If there was truly a way to upgrade the Henne position by snatching someone off another roster who was available to be pursued, Caldwell would have followed that path.

Vick, McCown, Fitzpatrick, Sanchez, Cassel, and Freeman are no question better than Henne to me. Tjax, Hill, and Flynn maybe as well. All of them were FA this year. I don't begrudge Dave for not going after them because as a bridge to a true franchise QB who really cares it's fine to just keep the guy who has been in the system, and even though all of those guys were probably upgrades they aren't the long term answer either so it's whatever. 

 

The point was moreso that he's pretty much the worst starting QB in the league, or ideally a mid level backup.
