I was all for bringing in a vet to compete for the backup position when I was stumping for Blake last year. The problem IMO, is now the time has really passed to get a guy and have him digest the entire offense. He will get alot but will never really catch up with the guys who have been with this since May.
The Cardinals at some point MUST determine if McCown is truly the answer for the future. They had a chance last year to get some early wuestions and they chose to not take the flier. I think that wa a mistake but it is also water under the bridge.
If this season goes down the crapper like last year, it is imperative the Cards throw this kid in there (and I mean a full fledged gameplan around him, starting shot) to get a real snapshot of this kid. Practice is great but until he starts a game (or more) they will never get a true feel for what he can do.
The answers they get will shape their drafting and free agent status in the immediate future.
