I have to say, that I would view Flynn as an upgrade over Rex, but with so small a sample of his body of work in the pros, I fear that most Skins fans will be in for a rude awakening if/when he would become our QB. I believe that in Flynn we would be getting a 'game manager' in the mold of a Brad Johnson. Above average as far as game managers go, but no really outstanding skills or playmaking that bump him into the elite category. I have no problem with bringing him in, I just would hate to see the fans get all worked up, (like with McNugget), only to be let down when reality comes crashing down once again.

I agree. He didn't really impress me when he was at LSU. Good college player but nothing more. Besides, if you put Flynn behind center here, does he have the ability to make the players around him better? No. We need a potential superstar. Not a potential game manager, or a slight upgrade over Grossman. I say we pass and draft our own guy.
