EJ IMO. My guess is Whaley is trying to work a trade for EJ- trying to fetch decent draft pick. He is offering Cassel too IMO, but he won't net much. If no deal is made, EJ is backup and Cassel is cut is my call

I like Tyrod but putting all the eggs in one basket would be very stupid at this point. Trading EJ right now would be insane, he should be the back-up in case Tyrod is not up to the challenge.

I think the second string QB isn't even on the roster. EJ likely traded and can't run an option offense and Cassel can't run the option offense.

Are we running a straight option offense?

I suspect it will be close to what the 49ers did with Kap. He wasn't a great QB, bu with the Roman poption, it was a nice hybrid. I suspect we'll be close to that. TT can hurt you from pocket as he has a good arm, plus can take off if you don't respect it. But at same time give him a short/long option to one side and he'll kill you as he's faster than Kap, plus can make that throw.

FWIW Rex has said multiple times he plans on keeping all 3.

 

So lets assume all 3 remain...TT is clearly the starter now, so I would assume EJ is the #2 given he had a great preseason and the game plan wouldn't have to change drastically like it would with Dr. Boring Cassel

I actually love this situation. EJ has shown promise and appears to be making significant progress in year 3. I think EJ as the 2 will be, again, a great learning experience. It will also provide him with an opportunity to refine his game. Come next year, it is possible that EJ will show to be the guy, but right now I believe Rex made the right call. EJ as the 2 and give Cassel his papers

I don't want either EJ or Cassel going anywhere. EJ showed he still has a future and Cassel is the perfect guy to have on your roster because he's a guy that excels in short passes and takes little risks.

Thank you...My sentiments exactly...

OK- so what if a team offered a #1 pick for EJ? Do you make that deal? So many teams are QB starved. I would not be surprised if someone offered a #1

I think that if Tyrod gets hurt Cassel enters the game. If Tyrod misses a game or more EJ plays those weeks.

Of course you would make that deal but no one is offering that.

You'd be lucky to see a round that can be counted to using one hand. If Ej moves, it's about clearing the cap, not getting a great pick.
