    When was the last time that we didn't pick up someone off the couch when that happened?

    Man, if we can even get a 7th rounder for Weeden, Im all over it. I dont want him making the roster anyways, so it would just be a bonus pick.

    Brock
    Savage
    Braxton as emergency

    And TJ Yates is always a phone call away.

    He looks good. He shouldn't be trying to tackle people especially in a preseason game.

    Biggest mistake in recent franchise history was IRing Savage last year. Needed to see what they had in him before putting their eggs in Brock's basket.

    Or they could've just drafted Derrick Carr in the second round.

    drafting one of those 2 which a lot of us wanted would have been great and this would have been their third year under B.O.B's backwards chinese offense. But the reality is we have brock first year under this offense. we shall see how he progresses. I like him so far.

    72 million reasons for Rick Smith to hold him back.

    Savage isn't gonna do ****, he's not good.

    You should've just drafted Derrick Carr in the first place, like any competent team would've done.

    we're stuck with osweiler for at least 2 years.

    they're not going to bench him and admit that they're idiots and terrible at scouting qb talent.

    This. Plus, there's no guarantee Savage will be better. If he's ass then, what?

    Meanwhile, Derrick Carr is lighting it up in Oakland.

    He sucks as well. Just because he's a backup doesn't mean he's good. Brock way outplayed him in the preseason.
