Mettenberger or Yates seem like the best options in FA. I'd see how much the Bengals would need in return for McCarron.PacificNorseWest wrote:

But if they trade for a quarterback then the cap cushion may be a of use.

Interesting how our perspectives vary, as Mettenberger and Yates are the last options I would consider.fiestavike wrote: Mettenberger or Yates seem like the best options in FA. I'd see how much the Bengals would need in return for McCarron.

Re: 2016 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Bridgewater, Mettenberger and McCarron were all the only 3 guys I wanted out of that draft for the Vikes at QB, so I'm not opposed, but Mettenberger hasn't shown much in his time and he did have some chances in Tennessee.

I don't want Mettenberger. Mccarron, yes. Mett couldn't latch on with SD who has god knows what as a backup

What about Nick Foles? KC has 5 quarterbacks on their roster, he may be cut?

Will we wait until Saturday when the teams cut to 53 to grab a Quaterback?

I heard Mike Vick is working out for the Vikes tomorrow. Maybe he and Hill can combine to give us 16 games cause I doubt either of them stay healthy the whole year.

Only played in a few games. 2:1 TD:INT. But hes able to escape pressure and still sling it. I hope if we sign him he grasps the offense quickPurpleMustReign wrote: How did Vick do last year? I didn't pay mucha attention to Pittsburgh.

Re: 2016 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
Lol no not really saying that. It's just I want somebody mobile. Especially with a questionable OL. Does anyone have any more word on this Vick rumor? Is it legit or no?

Re: 2016 Season General Comments (pressers, practice notes,
I think pocket presence is more essential than mobility. So far in the preseason the center of the line seems to be holding up acceptably well. I honestly haven't watched Vick closely in years, but I don't think his mobility will help him all that much without better pocket presence.Pondering Her Percy wrote:Lol no not really saying that.

I haven't watched much of Vick for the past three years or so, but when I have seen him, he seemed more poised in the pocket. Like, he still has the speed to run, but he's old and he doesn't really *want* to run unless it's too good of an opportunity to pass up. I've been more disappointed with his ability to read downfield.fiestavike wrote: I think pocket presence is more essential than mobility.
