Hoyer will be a free agent. Im guessing his time is up in cleveland after getting benched for manziel. Carolina most likely resigns cam. And thats about it for qbs.

And that's why I'm annoyed. At least with EJ, there was a possibility of inprovment. With Orton you know what you have, and it's not that good either

The problem is that any coach willing to stick with Manuel, given his body of work, and given this situation, is simply begging to be fired. The coaches don't believe in him and the players didn't really believe in him. Marrone was very close to losing that locker room if the reports were to be believed. The real fault lies in not addressing the backup quarterback position in the offseason, and waiting until after training camp to do so.

Even RG3 is a short-term answer. The problem with these "read option" quarterbacks is that they aren't incredibly durable. If you want a long term answer for a championship caliber quarterback, he needs to be a pocket passer, and have a line that can at least keep him upright for an average of at least 3 seconds per play.

Philly may cut ties with their qb,if they can resign Sanchez. I would be all for that. .

Draft. 2 o line and a te with their first three picks

Cant see them trading foles. Sanchez hasnt been all that special and they certainly dont want spiller when they have mccoy and sproles.

Not a bad thought. You just have to wonder if philly would buy into it. They already have shady, they may want a bigger back to be his reliever instead of a speed guy like spiller.

That may be so but hes not better than foles. Sanchez is a turnover machine.

No but I have a feeling we won't want him to test free agency.

Pay him top 5 money for 1 year and then see what you can do with him and Dareus after next season

I guess that's the safest option then. Although, it would be best if we could get him a nice contract before the seasons over but as whaley has stated he doesnt like to do that because its distracting to players. Hughes definitely has shown he deserves it. Id like to lock him in buffalo long term.
