Remember Mike Shanahan himself spent several days at Pats training camp during Hoyer's rookie season
That's really the point that needs to be made. Good players can be found lots of different places. The flippant dismissals of players because "Oh, he's been a back-up" or whatever don't get anybody anywhere. Luckily the team is being run by people who will judge players on their indivdual merits and not silliness like that.
