I hope no one trades for him, That would be funny to have to 10+ million QBs on a roster.
I thought you could remove the franchise tag at any time?elrod said:brewer228 said:I hope no one trades for him, That would be funny to have to 10+ million QBs on a roster.
This right here...doesn't seem to be the wisest front office move to make. If you can't move the guy, you're fucked.

You take a very small sample size and crown the guy a king. What's wrong with these people? Scott Mitchell duped us in relief of Marino too, although we just overpaid him as a free agent...

Kolb looked a little better than Cassell but Kolb is not a long ball guy unless his WR is wide open which DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin helped him out with that. I know there is not a lot of tape with Flynn and I wish we had more to judge. The little bit of I have seen with this kid the past couple of years he has looked pretty good. 480 yards and 6 touchdowns is nothing to scoff at. Also, there were some deep ball passes that were just thrown on a dime. I think he is definitely worth a look for a team. You never know what you are going to get with a rookie QB so why not take a chance on somebody who has looked good in the NFL.

And its not just those 3. When do we see a QB who plays little, go to a new team and becomes good?
