Love him, or hate him, anyone who says that a guy who was thrown to the wolves in his rookie season with ZERO first team pre-season snaps, who had played entirely against bush league competition, did not do an admirable job, is just a dumbass. I really want to draft a QB, but even if we do, I have no problem starting the season with Thigpen, and would actually prefer it, while the other QB gets up to speed. Considering the circumstance, Thigpen did a damn good job. Spread or not. The guy had absolutely no time at all to get ready for the pro game, and still put points on the board. I want him to stick around, I just don't think his ceiling is high enough, becuase of his accuracy issues. Those are hard to fix, bit I would feel comfortable with him standing next to Haley by week 10.
