    yeah,
    as a QB

    its not like he was a bad QB in college. dude was nice.
    and the very few times he did get snaps under center in the NFL he did a pretty good job.

    He was better as the hybrid role that he was in. He wasnt good enough to be a starting qb so they played him at the wr/qb role that he did.

    cuz' he was similar to what Denard Robinson currently is , just taller ...wasn't really legit in the pocket , but his Athleticism allowed him to do work from the QB position in College....


    they made the right move with him, like you said he wasn't garbage as a QB but as far as him trying to be a NFL qb he wasn't gonna cut it , at best he would have been 3rd string to practice squad material or even Cut and never really had a career

    he's made the right choice agree'n to what he does now.

    He was a better college qb than Sanchez, but once they spend a season not being a qb its too late.
    He did have an average arm tho.

    and thats what made me think....

    like,
    is sitting out a year really that much of a detractor???

    playing WR/KR for a year or two then goin back to QB, does that jus make a player's brain jus forget how to backpeddle and throw a spiral???

    i dont see why you cant go back to being a qb, especially when it was in your football pedigree to be a QB
