I'm Calling it Now: Trade for Dennis Dixon


TylerDurden

Recommended Posts

Watch the game tonight. I thought the guy had a future watching him his last year in college. His stock dropped tremendously around draft time b/c he shredded his knee and he was another victim of the "better athlete than QB" stereotype.

The guy can ball. Strong arm, accurate, and mobile.

He was a front runner for the heisman when he shredded his knee. He might be the only backup on a roster I would be interested in. Oh, Brohm too. I learned recently that Brohm grew up in Louisville so he never truly went away from home until he was drafted. Maybe that were some of his issues in Green Bay.

Well, I don't think we'll be able to see much of him tonight apparently, they keep handing off to keep him from making mistakes out of 3rd and long situations.

If you saw him in the preseason, he looked the same as he did in college. The Steelers are going to have to let him throw it sometime tonight though...

YES, bring Dixon in and we can just make the Panthers look like the Oregon ducks. Picture this Dennis Dixon playing Quarterback with Jonathan Stewart in the backfield, Dante Rosario catching balls from Dennis Dixon, Geoff Schwartz blocking for Dixon and Stewart. I can see it now the OREGON CONNECTION, and when Dixon is out Feeley is in.

QB- Dennis Dixon

QB- A.J. Feeley

RB- Jonathan Stewart

TE- Dante Rosario

OT- Geoff Schwartz

I LIKE IT!!!

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
