We've got big trouble on the OL.

Could it be your judgment is clouded because you feel Cousins is an unnecessary roadblock on Crompton's path to greatness?

I think having a second young QB is a great idea.

And Crompton is that man! (Or Lindley, Harnisch, or Austin Davis IMO).

I bet there are gonna be some good back-ups availbale in the fallout of the Browns, Seahawks and Dolphins training camps.

Keep in mind that the question marks along the OLs and DBs are about injuries, not the lack of depth (numbers).

And most important and impactful: quality of play.

People are assuming that Jonathan Crompton is the odd man out behind Cousins and and Grossman. But if Crompton ends up having a good camp and a greater preseason than Cousins and Grossman, then the coaches are going to have to evaluate him fairly

[SmootSmack]

Crompton has slightly less than zero chance...unless (heaven forbid) there is some disastrous injury

Brown could be back by the opener, really

And he'll just re injure himself doing yoga. LOL. All kidding aside Brown's body is jut letting him down at this point of his career. He's like the Malcom Kelly of the o-line.

Rookies going to be thrown right into the fire.

Sink or swim.

For the hypothetical crowd:
Long term would you rather have Massie and a late round rookie backup QB or Cousins and a 2013 2nd round RT draft pick?

I like the Cousins move. I just wished that some of the moves we were attempting to make during the offseason would have panned out. Can't control everything though...

I feel strongly both ways.

Ross Tucker said several weeks ago, it is amazing how many teams have OL and secondary issues, and I agree with that. There seems to be a bit of lacking in the "named talent" of the OL pool. Add to that the fact that consistency among the line is a key ingredient to any successful line, and I think our guys who came on at the end of last year ought to be given every opportunity to show what they can do this year.

I agree w/ cutting Brown now. This guy gets more gimpy each year and if anything he just breaks up whatever "consistency" we could have across the oline by starting one of the younger guys.
