Peyton Manning Indy
Tom Brady New England
Brett Favre Minn
Donovan McNabb Wash
Matt Moore Carolina
Kyle Orton Denver
Matt Hasselback Sea
Alex Smith SF
Troy Smith, BAL
Trent Edwards, BUF
JT O'Sullivan, CIN
Seneca Wallace, CLE
Shaun Hill, DET
Brodie Croyle, KC
Chad Pennington, MIA
Tyler Thigpen, MIA
Tarvaris Jackson, MIN
Jim Sorgi, NYG
Kellen Clemens, NYJ
Bruce Gradkowski, OAK
Michael Vick, PHI
Dennis Dixon, PIT
Billy Volek, SD
Kerry Collins, TEN
Chris Simms, TEN
Rex Grossman, WAS

A couple of notes from above. Obviously Manning and Brady arent going anywhere. I didnt know that Croyle was in the last year of his Contract. THIGPEN IS AVAILABLE!!!!

But on that list of free agents who is really going to be the stop gap for 1 or 2 years to get a rookie into shape? An Aging veteran that might help groom a new QB, well Collins, Mcabb or Hasselback would fit in that scenario. All 3 are older but would be a dramatic upgrade over Cassel. You certainly dont want a New QB fresh out of college learning the "stare the receiver down / chuck it into triple coverage" that Cassel is teaching.

If I were Croyle I'd want as far away from this QB loser franchise as possible....
