Backup QB...Who to pickup? Garrard, Edwards, Flacco?

Postby SonOF » Wed Sep 02, 2009 8:09 pm

I'm trying to find a quality backup quarterback to use on my starter Matt Ryan's bye week (week 4); as well as obviously serve as insurance in case Ryan gets injured. On draft day I took David Garrard; I was debating whether I should hold on to him, or grab one of the other QB's that are on the waiver wire. Here are the guys available in my league:

Kyle Orton
Trent Edwards
Jason Campbell
Joe Flacco
Jake Delhomme
Brady Quinn
Marc Bulger
Jermarcus Russell

So out of these guys, who will have the better year?


Thanks in advance.

I like Flacco, the Ravens are showing signs of opening up the attack for his strong arm and he is moving up the ranks of QB2 options- he also looked great against the Panthers.

Hands down...Edwards. He has TO and Evans to throw to this year. He's going to have a HUGE year.

Except for the fact that he won't be able to throw from his butt since he will have 2 Rookies and an Ex-Panther Back Up as his O Line, lol.
