NFL Practice Squad QB's
Baltimore Ravens - Trace McSorley, Penn State
Buffalo Bills - Jake Fromm, Georgia / Davis Webb, California
Cincinnati - Jake Browning, Washington
Cleveland - Nick Mullens, Southern Mississippi
Dallas - Ben DiNucci, James Madison
Denver - Danny Etling, La State
Detroit - Steven Montez, Colorado
Green Bay - Kurt Benkert, VA
Colts - Brett Hundley
Jax - Kyle Lauletta, Richmond
Vegas - Nathan Peterman
Dolphins - Jacob Dolegala, Central Connecticut State
New England - Garrett Gilbert, Southern Methodist
NY Giants - Brian Lewerke, Mich St.
NY Jets - Josh Johnson, San Diego
Pittsburg - James Morgan, FIU
SF - Nate Sudfeld, Indiana
Seattle - Jake Luton, Or State
TB - Ryan Griffin, Tulane
Tennessee - Kevin Hogan, Standford
WFT - Kyle Shurmur, Vanderbilt

One of these guys HAS to be better than Streveler. None are starters by any means but I would take a flyer on Ben DiNucci off the Cowboys. He has starting experience but was thrown into a crappy situation.
Johnson from Jets.

I see that Mike Daniels, DT for Cincy is on the practice squad. I remember him being pretty decent against the run.

It's relevant since the discussion is about searching for a backup QB. If Kyler is not going to be durable/reliable, we're going to need a really good backup if we want to stay competetive.
Dear Lord. Really? When you have a transcendent do it ALL QB like Murray, there’s always the risk he may have an ankle sprain here and there. That Carolina D is legit no matter who’s behind center. That loss is on both KK & VJ. What the hell is KK thinking when he goes for it on a 4th down in OUR territory, when we’re down 7-0 & our stud QB isn’t playing?? And VJ is a poor DC for not emphasizing a stop the run 1st approach against a team starting the best RB in the NFL? If Carolina had Murray, they’d be undefeated.

We lucked out that the bye is coming at the perfect time for us this year. With the Rams losing to the 49ers, even a loss to the Seahawks wouldn't be catastrophic. Be nice to get a win though.

the Rams are struggling and they have Stafford playing, not searching the league's practice squads looking to find a QB.

OT: @Crimson Warrior Kyler was trying to transfer to Texas after leaving A&M. However, Shane was a big reason they said no.

Wow, I had never heard the Murray wanted to transfer first to UT! And then Buechele ends up at SMU anyway. Man UT has had terrible luck with QBs since Colt McCoy graduated.

Bottom line is that the Cards have to drop Streveler and bring in another backup. Streveler is absolutely horrible and should not be in th NFL.
It's always a mystery to me when a coach just loves him a QB who sucks. It's not just KK, it happens all over the league. Strev must just light it up in practice or something, it's a real head scratcher why he's on the roster.

They're not looking to drop him they're looking to add a backup in case both Kyler and Colt can't play this week. If they can't play Streveler would start.

Mullens success was a product of Shanahan's system

Here's one example of his pre season in Philly

"Mullens completed one of five passes for four yards and two interceptions during Friday's preseason loss to the Steelers.

Managing to pull off a passer rating of zero, Mullens arguably had the worst preseason performance of the week despite only playing a handful of snaps."

Streveler starting is a very depressing thought.

Problem is if you sign someone off of a PS you have to put them on your 53. That's for the rest of the season I do believe. So in doing so your giving up a roster spot for the rest of the season.
You would have to replace strev at this point. He has had a couple chances and has failed miserably. Re add him to the practice squad if they must and elevate him on game weeks . And that’s if your wanting to be able to use him on any specific packages, haven’t seen any of those result in anything good either though.
