While John Beck and Rex Grossman are on the last of their 9 lives here and would have been dead if we weren't interested in them, Chase Daniel has spent the past few years solidifying his status as Drew Brees' backup in New Orleans. He did not fail here. We just cut him because the personnel guys wanted to keep Colt Brennan just like they kept Betts and Carwright: competition does not exist in Vinny-land.
We looked at Brecks because they had potential upside, not because they were sure to produce concrete results. Chase Daniel has far more upside than either.
