Right, but let's not forget why we're talking about these two guys in the first place. It's because we were discussing if Fitzgerald or Bowe had a bigger disadvantage because of the QB throwing to them. I don't really care about Skelton beyond what he did in 2011.
I know Cassel doesn't have upside. I'd cut him tomorrow if I could. But I also think you're exaggerating how bad he is. Messier's right that he is a very, very good backup.
