Il Mostro Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I definitely don't want Geno to be handed anything. I am very much in favor with the veteran QB to come in and compete. The NFL is so crazy though I just fear it will take a 20 million dollar plus contract to land Cassel. I am afraid of a Matt Flynn kind of situation. No way we should pay $20 mil, and I don't think teams will be beating a path to his door as anything other than a back-up. But we need a better hatched plan than we've had in the past 5 years whoever the vet/vets happen to be. And, yeah, keep drafting QB's until we strike gold -- hopefully in what is left of my lifetime.

Il Mostro Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 What's in between brass ring and bust? The playoff conversation? Too obtuse for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QB contracts just scare the hell out of me. Cassel basically opted out of a 4 million dollar contract. So he thinks (knows) he can get a better contract. I am not sure what that will be but I am not going to be shocked if he lands a 3 year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality is a mofo, as all of us with any tread worn off the tires know. I agree, maybe a "soft" 3 year deal with less pain on the back end could happen. We'll see. I am not an advocate of chasing this guy -- I would much rather get Schaub if he is available and realistic. Otherwise, bring the best of what's left into camp and throw them in a pit (don't necessarily take that as a Vick endorsement). The other thing is, a lot of these guys -- like Kolb, Flynn, and the ilk, have already had their backup-cum-starter moments and contracts. They are back down to earth now.

CTM Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I don't even feel the nut-kicks anymore. Court ordered neutering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
