With no ability to Tag him why would he extend to stay here to be part of a rebuilding project? What QB could we bring in over the off-season to influence him to stay? McNabb? I can’t see it being an undrafted FA out of BYU unless that guy were to get significant playing time this year to prove he is something special.

While we are at it we better lock up Breaston before he sees the writing on the wall. In the big picture, yesterday’s loss to me is insignificant. Having limited prospects at QB driving away the most talented position on our team could have ramifications for years to come.

Ugh.....I don't know ifI can take a reincarnation of Jason McAddley, Kevin Casper, and Martay Jenkins as the three amigos.

But Stephen Williams is the next Randy Moss?!

LMAO. Yet again, we all see that preseason is meaningless. Yet next year, everyone will overreact and anoint some random player as the next big thing.

man... how badly did we get bent over on that Fitz deal... four years (leaving him in his prime for his next deal) AND no franchise tag. What a horrific contract.

We CAN franchise Fitz. It just is an astronomical # we have to pay him.

This. I forget what it is. Is it maybe the "Exclusive" franchise tag (average of the top 5 salaries at ANY position)?

I think IIRC its at the QB rate? But either way if we didn't get a deal worked out I would still franchise him. But who knows with this team.
