And who would that QB be? There isn't a Peyton Manning or Carson Palmer in the 2008 draft. Matt Ryan, Brian Brohm, and Andre Woodson would all be very late 1st, if not 2nd round selections in almost any other years draft.

Unfortanely IMO, Ryan and the bunch don't bring much more to the table than Croyle, especially if the O Line is not rebuilt.

2 out of 3 aint bad....and Ryan has a lot to prove still....

When I read the phrase "Hey Ryan ain't much better than Croyle" that is a typical KC QB fan thing to say.

It comes out every year.

What I've learned in this thread, is that unless you give Cassel studs everywhere, no one can criticize him.

I'm going to go to the other 15 teams in the NFL that have shit QBs and let them know that no fans can be critical of those QBs because they don't have good skill position players.

It's a travesty that Washington is going to replace Jason Campbell, Trent Edwards also subscribes to this notion.

I keep reading this, and it's complete bullshit every time.

Carl Peterson signed players he had no first-hand knowledge of. Pioli was around Cassel, knew alot about him, and obviously had a lot of faith in his abilities.

The only comparison is Trent Green with Vermeil.

Carl Peterson never had a comfort level with any of the 49ers QBs he acquired prior.

I didn't say he wasn't much better than Croyle...I said at the time that I didn't think he brought much more to the table. Was I wrong? Time will tell.

Ryan has exceeded expectations in my eyes thus far....but I was spot on with Woodson and Brohm up till now.

We could go back to any poster on this board and pull up a ridiculous quote FWIW...especially you.

Yep. We just can't accuarately criticize Marc Bulger, Matt Hasselbeck, or Brady Quinn either.

If you said every QB was going to suck you'd get more right than you got wrong, that's the general argument every year. 'QB is risky" "this guy isn't that good" etc etc etc.

It's just to bad that in a QB driven league until you find one you're on the outside looking in.

Its funny how everybody forgets about his days in New England when he had that talent, and still wasn't that good.

If you can truly judge Cassel on the trainwreck that was last years offense, then I will send a letter of recommendation to all the NFL teams in the league begging for you to get a job as a scout.

Only time will tell who's right and who's wrong.

It's really hard to throw WR screen passes man.

That's a little exaggerated as well. Do some of you really think he's going to come in and be a flawless player when he didn't start a real game in 8 years? I mean, he did perform well with top-notch talent, but it's like you can plug and play any QB into that spot and get above average production.

Joe Montana. Hackett was the OC when he was acquired.

And this obviously started the trend, so I'd say it's pretty applicable.

Lol!!!

Deeper and deeper it gets.

The thing is Cassel has the same problem he had when he played for NE, his deep ball is horrible and his accuracy is highly questionable, the further he gets down the field the more wild it gets.

He's still that same guy.
