Dynasty QBs - Who are the dark horses? (1 Viewer)

Does SSOG being so on about Russell excuse the swing and miss on Fitzpatrick?I still like Tyler Thigpen as far as rostering backup QBs go, along with Matt Flynn (like everybody and their mother), Josh Johnson, obviously Tim Tebow as well.Some lesser guys I think are worth a chance include Brady Quinn, Matt Leinart, Vince Young - weren't they al drafted together, or was Quinn a different year? I just know that they've all got the pedigree, VY in Philly is nice, Leinart could get handed the reins to the HOU offense and Andre Johnson, and Quinn supposedly looked really good in camp.

Why would leinatt he handed the reins in Houston? Schaub isn't old yet.

Leinart has 2 chances to become a starter:1) if Schaub gets hurt. Not saying he will, but he had two seasons at the start of his tenure in Houston where he got hurt. This is a legitimate concern.2) if Leinart gets traded. -this is the more likely option. Honestly I am surprised that one of the teams out there with QB issues didnt give him a shot this year.

Stanzi's probably a guy who gets a chance this year. Cassel has lost 5 in a row including the playoff game last year. KCC is going nowhere fast. He looked okay in preseason (comparatively) but is currently 3rd on the depth chart.

He could get hurt though.I'd add Hoyer and Mallet in there too - Mallet is a physical beast in a great position to learn and grow mentally.
