“We really like Case,” Fisher said. Then why was he on the practice squad?
“He was making progress, but he didn’t really get a lot of practice time he would have liked. He was our third, and usually the third doesn’t get a lot of reps."
I still don't know when to believe Fish, or when he's just BS-ing....They obviously knew that he was decent, but circumstances required them to put him on the PS....I must assume they like him more than Davis...just a guess.
teams keep crap on their ps not qb's with potential...if Fisher really liked Keenum he should of been on the 53 roster...using a 7th rd pick to get him back just makes Fisher look even more foolish..and Houston even smarter
after we lost Keenum expected we would bring back Gilbert. Instead Leigh Steinberg had him sign with with NE...and he made a comment about wanting him playing with a top organization...Brady and
Garoppolo ahead of him and he goes there instead of trying to beat out Austin Davis?
most interesting quote...it made me look deeper
@Amitar 's quote...why would the Rams do this? It actually made me change my stance...You guys may have a point...Perhaps the Snisher are feeling a lil heat...Panicking...I'd hate to say that and it not be true but it appears to be a desperation type move..Not sure of themselves...Why not keep Gilbert? Leigh had some drug problems, but what if that's the perception of skill players around the league?
Either that or some of you just like to whine over the small stuff.
Whine, no....just analyze a very innocent off-season move that could shed some light on the inner workings of our organization...We are going to find out a whole bunch about our Rams due to some move made in March...Trust me...we will re-visit this.
IMO, they both have strong and weak points and it's going to be an interesting battle between them in TC and the preseason. Although that battle might not take place if we draft a QB with a high draft pick. I doubt either of them will really get a long and informative look were that to happen. I think the probable result (barring a fantastic or really crappy TC performance by one of them) will be Keenum ousting Davis and Davis going to the PS because we know nobody wants Davis and we have a 7th round pick invested in Case.
I keep wondering, has Davis signed a contract or is he like McLeod, only tendered? I don't know who I like better Davis, who threw for 300+ yards in some games, but threw some huge picks....or Keenum? Still haven't really seen Keenum....
I hope we DRAFT a QB...Seriously....Hundley, Petty...somebody....so we don't have to worry about the 3rd & 4th stringers and what they are looking like...
