What’s Max Hall doing these days? It really is scary to think we have no legit backup

Why I love trading back to get extra picks is Kellen Mond round 4

Why would we pick up a QB who's incapable of throwing to his left? That'd be a horrible decision. Cards should pick up RGIII. He's a good system fit and he won't be asking for much.
You pick up a QB who is young, has starting experience, still has some potential, and has an athletic profile to run your system. RGIII is trash. There is zero upside with paying him money to back anyone up. Ravens tried it and he got injured. At least with Mitch, if he plays ok when given a chance, you have the potential of someone trading for him at some point.

Joshua Dobbs from Pitt?

young, can run the same stuff that K1 does. Been in the NFL, but not sure how much he has played

The NFL has been trying to resuscitate RGIII’s career for a decade to no avail. It’s unfortunate what happened to his knee, but it appears as if he’s never mentally recovered. Look elsewhere. Mitchell and Alex Smith are two that I’d actively pursue at this point

Mitchell is incapable of throwing to his left. There's no upside w him.

I'm starting to think RG3 could be had for really cheap.

Alex and Trubisky will cost too much.

I for one would love to see Alex Smith here on a very friendly back-up QB contract. Streveler more geared as an emergency #3 QB. Like we saw versus the Rams in the season finale, we just need a veteran game manager type QB and we would of won. Plus it would be beneficial to have a true veteran QB on the sidelines talking to Kyler, mentoring him, all throughout the ups and downs during the season.

Tribusky to Bills. The pickings are getting slim, but my preferred guy Alex Smith is still out there.
