Derek Anderson?

[CatMan72]

I haven't seen this discussed much (or maybe I missed it) but given Chud's previous success with Derek Anderson and the likelihood that he will be released by the Cards, I could see DA as a vet FA QB we potentially target.

I could also see a scenario where we trade down to the Cards 5th overall pick and take Anderson as part of the deal...

PLEASE no! :eek:

Carson Palmer, Kyle Orton, or bust.

He's not the answer, but I could see it happening. Doubt he'd ever have another year like that one but it's enough to make teams consider him

I think he's likely to get cut, so I wouldn't bother with the trade. I think it would make some sense as Pickles doesn't seem to fit the more vertical game that Chud wants to go with. If we don't draft a quarterback though, it will be a long season of musical quarterbacks with him, Clausen, and Moore (or some free agent).

I think he wouldn't be too bad. C'mon guys, we only need a QB for one year until we draft Luck

Yeah, I don't think he would go to another pro-bowl but Chud might be able to get one or two more good seasons out of him.

NO NO NO! Anderson had one good year when the stars aligned in a perfect way. Anderson was on fire, Edwards could actually catch, Winslow was having a great year. Lets just hope Chud doesnt have some kind of weird crush on him still...

[CatMan72]

I do think some of Anderson's struggles may be related to trying to run an offense that was designed for Kurt Warner... I'm not making excuses for him, but this could have been part of the problem?

If anyone knows how to get DA's best, it's Chud...

Eh, maybe. But to be fair, he did struggle in the exact same offense he succeeded in the year before. It might have just been a one year thing.

Hasselbeck is the best available option atm imo

This ain't happening :D

I'm just worried about Hasselbeck's health.

Even if it is Barkley, Luck, or whoever...I think next year's draft will be better to get a QB. If we pick one this year with that 1st pick, we are settling for what is out there.

not sure, I got some friends that are Hawk fans......Charlie Whitehurst blew but many were wanting him to get a bigger shot. The guy we watched in the playoffs ain't the guy we would be getting.
