What is Matt Flynn Worth to the Redskins

[GTripp0012]

To me, the guy I would compare Flynn to (if I were in favor of getting Flynn) would be Matt Cassel.

But I am also not in favor of Flynn, in part because of Matt Cassel.

Probably a perfect comparison.. College backup to pro backup in a phenomenal system who had success surrounded by elite players. It's very risky projecting those players as starters and paying a ton of money on hope.

In what way is he similar to Matt Cassel? These guys are not similar.

I'll basically type what I said in my post but more explanation and maybe since it's an answer to your question it will land this time... College backup drafted late, becomes a pro backup on a team with a ton of talent and a highly productive offense. In limited time they show flashes of ability and production while surrounded by said talent in said system. Similar.

Again, it's very hard to project how they will respond as a starter and with heightened responsibility and scrutiny.

Cassel hasn't been terrible in KC, and even though NE won 11 games with Cassel, he wasn't putting up the same numbers as Brady. He is what he is. I think the year before Brady threw for over 50 TDs. I would have taken Cassel here over the train wreck we've had over the last 2 years.

By the way, thanks to whoever fixed Matt Flynn's name in the thread title. That was starting to bug me a bit.

I'll 2nd that.

I have to admit. This pic has me worried.

I knew between RG3 and Flynn that RG3 would have the uncontested edge in intangibles but it's hard to take an athlete seriously when they smoke cigarettes. Especially when they're unproven. Maybe he's quit since then but still. Not a good sign.

You know, the more I think about it, the more I don't mind a "system" quarterback if within the 'skins system, he's successful and plays with the Redskins his entire career. Why would I care about what he could do elsewhere?
