I disagree - I say let Howell sit this year, bring in a high first rounder next year and promote Howell to primary backup. We're gonna need him anyways for injury purposes.

Howell might have "it" but you aren't gonna find out if a rookie 5th round qb has "it" 5 games into his rookie season. That's a guy that is going to take multiple seasons to learn and develop. And we're wasting his rookie year on a lame duck head coach - best case scenario next year he has to learn another new system.
