Dennis Dixon as QB # 2?

Rumblings on steelers board is that Dennis Dixon will be released... would be a solid option to backup Cam.

I'd love Dixon. Or the other Oregon QB in the draft this year, with a later round pick. Dixon would be preferrable.

Would rather use the draft choice on something other than QB.

Getting a sixth rounder that can actually give the team a quality option at that position is rare. If you have a chance to get a player that could be a back-up QB for years, you take it.

Dennis Dixon would be a dang good backup but Im another one that thinks if we can get Russell Wilson in the 6th round, it will be a steal, especially in our system.

Hes a short QB, but his skills are ridiculous and hes got the smarts to be an NFL QB. Im a UNC fan too so no homer here.

Darron Thomas (the Oregon kid) will likely be available as an UDFA. And, if so, would be an excellent signing for the Panthers.

Of course, if people think RG3 would take a pounding because he's smaller than Cam (and I agree with them), Thomas is even thinner than RG3 (I think he may be a bit taller but weighs a good bit less).

But, again, would be an excellent UDFA signing.

    • Sellers is absolutely one to keep an eye on. Could be the next Cam or could be the next Anthony Richardson. Curious to see how he has progressed come this fall.
    • I think Texas could go 0-12 and he would still go #1 based on his name and traits like you say.  But nusselman and sellers may be actually better qbs.    Man if bryce stinks it up this season its looking like a damn good year to swap out qbs.  Sellers highlights are just fuging jaw dropping
    • I mean, the kid comes from a wealthy family. It's not like he needs the money. He has a ton of potential now we get to see what he can do as a starter. Everyone penciling him in as the #1 overall pick is putting the cart way before the horse. It's 5% because of his talent and what he's showing on the field and 95% because his last name is Manning. And if he is what he's hyped to be the Texas coaching staff needs to be answering some tough questions about why the kid wasn't on the field sooner. Ewers was a good college QB but he's definitely not a "keep a future #1 overall pick waiting" type of college QB. Only getting one season out of a top NFL talent because you chose to keep him buried behind a borderline NFL talent is just coaching negligence. Not starting him as a true freshman? Yeah, I get that. But on year two if the kids is what he's hyped to be you gotta wish Ewers well elsewhere and turn the page.
