And you are ridiculously exaggerating how bad Cassel is. Like I said, he is a top-tier backup, serviceable starter at best. You're undermining your credibility if you truly, actually believe Anderson or Hall or anywhere NEAR Cassel's level. C'mon, man. Anderson is barely hanging on to an NFL roster, let alone competing for backup QB. Cassel is without a doubt a quality backup at the very least.
Cassel isn't as bad as you want to suggest he is, and Kolb/Skelton didn't do anything impressive that leads you to believe they're much better. If there's any difference right now between him and Kolb, it's not by very much, though I think Kolb's arrow will go up with experience. Skelton... same deal.

Derek Anderson is bad, no question.
But his problem lies in the fact that he's terribly inaccurate, even moreso than Cassel.
But he doesn't wilt under pressure, and he can read a defense.
So, yes, he's better than Cassel.
