Canuck
Starter
And no I don't mean Peyton Manning being signed as a free agent. That's not perfect, that's completely out of the realm of possibility.
Much has been said of Brunell being signed as a free agent to start for us. I personally love the idea. He is physically more talented than Fiedler (who isn't) and can throw the deep ball reasonably well. My concern here is that he follows Coughlin to whereever he lands a HC job. Watch this situation closely because outside of Coughlin getting him, I think Miami offer the best situation for the aging Brunell at this point in his career.
Next, we draft a young QB to groom. This is a must however don't be surprised if we get the first part of this potential QB situation solved (signing Brunell), that we wait until next year to draft a QB. With no 2nd rounder, our 1st round pick will likely be used on more pressing immediate needs like WR and OL help. A trade down to the 2nd round to garner more picks AND still land Phillip Rivers would be great however. That is possible and would be a coup for the Fish.
