Backup QB?

  • Why not take a flier on cardale Jones? He’s from Cleveland. It’s not like there’s any much better options at backup quarterback anyhow. He can compete with drew stanton for that ever important job. Somewhat fast strong and athletic. He has a cannon for an arm and long thick base to avoid injury. He’s just entering his prime and has nfl experience behind him now but hasn’t gotten much opportunity to compete yet. The chargers probably don’t view him as Phillip rivers successor. Let’s get fat face in orange and brown

  • If he has decent hands I'd convert him to TE.

    👍

  • Is he available as a FA? I wouldnt be adverse to this idea so long as we dont have to give nothing for him

  • You are assuming that he will ever have a "prime"....

    Nevertheless...I would not absolutely rule out the possibility..   But chances are slim to none the Browns will do it, and Slim just left the room.

  • I like Cardale but the bottom line is this. If the GM wants him, I’m all in. If not......oh well.  Dorsey Knows Best

    Hilarious ???, you would blow a 2 nd round pick on a back up QB ?????????????? there are a lot more pressing needs   CB   LB  S   

  • Stanton is the back-up.  He has a winning record when he has started games.  

    We will draft a QB at some point in the draft, though if we do so in the 2nd round, I might hang myself from my deck.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

  • Dammit you and your urgency for another QB to protect from Baker injury is gonna jinx us all. Stanton is the backup

  • Johnny Manziel is available now that the AAF has folded. Sorry couldn’t do pink on my phone

  • I'd take Toledo's former QB Woodside or Gilbert who led the AAF in QB stats..Good chance they'd both make it to PS. And would think, they all become FA's to any* NFL team..

  • If Baker gets hurt early and is out for the year than I don’t despise bringing in a Colin kaepernicky for a few game try out sample. Probably would trade for someone though. The only other options would be a mid to late round rookie quarterback. There’s no free agent quarterbacks left besides osweiler kaepernickwand mark sanchez.

    He's still a FA, AFAIK.  If he was such a hot backup prospect he would already have been signed- for vet minimum somewhere. The Dolphins have Fitzpatrick- and a lot of nothing behind him, if they don't want him in as competition, no team will after Colin sat out a couple years. 

    Regarding Cardale Jones, the Chargers resigned him on a one year contract for vet minimum. I suppose if Dorsey wanted him, he could be had for a 2020 7th round pick.  😁 And this coming from a guy who thought "Fail for Cardale" was a good idea. Well, turns out my idea there was dead wrong. 

  • There isn't anybody out there right now that I'd take over Stanton. As far as veteran QBs, I think we are done until final cuts, when we see what is out there versus Stanton. But I do think we will bring in two young arms, one perhaps in the late draft and one off the street.

      Pretty interesting idea - later round pick - that could actually happen maybe.

    Been saying Stanton for a while. And we will absolutely add a late pick or UDFA who can be parked on a PS.

    However, if we want to spend a roster spot on a young vet who is capable of going .500 over a four-game substitute stint...

    ... don't laugh...

    ... the best option I see out there is...

    ... I'm being serious...
