its all based on the teams value of him and if they think the QBs available in the 2nd/3rd round this year (Colt, Tebow, etc.) will be better than JC in years coming. if they don't think those players will eventually be better than JC then age doesn't matter much.

Well you've got longer to figure that out as you still wouldn't know if JC is that guy that you can rely on. If they both end up backups why not have one that'll play 5 years or so longer and be worth more when it comes to a potential trade in a few years.

btw welcome to the warpath

all i'm saying is if a team thinks JC is the immediate answer then i think they may give a 3rd for him.

Especially if the draft is in the 3rd and, for whatever reason, a team still does not have a guy for next year. JC's value may rise during the draft.

I agree. Someone will be very uncomfortable with their current roster, or, not that I wish it or anything, but someone always gets hurt in T.C or the preseason.

His stock is steadily rising the closer we get to opening day, IMO. I think if we wanted, we could definitely get a 3rd rounder for him, soon. Getting a second is a little shaky, we might need to package up our 4th rounder with him for that to happen.
