Quote:My point is that a rookie could do what our veteran backup does... for less. Just because Chad knows the play book is really irrelevant since he doesn't have the raw athleticism to capitalize on his knowledge. I do think that he is fine as a backup... I just think that almost any quarterback could bring what Chad brings to the table as a backup. Why pay more? The implication from previous articles about Henne is that he got a rather substantial amount to stay here.. not just the league average for a backup.

Again, the "for less" thing is irrelevant. I'll take a veteran backup any day over a rookie.

You're not going to get similar capability from a rookie that you're drafting in the later rounds to what Henne or any legitimate veteran backup would bring to the table.

You're welcome to Google Henne's contract information, and you'll see that his $4 million average is pretty much boilerplate for a veteran backup QB.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
