I see this as having another arm n competition  for the off-season. Also, it gives them another possibility  if we don't get a qb in the draft we are targeting. They definitely  are still eyeing a couple if prospects. Just got to have extra insurance and possibly  throwing the scent off them in any target.

If we're just looking for a body, get one that we haven't seen before. Draft a late round prospect or an udfa with traits. Take a look at something different. If both are getting cut anyway, I'd rather take a shot on the guy that has .1% of becoming something than the guy that's already proven he's 100% of nothing as a QB prospect. 

We can do that too. Teams need 4-5+ QBs for camp

do you think its a coinky dink that the 2 dudes we have signed have worst arms than Bryce?

Not one bit. Just imagine the QB controversy in preseason games if the team’s backup QB were to show off a cannon arm. A blind man can see exactly what is going on. It’s not that they can’t find viable competition, it’s that it is not allowed. 
 

Dan and co in 2 offseasons have made demonstrable roster improvements from top to bottom except in 1 glaring place…

      We’re in a pickle. My best hope is we protect him and can run the ball vs most Ds and the WRs are healthy so he has every chance to not look like what he looked like in too many games last year.

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.
