If Favre calls it quits do we bring in a Vet as insurance?

[yourout]

I say yes. I have not seen anywere near enough to just hand to reigns to anyone yet. It would be foolish to not at least look around for a Jeff Garcia type player if Favre rides off into the sunset.

Anyone know who might be a good fit?

Schaub or something?

You mean Aaron and Ingle aren't the answer...? :wink:

I say yes..you need three QB's anyway. Does Tampa Bay have Chris Simms locked up?

I know he's not a veteran but who the hell else is out there?

Matt Schaub is out there, he's a rock solid veteran! Possibly a good starter if Mr. Rodgers flops.

He wants out of Atlanta and I think Green Bay should offer him enough money to lure him over here....!

We would need to give up a draft pick for him though, that's a concern.

Otherwise Huard and Rattay are available.

After reading this I agree with Gak.

The only other names on here that I would have any interest in are
Tim Rattay and Damon Huard but Matt Schaub would be my first choice as well.

How do you know he wants out? If that's true, that's great news!

Byron Leftwich might be available from what I've heard. He's either a FA, or might be cut. Seems like a tough guy, and an adequate starter. He's no Brett Favre, but he can win games.

Schaub wants out because he has shown glimts of being a starting QB and he himself believes he can be a starter somewhere.

I assume that. I jus didn't know Schaub actually said he wants out of Atlanta.

He hasn't said it, but everyone knows it.

Personally I believe the Falcons should get rid of Vick and go with Schaub really.

... I took ur words as fact. Thought ya heard something I didnt! lol


I agree. Vick is over rated. I've said it since he came into the league an until he can control his cannon, I'll continue with it.

I would give up a draft pick for Schaub if Favre retires, the only question is how he will be rated, he isn't worth more than a 2nd round pick to me.
