Mark Sanchez at 13th?

IMO we need to let Campbell play his contract season, and take it from there. Colt has been/is being groomed by Zorn and if for some reason we need to part ways with JC after this season, Colt will have every opportunity to audition for the job this preseason and next. If deemed necessary, we should make a splash NEXT offseason for a first round QB and hopefully for one with more experience and/or potential. This is a HUGE if, and for all we know JC will have a career season and get a seven year extension.

on a totally unrelated note, and just out of curiosity, does anyone know if Colt worked out for us before we drafted him?

I agree. I think the best thing to do is see what's what with Soup and make a decision at the end of the year. Let Colt or Collins play if Soup doesn't work out. If Collins doesn't win out then let him go and get an insurance policy in FA next year. Then Draft Tim Tebow or some other bad a** QB in the draft next year. If Colt doesn't work out then you've got another young guy and an insurance policy sitting right there, just like we have now.

First of all, Soup = clever

second, drafting a "bad a** QB" would be contingent upon us having a bad enough season to have the draft power to get a QB of such stature. Third, and finally, if this happens I would not go after Tebow.

If we go 8-8 again we'll be looking for a new QB next year, Tebow or not. With a full complement of draft picks, (barring that the FO doesn't trade them away betweeen now and then) we'll have plenty of fire power to get a talented QB if he falls to us or if we need to trade up. This is the worst case scenario.

The alternative is that we win the division and go to the play-offs.
Either way it's a smart move because they'll have played things through for once.
