Good to see that Beck is working his tail off.. If he actually is given a chance to start, I hope it will pay off when the season starts.
Looking at that picture we need to rename our QB corps the smurfs. I swear QB corps from the 40's are looking at pictures of Beck and Grossman going "man those guys are short." Okay not really but you get the point.

Anyway I keep on thinking about this Vince Young possibility and I just can't help but wonder what the circumstances will be surrounding his signing. How will Young respond to having to compete for the starting job again? How will he feel playing for another coach that won't hesitate to bench him? How quickly will what he learn in Hemiridinger's system translate to learning under Kyle?

I know Beck isn't exactly Peyton Manning but when I look at him I see a guy that was compared frequently to Drew Brees before the draft. I see a guy with a quick release and a good arm that now has a year in the system, with enough mobility to buy a few extra seconds.

I see a guy that played very well in the 09 preseason which is significant because that was the start of his second year in Cam Cameron's system (part of the reason Schuab got traded for two 2's was preseason success). Most importantly I see a guy that won't get complacent. I see a guy that will always work hard and be nothing like the Redskins described by Willie Parker.

Of course the thing is Beck is unproven and Grossman is proven to be turnover prone. Bringing in Young on paper at least gives you a QB that was good enough to be a top 5 pick in the draft on top of the fact that he has NFL experience. He's also still mobile enough to help protect an O-Line that could very easily struggle again and he has an arm that allows him to strech the field.
