I'm Calling it Now: Trade for Dennis Dixon

[Jangler]

Holy bad bump Batman!

[Cyberjag]

It's not a bad bump. Dixon is in the same class as Hanie. He's a guy who might become a decent starter if given the chance.

So, if the FO wants someone to start, they go out and get a Dixon/Hanie. If they want someone to mentor Pickles and provide some competition for him, they get a Volek.

I'm on. Lets roll this bandwagon.

[Highlandfire]

No

[Jangler]

I'd take Garrard first.

[Proudiddy]

I would too, if he wasn't signed through 2014.

[Jangler]

We got Clausen for trade bait...huh...huh??

[Proudiddy]

lol

[Ricky Spanish]

[Future of the Funchise]

No Thigpen... He is horrible. I dont think we should waste time on a QB who couldn't beat out brodie croyle.

I'm not opposed to bringing Dixon or Volek in, but just want to point out that Pickles has more career NFL starts (10) than Volek (8). I know he's been in the league for a while, but that doesn't exactly scream "great mentor."

IMO, this veteran mentor stuff is overrated anyway. That's what all these "great coaching hires!!!" are for.

he put up comparable numbers to ben rapelisburger his (thigpen's) rookie year. meaning in 07 i think it was, his numbers were similar to big ben's and ben had been in the league a few years. not bad for a rookie.
