I think it's funny how a lot of people are acting like Beck is just another scrub. I'm not saying he's not, but I found it interesting from Brennan's interview on 106.7 FM after he was cut that Mike Shanahan told him that he was interested in Beck and was going to draft him but another team beat the Bronco's to doing so. Brennan said he was told they were interested in Beck all a long and when they had a chance to get him they traded for him.

What it tells me is Shanahan likes Beck and his abilities and Shanahan thinks Beck will do well in his system. I keep hearing how the team might only carry 2 QB's and that Shanahan has done it before in Denver. I don't think Beck can be put on the practice squad so keeping him would mean keeping 3 QB's.

I did not know that MS had interest in Beck back then. It may bode well for him if he can make some plays in camp and in the preseason.

Hell he may be the future!

I was suprised as well. I don't get the impression MS is the type to lie to players so when Brennan did his after cut interview and spoke highly of both Shanahan's and mentioned what MS supposedly said about Beck my first thought was perhaps Beck is better then everyone thinks and MS can get him to play well in his system. The way Brennan made it sound Beck is MS's guy and I was left with the impression that perhaps Beck might be the person to take over after McNabb since he was so infatuated with him.

I hope this works:
The LaVar Arrington Show with Chad Dukes – 08/3/10 5pm-6pm « 106.7 The Fan – DC Sportsradio

click on the first segment and listen. At the beggining around 1:25 Colt starts talking about how Shanahan told him Beck has always been his guy.

Watching Beck play the other night compared to our other 2 qbs I think i may have to retract my statement. I do not think Beck is going to be anyones QB of the future. He did not look very sharp at all, not even a flash of sharpness! lol

Also I am very interested to see Banks returning punts for the rest of the preseason. I know he flashed very well the other night, and I do hope we have found our PR gem in the UDFA class.

He seemed to have better speed and burst then that of Austin who i hasd thought would be the better option but after Friday night it is all Banks for me.
