I have no idea what Beck can or can't do. That said, people writing off a second round pick after only 4 starts for a 1-15 team seems ridiculous. Granted he's not taken charge and forced himself into the lineup anywhere, but he has had a year to learn the system, get comfortable in it, and start developing. Isn't that how you "are supposed to" develop a qb? Maybe he sparks, maybe he falls flat, but I think that for a CB we were gonna cut, we ought to give him a chance.

As for the media writing him off, well DC media mad hatters clearly are gonna find fault with whomever MS put in there. Does anyone think that Gabbert would be getting any love from the DC media if he were here? I don't.

In the end, for 1 qb(gabbert) we got two solid, imo, D players, for a D that definitely needed it. And if we need a qb, next years' crop is supposedly head and shoulders above this years.
