Campbell will compete with a rookie next yr.

[Big C]

it definitely seemed like he wants campbell back, but the competition quote he dropped as well seems as if he will bring in someone else to challenge him. we are assuming its through the draft, but maybe he wants to bring in chad pennington or someone to push campbell. either way i really just hope we dont grab a qb at 4.

Pennington isn't mobile enough to work in Shannahans system. Maybe if he was a few years younger he wouldn't mind giving it a shot but I think right now Campbell is the better QB.

^Matt Leinart is mobile enough, no?

Lol, when he's sober. Anyway I think your guess is as good as mine. Here's his scouting report from when he was a rookie.

"Not a threat to run but he shows enough quickness and fluidity to buy extra time from within the pocket. He sets up quicker than his speed would indicate."

"Not a threat to take off and run."

The thing I think Shannahans looking for when he talks about mobility is weather he effectively run a bootleg. I mean remember even Cutler got 200 yards rushing during his last two years with Shannahan. For what it's worth he had 173 yards this year.

And here's Leinarts current scouting report:

Grade: 67 | Key


Comment: Leinart has the physical tools to succeed, but the jury is still out on him until he proves he can read coverage consistently and avoid costly mistakes. He has good height and arm strength, as well as enough mobility within the pocket to be successful in the Arizona system. When he has time to set his feet and throw the ball from the pocket, he has a good delivery and enough short-to-intermediate accuracy to challenge most areas of the field.

I feel like I'm getting mixed messages on Leinart's mobility.
