As for Brohm...it's really not a big deal but I do think he is a QB worth taking a look at based on his scouting report from a year ago. QB's take time to develop...just because GB gave up it doesn't mean he has no chance.

I'll agree Mason is a poor mans version of Betts. I would have prefered they cut Betts also, but on the flip side as much as people want to argue that Mason is "one dimensional" I see Cartwright as being the same thing in reverse. He is not the 3rd string RB for nothing. He never see's the field as a RB for no reason. He just is not good at being a RB and actually has no value to the offense. All he is, is a glorified KR. Perhaps a good takler. I would argue his better role would be as a Safety since he can tackle well. But in the end he does nothing else except KR. He does not even PR. I mean if he's supposed to be good at one thing taking a ball that was kicked and getting atleast 25.6 yrds per carry then stick him on PR duty also. Unless he sucks at that also.
