He's also proven his inability to lead men. He can possibly grow into that (I've seen it happen) so that's why I'm intrigued by him - AS a #3 QB.

And we all know that while Taysom is technically the #2 QB on roster, his value is all over the field and therefore subject to the wear and tear a typical backup isn't.

So I'd like to have another arm.

I'd like to have another arm too. Preferably not one that's attached to finger licking good fingers.

I appreciate your views but I just don't see any saving grace for him. Personally, I don't believe he has the smarts to be an NFL QB.

Keep a lazy eye on these names as a possible "back up" to #9 in 2020 ...

Andy Dalton
Jacoby Brissette
Cam Newton
Jameis Winston

I like ‘em all.

He’s actually extremely intelligent when it comes to football. He’s just shown a propensity to make poor decisions off the field and it reflects in his on field play. Like bruh said, it’s a maturity issue.

Dennard back on the market. Slot CB.

I’m not going to pretend that I’ve paid any attention to Dennard over the years, but we need all the DB depth we can get.

Guess more teams are wising up to Jadeveon Clowney's inability to be available against physical opponents; still, it's amazing someone hasn't signed him...

Know the Redskins are lined up for Chase Young and have good edge rushers already, but usually it's someone like them or the Raiders that have made this signing...

I believe that play in college where he "blew up" that QB hurt him as much as helped him. People expect a "blow up" on every rush.
