Why? He's better than anyone they currently have. He needs to get his weight down and get a full off season under his belt. I'm sure Det. is going to bring in some more QB's this off season. If anything he can be a good backup.

Because they have a couple of young QB prospects and they don't even know what they have in those guys yet. This is a team that needs to rebuild, bringing in a washed up QB doesn't really help accomplish anything. It's a band-aid move for a team that needs a full body cast.

They used a 2nd round pick on Drew Stanton last year. I'm surprised they haven't even given him a look. They've got nothing to lose. Might as well see what the kid has got.

DC= In game, live, tackling dummy until the oline gets good enough to protect the younger prospects.

I disagree that the Culpepper signing prevents them in any way from moving forward. He's not going to just start next week.

He won't play backup.
