Interesting..or it could just be a bookkeeping necessity

In protest, Lotus has said he will not shave his beard until Bartel gets the respect he deserves

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

I'm pulling for Beck. Hard.

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

how would somebody find out where the skins' are staying in AZ .. i've got a meeting tonight in downtown at the Biltmore and i heard they are staying there ??? I wanna know if I should be on the look out...

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

Does Bartel still have to travel to Arizona? Or will he just decide to stay home?

I know he will still have a chance to get some stuff on tape so he might as well make the trip.

And Colt Brennan fans gnash their teeth even more...

Damn straight.

We know that Bartel is a roster lock. Obviously McNabb is getting cut.

Yeah, great thread title.

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

Obviously Bartel is gone, but would this have any effect on Grossman given that Shanny generally only keeps two quarterbacks?

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

Shanny will probably go 3 QBs. If Donovan gets banged up in the future and Rexy starts to stink up the place, he needs a third option.

Just so everyone knows, Daseal's last name is Beck, and he feels this is the only way he will ever have a jersey with his name on it.

:D

Seriously.

Let's not forget that Rex couldn't stay healthy for most of his early career in Chicago so if McNabb has an extended absence and Rex gets hurt, we need a #3.

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

Beck is 29, damn He just got drafted in '07 lol

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

We need someone to wash the taint left by Jeff George off of the #3 jersey just like we needed someone to wash the taint left by Heath Shuler on the #5 jersey.

Seriously.[/quote]Well my last name's Campbell, so the jersey thing didn't work out too well for me. :Flush:

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

Makes sense this is a guy they brought in.

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

Glad to see they showed some faith in Johnny. IMVHO the difference between his first Preseason Game and the drive against the JETS #1 Defense showed how well he has progressed. Now with them showing him they want him its time for John to step up and play like I feel he can. This upcomming game will be interesting.

Go get'em Johnny!:food-smil

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

From what I understand, and I don't really know the specifics they actually did save some money in the long run by signing him to this extension.

But this probably means that a 6th WR or 4th RB won't make the final roster

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

So what do you guys think about Beck, say, next year. Think he's a viable number two or perhaps a starter in this league one day?

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

[quote=SouperMeister;726778]Well my last name's Campbell, so the jersey thing didn't work out too well for me. :Flush:[/quote]

Khary Campbell was a pretty good special teams player for a few years. :)

[quote=12thMan;726898]So what do you guys think about Beck, say, next year. Think he's a viable number two or perhaps a starter in this league one day?[/quote]Next year he's 30...a number two is pretty much his ceiling.

Though if he wants to do the Todd Collins career path, he's got a pretty good start already.

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

Is Beck old and a rookie, because he did the Mormon mission thing and started his NFL career late? I see he went to BYU?

I guess they actually save money in the short term

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

I think Bartel looks much better than Beck. Beck's release is too much of a sidearm, I think his ceiling is a #3 and that's about it.

I have joked about Bartel, but in all seriousness I agree.

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

Either guy is a 3rd stringer at best. It will pretty hard to be a #2 on this squad, with two SB QBs ahead of you.

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

To be honest I have seen more positives from Bartel in the preseason then Beck, and Bartel is a rookie as well so I would think there my be a bigger upside to Bartel.

Beck has been in the league since 2007 so he is already a journeyman in only a 3 year career. 3 teams 3 years... journeyman

Bartel's not a rookie. He's bounced around the league Cowboys, Brown, Jags, Skins the past three years. Difference is he wasn't a 2nd round pick

Re: Beck to The Future?
 

ahhh. sorry they said that last night on the Broadcast. I watched on the NFL Netwrok last night and they had the local Arizona Broadcast Team annoucing the game.

Those guys were awful, just completely awful. The "color" guy was terrible and did not know what he was talking about 25% of the time.
