The problem with Wentz on your PS is he is a difficult teammate. Some of the stories about him marching around the locker room in Philly telling teammates they were with team Wentz or team Foles are frightening. 

Safe to say he’s been humbled since then wouldnt you say?

I would pay good money to see the ensuing hilarity if he pulled that "Team Josh or Team Carson" in the Bills locker room

Who’s it gonna be guys? The 250 million dollar man or then PS QB?

Have to assume practice squad status would temper Wentz's personality issues. Can't imagine there's a better option for an emergency QB.

frankly, I think your practice squad guy is less someone you expect to win a game this year and more someone that you can throw to the wolves as scout team qb that impersonates upcoming qbs styles etc… 

 

if we are on the third qb, whether that guy is 65th or 72nd best in the league will matter little but he can actually help the starters get ready for games

Still holding out hope it’s Duggan time but I have a feeling it may be a vet 

I thought Duggan would have been a good pick in the 7th when he was still on the board and we were up. Would be interesting to bring him in now but I bet they are looking for an experienced vet that can have a leadership role in practice similar to Barkley.

I think they need to sign a guy with excellent mobility. Josh hides a lot of O-line sins. 

Steaming’ Willie Beamer is available as an UFA

I don’t think anyone would expect him put himself up against Josh in a head to head. 
 

he sure could easily say “can’t believe he missed you stef” or “I’m team Elam” if he’s that incredibly out of touch with managing social settings though

I say bring in Wentz. He’s certainly not great by any stretch but you aren’t going to get a guy that gives you a better shot at maybe being decent for a stretch. Nobody will have more upside and nobody will have more ability. Maybe this system unlocks his original self a little and we can have a guy behind Josh that could salvage a season incase of injury 

Definitely not a “process” guy.  Doesn’t take coaching advice and teammates don’t like him.

Fromm is coming back !!!

I took a look at the list of players who were released yesterday and saw him on there and thought "oh no". It honestly wouldn't shock me. I'm not condoning it, but I wouldn't be surprised.

 

Edit: Washington signed him to their Practice Squad *phew*

Must be the memory of Wentz having all pro games vs Bills.

[CNYfan]

I am firmly against Wentz.  100%

 

I favor Coral, but will wait and see.

I think the result would be Carson’s head in the toilet for a Royal Flush.

QB2 man's the scout team and impersonates QBs majority

 

QB3 gets a few of QB2 reps

I dislike Wentz. He’s cocky and arrogant. His attitude doesn’t match his performance. He has an extremely punchable face…

 

snd yet he’s still better than Kyle Allen. Sign me up 😛

He did play well against us. I remember thinking he was on the verge of being elite.

Wonder if his early career injuries were because some of his ol were team other rostered qb.  Team chemistry is important I'd not sign any players that promote dissent when things don't go their way.

I agree. They wouldn’t sign him if he was a distraction, or at least I hope Beane and McD know that. I sound redundant but Kyle Allen is not a good NFL QB. We need a reliable option…

 

I thought Trubisky was the best back up. Keenum could play. KA looks inept.

But Corral has done nothing. Is he a legitimate #2?

What they were saying here in Indy is that he refuses to be coached

The legit #2 is already on the roster…like it or not.

Yeah.  If they think he can play, sign him.  Not worried about him tearing apart the locker room, especially if he's making the minimum.

Looks like he just got lost in the shuffle.  Was hurt last year so couldn't show anything, is too young and inexperienced to be any good to Young as a backup.  I'm all for it.
