If Weis becomes the OC...

...then the natural next step in things would be to get a Weis pupil for quarterback.

Which of these choices would you prefer?

1) Make a trade for Brady Quinn (difficult, but doable)

2) Make a trade to draft Jimmy Claussen (very difficult, but still probably doable)

3) Let Weis coach up a re-signed Matt Moore or Josh McCown

Yes, there is also the option of getting an outside QB, but for the purposes of this discussion, I'm limiting the choices to the options shown.

As a side note, my current thought on Matt Moore is to sign him to a contract similar to the one Delhomme signed when he first came here (2 years, 4 million) and let him compete. If he wins the job or shows he can contribute, good. If not, you aren't out much.

Throw the first round tender at him. Nobody will jump him for that. If he shows something next year, talk longer term.

there's no real evidence that Weis would want to go get Quinn or Clawson more than he'd want to hand-pick someone new.

Granted. I'm just speculating.

Entirely possible that neither Fox nor Weis is coaching in Carolina next season.

But if they are, who do you want under center?

From what I have been seeing..Moore specialty is the deep ball..but he needs to work on the short stuff.

That's odd, considering everyone here says he has poo arm strength.

not disagreeing with you btw. It's nice that we have a quarterback that can move the chains. That short stuff? That's what the running game's for, right? :)

the best option rather than the guy who knows an offense. I can't say who that is really, that's not the point. Fit is important, just not more important than quality. It won't matter, Clawson won't be available and Quinn isn't worth it.

Fox is probably here. Weis is probably not. You don't fire Davidson to get Weis, since Weis is Davidson's guy. There's really no room for both, sadly.

    • The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman. 
    • And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!
    • If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
