We just signed Scott Burley, Maryland tackle. Not real excited about this

So with that QB signing does that mean JC will be seeking a trade now? Any word on that?

because of an UDFA? not a chance lol

Zorn stated we'd have 4 bodies in at QB before the season, I mean, we're not going to keep Collins forever, maybe not Colt either

Rumor has it now that B-Bitch spoke with JC over the weekend. According to B-Bitch JC never said he wanted to be traded if we picked up Sanchez. According to B-Bitch JC is just as confused as to who or where that rumor started but supposedly he's claiming to never have demanded a trade.

Although I wonder how much of it is JC was pissed and spoke to people in confidence probubly pissed off at what the team was trying to do and it got leaked. Now he can say he never spoke to the media or said that statement.

I don't know. but as long as we are all a big happy family then I'm good. Over the weekend I had lost a lot of respect for JC thinking he could have taken the high road and looked like a saint. If he truly did not say that then he's back to being a saint and hope he does well.

Yeah, I just now caught the CSN interview with Zorn from draft weekend. Zorn said that Campbell has to understand the Cutler and Sanchez situations and that he believes that he does, that some of that is for Campbell and they're moving forward with him the starter. Said they don't know whether Campbell will be the franchise qb or not, but it's up to them to see and that's what they want and they know that it's what Campbell wants as well. Said he thought that the reason Campbell never freaked out or got pissed off was that Zorn was constantly communicating with him and that Campbell didn't necessarily think that we had given up on him.

Burley is a solid pick I think. Daniel seems like a waste.

What's wrong with Daniel as camp competition? It seems to me that in the worst case he's an early cut. In the best case the elderly Collins can take a stroll and we become younger at qb.

I agree. Couldn't hurt to sign the kid and give him a looksy. He was pretty much a stud at Mizzou. I am going to go out on a limb here and say I would think Daniels would have more of a shot at making it in the NFL than Sanchez. Daniels was a big part in making Mizzou competitive, any shmuck with a good arm could take snaps at USC and look damn good. USC is always stacked to the gills with talent as they have a virtual lock on the best of the best in HS blue chips in CA and in the West in general. Mizzou would have totally sucked without Daniels.

Daniels;

Analysis
Positives: Gutty, competitive field general. A virtual coach on the field. Reads defenses well and checks down effectively. Good accuracy to all levels. Shows enough zip in the short to intermediate throws when given a deep pocket. Good touch to place the ball between the linebackers and safeties down the seams. More elusive than often given credit for. Can buy time in and out of the pocket and shows good accuracy on the move.


Negatives: May be too short for the NFL. Scouts believe his success in this system is greatly tied to throwing out of the shotgun -- and thereby the open passing lanes and middle underneath passes of the scheme. Seemed to provide further evidence of this theory with his struggles at the East-West Shrine game. Questionable arm strength. Has the zip to complete the short and intermediate passes, but has to wind-up for longer throws and due to his lack of height and release point, longer passes tend to sail.

Camp Fodder. Perhaps I'm wrong and they can Collins to get younger, but I doubt it.

Edit: Although my mags compare him to Jeff Garcia.

Was that Daniels or Brennan's analysis?

Signing Chase Daniels as an undrafted rookie is a good selection. First of all by signing an undrafted quarterback, it doesn't inflame the poor relationship between the Redskins and Jason Campbell. Secondly, Daniels was a standout at Mizzou. I live in Missouri and watch Mizzou every week, Daniels is one of the most accurate and smart quarterbacks to come along. What he lacks in size, he more than makes up with tuffness and execution. He is short, just like Jeff Garcia, but he is built sturdy like a running back and can run if necessary. I would like to see Colt Brennan win the backup quarterback job and allow Collins to be released.

Re: Undrafted Rookies Signed

Would like to see us keep Daniels but dont see that happening with Collins and Colt already here. He could stay on the practice squad but will there be enough room for him? I guess we still have a few months to worry about this though.
