Don't be surprised if we pick up a free agent QB in the offseason. We'll need someone other than Huard with some experience.

2007 Free Agent QB's

Matt Schaub, RFA, Atlanta Falcons
The free agent quarterback class is light in 2007, but teams in true need of a field general may be highly interested in Schaub. He has an NFL arm and has shown flashes of possibly being a legitimate quality starting quarterback. It is likely that just a handful of teams would aggressively pursue Schaub, but if someone is willing to pay decent money and forfeit a draft pick for Schaub, he could be lured away from his spot behind Michael Vick. In the end, Schaub’s chances of re-signing with the Falcons don’t look good, as Schaub will pursue a bigger role in another offense.

Chris Simms, UFA, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Simms is coming off a decent season in Tampa Bay in which he completed 61% of his passes, but the fast approaching 2006 season will go a long way in determining how welcome Simms will be in the Bucs’ locker room. Jon Gruden is well respected around the league, but he’s also not afraid to let you know if you’re in his doghouse. Simms will need to continue to complete passes if he wants to stay in Tampa Bay. Outsiders might find appeal in the quarterback, even with a poor season, if they think the growth potential is there. In the end, Simms will do just enough to warrant a contract offer from the Bucs, but he still could sign elsewhere if the money is right.

Other Free Agent Quarterbacks
Rohan Davey, RFA, Arizona Cardinals
Shaun King, UFA, Indianapolis Colts
John Navarre, RFA, Arizona Cardinals
Patrick Ramsey, UFA, New York Jets
Tim Rattay, UFA, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Seneca Wallace, UFA, Seattle Seahawks
Anthony Wright, UFA, Cincinnati Bengals
