    Half our starters/significant playing time going forward are going to be from the past 2 draft classes

    2014: Lewan, Sankey, Williamson, Mettenberger, Huff (Nickel/Safety)
    2013: Warmack, Hunter, Schwenke, Stafford, Wreh-Wilson

    You can also throw in Mike Martin, Daquan Jones, Sensabaugh, Gooden, Thompson (when healthy again), Wright. (Some going back 3 drafts)

    That is a lot of turnover and a lot of youth (I also expect to see Wooten and Andrews more)

    CBJ holds on to the ball longer than any QB I've ever seen!

    Wooten is a beast. He just needs the chance.

    I am very glad that we made this move. I like Jake Locker as a person, but he is not a franchise QB because he can't stay on the field. So if you don't have a franchise QB then you have to try and find one.

    This will give us 8 games to evaluate Mettenberger. If he is the guy then great. If he isn't then we will most certainly have a pick in the top part of the draft.

    My expectations for the season are that we are going to lose a bunch more games. I don't expect Mettenberger to be the savior. I want to see Mettenberger improve throughout these 8 games.

    The ideal scenario is that Mett proves he can be the guy, but we still end up with a high draft pick which we can use on a defensive playmaker.

    I hope Mett proves to be the guy. I don't expect to win much with him but would like to see better play at the position.

    Trades Rumors:
    Washington
    Griffin

    If we can get any kind of compensation for these guys would be a plus the extra draft picks could come in handy for moving up and down the draft. Along with trading our top pick to acquire more picks if Mett is the guy.

    I would also look to see if we could get anything for Locker if he is not the guy and role with Mett and CBJ the rest of the season.

    I would be thrilled to get a 6th or 7th for Griffin. Get him outta here.

    Zach has a whole lot more upside than The Rifle did, and did more in preseason than The Rifle ever did. It could be a possibility, albeit doubtful
