I never thought I would do it but I just picked up Bruce Gradkowski of the Oakland Raiders to replace Peyton Manning in week 16 and week 17. Of guys on the waiver wire such as Henne, Quinn, Stanford, Sanchez, Freeman, Boller, I feel he has the most potential and probability of throwing a lot. What do you guys think?

I like the way you're thinking. Gradkowski is a good choice. But, I would also take a look at Sanchez if healthy. Only because they play Indy (week 16) which may be resting starters. This is an automatic backup plan. If Peyton plays, you start Peyton (duh!). If he doesn't and Indy is resting defensive starters as well, you play Sanchez. Same goes for Jets week 17 when Cincy probably has clinched and they might be resting starters.
Hey Smart ###, Payton will not be playing week 16 or 17 much, maybe 1 quater in each game. Stop being a #### and let's discuss things as that is what this forum is for. Or is it just to show off what a #### someone can be?

Way to be excellent! Do you coach the Colts? Or are you psychic? How do you know Peyton won't be playing much wk 16 & 17? If Indy keeps winning, it's entirely possible they will want to reach that elusive 16-0 mark and he'll be playing enough to make it happen.Hey Smart ###, Payton will not be playing week 16 or 17 much, maybe 1 quater in each game.

If you have some secret information feel free to share it, but you can't expect to not get flamed when you post that you're starting Bruce Gradkowski over Peyton Manning. If you want to ask about a potential back-up plan (should it become necessary), that's a different story...

Ummm, I picked up a 3rd QB for the playoff stretch because Manning might not play the whole game in week 16, my championship and because my 2nd is banged up. The OP seemed to be referencing this situation and even tho he lost control in his next post I find this topic to be completely relevant. I would rather have Gradkowski than Henne and Cassel but not as much as Gerrard and Alex Smith.
