Re: Why Jason Campbell should stay in DC.

Okay, this thread is overwhemed by people who are not fans of JC and sprinkled with a few that either don't care or actually like him.

The fact of the matter is that Jason Campbell's 86.4 ranked 15th among QBs so statisticly speaking, he is better than 18 other QBs. 12 QBs with ratings below 80 like Matt Hassekbeck. This isn't including the dozens of other qbs that have started a few games like Byron Leftwich. There are at least 12 teams with significantly worse starting QBs than Jason Campbell. Now as yourself, how many great QBs are in the draft and where do the 12 worse teams fall? How many of them want the next eventually great guy and how many think they are a player away or want a good QB now?

To think nobody would want him is to ignore the age of Matt Hasselbeck. The Retiring of Kurt Warner. Leinart hasn't done the job right yet, maybe they would want him to have competition. The Bengals, for instance, have a Carson Palmer (83.6) who has yet to return to form since his surgery a few years ago. JT O'Sullivan is horrible, and Jordan Palmer... even WE passed up on that kid. Not saying it's what I expect, I'm just saying there are plenty of teams for whom the hiring of JC is an upgrade, or at least an option. He's not the best and safe to say he won't be gettinga hall of fame nod, but he's far from the worst and still better than plenty of other qbs
