I really don't get the urge, after some nice plays against and with people that will at best be on practice squad in a few hours, to name Howell #2 since we have an established starter.
Develop the kid as far as you can from the crazy buzz greedy media's spotlights, and either promote him #2 when he's clearly earned it, or once you've traded Heinicke if you feel like you can afford to (in which case leaving Heinicke as your #2 increases his value, but i don't think that's a realistic idea right now).

If Wentz gets injured, I'll trust the coaching staff to know who gives the team a better chance, and if Taylor starts but plays really bad then you could still name Howell the starter with less pressure.

Anyway we're not cutting any of them, so what's the big deal?
