Verner to get the start tomorrow night

Rusty has played in a Pro style offense, he is young, willing to learn, has a great arm and seem to be on target. all he needs is some years on the bench to learn the game. If the Titans dont keep him, someone will sign him quick and make him a starter in a couple years. then we all will feel stupid.

 

Tom Brady was a late round pick, and a third stringer once upon a time too....Just saying.

 

And so were 1000's of other quarterbacks. The odds of Rusty Smith being just another guy are much, MUCH more likely than him being a viable NFL starter.

 

I realize that, and I'm not saying he is the next Tom Brady, however it's worth at least giving him a shot, I mean worst case scenario we lose Chris Simms to keep Rusty. Uh oh.

 

I just get tired of hearing every two years about how Tom Brady worked out for the Pats when we bring an undrafted guy/late round pick in for camp reps.

 

He was burnt on the overthrow from Anderson to Breston in the endzone.

 

Griffin was in the hole on play-action, don't know where Fuller/Hope was. (I am watching the game now).

 

Yea, I tried to keep an eye on Verner... he got lucky twice in the endzone, but he is showing a lot of talent overall. He seems to be giving McCourty a run for his money, and I'd say is ahead of Mouton. Not bad for a rookie in the 2nd preseason game. If he keeps it up he could follow in Finnegan's footsteps.
