Quote:I never suggested that a team would consider pay a high or even mid level trade price for Matt Schaub.     However,  if Schaub's contract wasn't a significant factor,   he's someone who some teams could use as a # 2 QB.       Even as a product of a good team around Schaub,   if he was able to pick up a system relatively quickly,   he would be an upgrade as a # 2 QB over some current # 2 QB's on playoff contenders.     Under that scenario,   without the contract as a significant factor,   a 6th or 7th Round pick would have been worth seriously considering.

 

I just can't agree with that. He has no trade value, and wouldn't have any even if his contract were favorable.

 

He can't win games, that's the basic problem. He's not a young lion that will come in and push when he gets a chance, he's a veteran who has shown what he is, a game manager that crumbles when the pressure increases.

 

He might be marginally better than Henne or Gabbert, but if he were playing for the Jaguars you likely wouldn't be able to tell who was playing out of the three if their jerseys were blank.
