week and if he does I bet he'll outshine Luke and win the #2

There is no way Grayson clears waviers. We will carry 3 this year. Griffin would be who I want but I'm sure McCown will get it based on SP's past love affair with him.

But I would vote for Grayson getting the #2 only because of the investment in him, letting McNown walk and trying to push Griffin to the PS and hope for the best.

This would be our best case scenario. Griffin would be our #2 but be palced on the PS and brought up in case of a injury. No way Grayson would clear waivers. He has talent and teams know this. It may take 3 years to pull it out but the talent is there.

I hate that. If Brees went down, an NFL defense won't fear Payton's press conference and how much he loves a player. We haven't had a competent backup since Chase Daniel. BTW, can we get Chase back??

My #2 would probably be McClown. Short term obviously.

Just a guess is that Payton still hasn't found THE qb he wants to invest in yet. Which means to me, McClown is a bandaid that Payton will keep short term to bide time to pull the trigger on the QB that really impresses him.

I think being a former QB, Payton's recipe hasn't been matched yet as far as what he has a vision for.

Just my 2

I think if we cut McCown that he would be a phone call away. don't know that anyone needs a holder that badly
Would love to see RG have a great game and solidify the # 2 spot, but I honestly don't see it.
Question is, who is the best option if Drew gets hurt? That guy might not even be on the roster right now. Campbell, Freeman, whoever the Bills cut? Scary

Yes! Go for the gamble and try to get Griffin past waivers and onto the PS then bring him up to start if Brees injured.

H*ll, McCown is better than anything Buffalo has, return the favor of Byrd and trade him and gets a fifth, sixth round draft pick...

Now that we have Jeff Ireland, we should give this guy as many draft picks we can obtain...

Ryan Griffin will probably have more trade value though; he's a starter, at the least, in this league...

Question is: If Brees goes down, which of the three remaining quarterbacks could get this team as it is now, to the playoffs?

And that is the question you have to factor in with the long term considerations when deciding which three you go to battle with into the season...

McCown or Griffin or Grayson?

All three are up on the trading block IMO.

The number 2 has to be game ready. I pick McCown.
Have to be able to make the progressions...1 - 2 - 3 - throw it away.
Manage the game...don't give it away.
I think McCown would do that best in Payton's schemes.
I think he's seen enough not to have to think too much or over think it.
Push comes to a shove, one of the other could be called back up.
Brees has been reasonably healthy for like 8 years in a row.
Not even a sprained ankle.
I'm scared.
