As a preface, I think Henne will be our primary starter in 2010.
But, I was thinking of White and his part in the spread offense that we'll look to implement. Obviously, the spread would suit his talents.
But, I was also thinking of the talk surrounding White not fitting the mold of the big strong-armed QB that Parcells champions. Then, I realized that White's not that dissimilar from Tony Romo in terms of makeup. Romo is listed at two inches taller, but I think he's more like 6'1 than 6'2. Romo does weigh more, but I think White will put on some muscle - for the sake of durability, if nothing else (remember how skinny Brady was coming out of Michigan?). Neither has a canon, but both are accurate with adequate arm strength, and both are very mobile - White obviously more mobile.
This isn't to say that White will be a successful, every-down starter like Romo. It's just to say that White does fit the mold of an ex-Parcell's QB and that Parcells isn't above breaking his own patterns if it means winning.
