Hill to test market.....

idk....seems like a lot of QB's looking for #2 work...how many spots are really open?

 

[Mitchrapp]

I don't expect him to get a better offer anywhere.

 

[tsmith7559]

I agree....with t e cap basically the same as 2011.......always have Drew as a cheaper option....oh shit, did I say that

 

[Mitchrapp]

I don't want Drew either. Not too worried about backup QB's -- there are many to choose from.

Henne, Orton, V Young, McNabb?...
you have 3 new starters coming in the draft.....Flynn in FA makes 4
a lot of QB's taken in the last few years of the draft

V.Y. completed 57.9 percent of his passes for 866 yards and an ugly 4:9 TD-to-INT ratio in three fill-in starts.

Benched by three teams in three seasons, McNabb's best bet for finding work would be to embrace a backup/mentoring role. That's not going to happen, though, as McNabb emphasized this week that his top priority is "competing" for a starting job. Borderline delusional, McNabb has struggled with accuracy, mobility, arm strength, mechanics, commitment level, and conditioning over the past couple of years.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I'd take Orton as a cheap number 2.

Free agent Shaun Hill is planning to test the open market.
Re-signing Hill was a priority for the Lions, but the sides remained "far enough apart on a new deal" late Monday that Hill has decided to gauge his value on the open market. A career backup, Hill performed well in the absence of Matthew Stafford in 2010, completing 257-of-416 passes for 2,686 yards, 16 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in parts of 11 games. He could land a deal that pays him like one of the league's upper echelon backups
