add QB to practice squad:

G TRE STALLINGS PROMOTED TO 53-MAN ROSTER, GREENE ADDED TO PS

Kansas City Chiefs President Carl Peterson announced on Thursday that the club has agreed to terms of a three-year contract with G Tre Stallings, adding him to the club’s 53-man roster from the practice squad. Per Chiefs policy, no other terms of the agreement were made available. In addition, Kansas City added QB David Greene to the practice squad.

Stallings (6-3, 315) originally joined the Chiefs as the first of their two sixth-round picks (186th overall) in the 2006 NFL Draft. He was on Kansas City’s 53-man roster during the entire 2006 campaign, but was inactive for all 16 contests. He attended training camp with the Chiefs in 2007, but was released prior to the start of the season. Stallings joined the club’s practice squad on October 3rd.

Stallings started 48 consecutive games at Ole Miss, drawing 29 starting assignments at left tackle and 19 at right tackle. His 48 starts tie him with G/T Marcus Johnson for the most in Rebels history. Stallings prepped at South Pike High School in Magnolia, Mississippi.

Greene (6-3, 226) originally entered the NFL as the first of Seattle’s two third-round picks (85th overall) in the 2005 NFL Draft and served as the club’s third quarterback for 16 regular season contests and three postseason games, including Super Bowl XL. He was inactive for 12 games in 2006 as the Seahawks third quarterback and saw duty as the Seattle’s back-up quarterback for four contests. Greene attended training camp with the Seahawks in 2007, but was released prior to the start of the regular season. He joined New England’s practice squad on September 19th before being released on November 20th.

Greene started an NCAA-record 52 consecutive games at the University of Georgia, becoming the winningest quarterback in NCAA Division I history with 42 career victories, surpassing QB Peyton Manning’s record of 39. He prepped at South Gwinnett High School in Snellville, Georgia.

Pretty much, I think his arm is a little better than that. Think a slightly more physically talented Dorsey, because he doesn't have the rail thin build either.

That really has nothing to do with how productive he was in college.....the Ravens used a 2nd rounder on him to basically be a backup which turned out to not be bright.

He played with tons of NFL talent that's the point, guys like Leonard Pope, hell Fred Gibson had NFL talent he just isn't in the league cause he has a rock head.

David Greene was absolutely brutal with the Seahawks. There is a reason they dumped him for Charlie Frye.

They could put freakin' Gene Stallings in on the O-line and it would be an upgrade.

Braincase · 12-07-2007, 06:35 AM

At this point, we just need QB's, and at the rate they're falling, Greene might be the starter vs. the Jets.

He didn't throw Int's but in general he has a pretty weak arm and is really bad when asked to throw the ball long, unless the guy is wide open like in that youtube link.

David Greene is like a left handed Damon Huard, which on a college team loaded with talent won a lot of games.

well I'm sure Damon Huard would make a great college QB...if Huard was in college, he'd probably win the Heisman

Winning in college does not equal winning/success in the NFL. Look at Ken Dorsey, Eric Crouch, Jason White and many, many others.

Ever heard of a losing college QB who succeeded in the NFL?

Yeah, what's your point? Have you even seen David Greene play?

Tom Brady was 20-25 as a starter in college.

I don't know if Cutler has succeeded, but his college team was pretty bad.
