| If we couldn't get garcia, I would not mine Drew. He has playoff experience and he would have a chance to battle the Oregon Quack for the QB job. He has a stronger arm then the Quacker, and has a Superbowl ring |

Drew Bledsoe does not have a stronger arm than Harrington, Harrington never gets to use his. And the mobility of Drew Bledsoe is pathetic, he would provide little challenge to Harrington, and i doubt Bledsoe will start/go anywhere except Dallas under Parcells. _________________

i would shoot myself in the foot if bledsoe wound up in detroit.
every year that guys arm gets 'tired' steady numbers decline.
i wouldnt' even draft him on my fantasy team let alone put him in charge of the lions O.
the last thing Detroit needs is a QB long past his prime. |

I am not even sure what the last comments from eagles1 said In any event, Bledsoe is a definite no! He is one step away from the scrap heap! The only qbs I endorse that are out there are #1, are own Mike McMahan, #1 Hasselbeck(Unlikely) and Griese. The rest are all a bunch of scrubs. We need somebody to push Joey though because we can not endure one of his funks like last season! _________________ Lions to the Superbowl before I die!!!! |

Yeah I would rather have Joey. The only reason the Bills did anything last year was because McGahee and Lee Evans, not Drew. _________________ Detroit Lions: Best WR core in the NFL

This is from a Lions insider. Believe it or don't. Up to you.
| Quote: | | This is all speculation so don't go screaming through out the internet that this is gold, BUT--what I was told is, the conversations going around the Lions arena are that there is only one person within the Lions' organization who is "high" on Garcia. There is another name getting thrown around more often and it isn't Warner(thank YOU). And no, I wasn't told who the "one person" was. |
The first part about the person being "high" on Garcia is probably Mooch. Can we agree there?
The other name is not yet known.
I can't remember, off the top of my head, but there is something like 9 other names among the top 10 QB's that will be/might be available. |

| my money is on Griese or maybe Brad Johnson. Either of those two would come pretty cheap, but have shown reliability in the past. I personally would like to see Griese here, Michigan QB's are always dependable for some reason. Well, except for Henson, but nobody liked him when he was AT Michigan, so that makes sense. |

Drew Bledsoe= No
Jeff Garcia= No
Kurt Warner= No
Brad Johnson= No
The only one they are truly looking at and thinking of picking up is Griese. Trust me. |

I'd like to see holcomb. The fact all his teammates have liked him makes him my choice. He's a good clubhouse guy too with enough talent to possibly push Joey to the next level. Also he's not so old (with exception of Greise) that a 2-3 year deal wouldn't be absurd.
I just don't like Greise's game enough to want him. Johnson, Garcia both get tired down the stretch and would both be backups coming in. I doubt either would want to come in knowing they wouldn't start. Warner's ego won't fit through the door either.
Gannon though is a guy I'd like to see. He is a guy who isn't great anymore, but he never was great, just good at everything and better than most everyone else at the little things. He's very old, he may even be drawing a pension now, but he'd be another guy who could become a mentor to Joey. |

| when management talks about getting a guy to challenge Joey, I'm thinking that's one of the younger guys (Griese or Holcomb). But I doubt we'll overpay for someone who isn't a guaranteed starter, so if they get to expensive, we'll go to one of the older guys to plug a hole and draft someone higher than we might have before. How does that sound? |

Do you have a source or just going with a guess? |

I just heard that Griese restructured his contract? |
