Back to reality: Lemon not the answer

[Finshizzle]

We are in deep [edit] at the QB position, what are we going to do next year? Do you guys think Lemon is the answer? Sage sure isn't, are there any quality free agents out there next year? how about the draft, will we pick a QB? So many questions!!!! So little answers!!!!

Mod Edit: Please go back and read the TOS regarding circunventing the profanity filter.

There's no way Lemon is the answer to our QB woes unless he magically turns into Tom Brady. I'd like to see the Fins get Rivers. Or maybe draft an underrated QB like Drew Olson, Marcus Vick, etc...

This is the beginning of rebuilding that position for the future.

Something will be done regarding the QB situation. A lot of time between now and the offseason. Saban might draft one (depending where we pick) or sign a FA. David Carr might be there. And Rivers. Lemon is a backup, not our starter.

Why not? He has great mobility and seems to have above average pocket awareness. I know it's too early to say he is the answer but it's also way to early to say he's not!

If you checked some of the articles floating around he didn't have a great support staff. The other teams that released him maybe didn't give him enough time in there systems.

lemon isnt supposed to be the answer. if he becomes a good player, thats a bonus

Like I said, if he turns into the next Tom Brady, he'll be the answer. But remember, we tried that with Feeley already and it could be years until this method succeeds.

Effectively, it was AJ for a 6th round conditional pick. Lemon's just the wild card in the trade.
