Too low to be the third string QB? I don't think so. IMO he probably feels like he has proven he can be a capable backup and possibly even still start for some QB needy team. So I wouldn't be surprised if this is partly mutual.

This makes sense maybe he feels Griffin is going to get the first 70% of the season to show progress and he thinks Cousins would the next man up so why hang around?

McCoy is probably more expensive then both id imagine...

Seems to me its make or break with the young qbs and building a better line and D so if neither prove worthy we arent that far away . McCoy did some good things - and plenty bad... he gets a little churched up on here since he was the one who got a cple Ws.. but I hardly feel like anyone could keep a straight face and say he is "the guy" and will take us to glory.

He's nowhere close to RGIII's salary, but still more expensive than most teams would pay a third string QB.

Can't remember if I posted this anywhere else, but wouldn't this be a good year to draft a mid-late round QB? We're going to lose either Cousins or Griffin next year. Wouldn't it be the perfect time to draft a guy with no expectation of starting in 2015? No expectation of starting at all. Groom the guy with the intention of being an extremely affordable second string QB. If you get more out of him than that - bonus!

I've been interested in Sean Mannion/Oregon State. 6'6" 230 lbs.

STRENGTHS: sports an NFL-caliber frame, has the arm to make every throw and is a classic drop-back passer with limited mobility. When he feels secure in the pocket and has the time to step into his throws correctly, Mannion's touch on intermediate and vertical passes is as impressive as any quarterback in the country. He lofts the ball with perfect trajectory over the shoulder of his receivers and allows them to go get it, demonstrating pinpoint accuracy to lead his target away from defenders.

Mannion has an easy, natural throwing motion and he's well-versed in coach Mike Riley's pro-style offense, which asks him to take snaps from under center as well as from the gun. While he can drive the ball when needed, it cruises, rather than explodes out of his hand. The result is that Mannion's passes look effort-less but there is some question as to whether he has the top-notch velocity to significantly boost his stock this season.

He's projected 5-6 round. Wonder if SM likes him at all?

I watched Oregon State play Rutgers and the kid was impressive.

I didnt look up the numbers.. just figured vet min was more then Roberts rookie wages.. I know the third stringer in Seattle last year, Pryor, was getting paid more then Wilson... of course his draft position was a lot different then Rg3s...
