Come on man! This thread is definitely adding value to TSW in a BIG way!

Where is the option for "he was always terrible and now that Ralph's dead we don't have to continue doing favors for Bruce Smith's Godson"

I voted for huge mistake because it's closest to how I feel. Never liked him as a prospect but I don't blame the kid for it. If he was ever going to succeed, the process needed to be much better.

 

Rookie QB, eh? I know, I'll get him:

 

A rookie OC.

Oh, by the way, can you be his QB coach too?

An offensive line more akin to a sieve.

A placeholder veteran QB who might end up on IR because of a stiff breeze.

But what if 789. Why can't that happen. You're EJ bias is really getting in the way of thinking clearly here.

 

 

Well 6 is scared of 7 because 789

My reaction would be..thank god there's no more EJ threads

 

Me too, but there's no chance that would happen.

[bobshaw81]

where is the "happy" option. He is a waste of a roster spot and taking up valuable reps. Get him OUT

[Lurker]

I'll delete this. Try again.

Try even harder...

Is there a point to this?

I don't see any of the QBs getting released because I don't think that it makes much sense. I would rather all 3 QBs that have a chance to start on the roster than a 5th safety for example.

 

To answer the question though if one of them does get released I will have confidence that the football people made the right decision.

 

I think EJ getting released would be as much about team chemistry as resources. He would likely be disgruntled as the 3rd string QB never getting practice snaps. If the coaches believe Simms on the Practice Squad gives the team all it needs as a 3rd QB, and adding a position player who can contribute on special teams is more benefit, it would make sense to let EJ go.

 

Also, it would be the right thing to do for EJ. Wallowing as a 3rd QB means never dressing for games and being in career abyss. It would be better for him to get a clean start elsewhere and have a shot as a backup one injury away from starting. He's been a gentleman here, and deserves that much.

From what I've seen and read, all 3 QBs have been about equal this off-season.

 

So I want to keep EJ because he still may have some upside. Cassel doesn't.

 

But obviously the coaches have far, far more data points than me or anyone else. If they cut him, I gotta trust their judgment.
