did any of you have this moment...

Canfield was shitting on the field, CST cut to Carmichael chatting with Vitt, it really looked like Petey could have been saying, "I think we've seen enough of this guy. Let's see is McCown has anything."

Sure enough, next series McCown was in.

I'm all for a new developmental project. That or someone that will seriously challenge Daniel for backup. A big deal for Daniel as a backup is that he is at $1mil+ in cost, will be a UFA, and will want to explore a chance to compete to start somewhere.

There's some vets that might be had that would challenge Daniel. At this point in the process I don't think they wanna inject a new guy as #2. McCoy in Cleveland, Young or Thigpen in Buffalo, even LUKE McCown in Chicago, etc. There's plenty others that might hit the street but not PS eligible.

For younger guys it's harder to forecast availability cuz many will be PS stashed (like the Canfield role). Someone like Lindley in AZ or McElroy NYJ, for example, could be upgrades though.

Dude, Chase Daniel is not starting in this league. He is doing what he does best. Hold Drew's towel and make hand signals. He's the new Jason Garrett. He'll probably coach the Saints in 20 years.

Daniel isn't going to sniff a starting spot at this point. He is not a guy who is viewed like Kevin Kolb or Matt Flynn were when they were backing up Vick and Rogers. You are way off the mark on that.

He would have to fill in for Brees for multiple weeks this year and play great for that to happen.
