J.T. O'Sullivan..

I watched almost every game that O\'Sullivan played in last summer in NFLE. I liked the guy a lot. Smart, athletic, and he has a lot of heart. I\'d like to see him back. I haven\'t seen Kingsbury, but I can\'t imagine the guy is that great. I live in Chicago. The guy played his college ball at Northern Illinois, or someplace like that. I never heard about him. He was undrafted out of college and didn\'t play for two years. Somehow I doubt that he\'s the answer at QB. If the Saints organization is talking him up that makes me doubt it even more.

Northern Illinois, Texas Tech...what\'s the difference?

For the record, Finlen went to Northern Illinois, not Kingsbury.

LOL. Feel free Scotty.

It\'s all that damn Jack Daniels\' fault.

By the way, he\'s calling my name....

JT is going to carry a higher price tag... 3rd string qb -emergency qb if you will and or one of which you take a change on developing. Kingsbury is the guy to groom for Boumans spot at this point and who knows. JT served his purpose and that was trade bait.

I\'d admit we could do worse things than bringing him back... you also have to keep in mind that he is in a great spot for potentially taking over a team such as GB when and if Farve departs with GB. Think about this... If you have a chance to start for an NFL this year or next or traded yet again to a team you will be riding the pine for another 3-4 years. This is a no brainer... he is staying put unless a great offer comes along.

With guys like McMahon and McCown available, I don\'t see any reason to not go for a Mc over an O\'.

Here is O\'Sullivan:

He has yet to take a snap in a NFL regular-season game but led the Saints in preseason passing the last two years. This summer he completed 31 of 60 passes (51.7 percent) for 471 yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions and a rating of 75.1. Against the Packers in the second preseason game at Lambeau Field, he was just 7 of 20 for 132 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. The touchdown came on a short pass and long run by Devery Henderson, who broke a Joey Thomas tackle and sprinted untouched down the sideline for a 70-yard score.

O\'Sullivan is much less proven than either of the McBoys noted above. My preference, if we\'re going to get an RFA is McCown - in fact, I prefer him to McMahon.
