I would have liked to see him get some experience, so yes. But I can see the logic in keeping him out to avoid David Carr syndrome.

If he shows improvement this preseason then we will have our answer. If he does well and there is upside he is worth throwing in there to let him learn, even if he makes the inevitable young QB mistakes. Unfortunately, Cassel is 30 and is still making the same young QB mistakes.

I hardly consider one half ass show out against St. Louis scrubs promise.
