    The idea that Blake Bortles, Josh McCown or Jay Cutler offer a better chance to win is just ridiculous. I would also doubt Case Keenum here if he hadn't just helped hand the Packer's head to him.

    He isn't going to win this, but discovery with emails from teams and the League could make it interesting if someone was dumb enough to put their two cents down on paper.
    It depends on how you structure your offense. If you don't want or can't run some read option Kap's value goes down.

    Kaps recent problems are due to the systemic oppression of his receivers with his poor accuracy.

    He had ridiculous numbers from the pocket in Kelly's offense and that was running the same five Kelly plays over and over. They were shorter throws, but he has enough arm you could do something conventional with your offense with him.

    It would be a slightly larger adjustment than McCarthy is going to make with Hundley. Probably along the lines of going from Bridgewater to Bradford to Keenum.

    But even if you had to go read option, it would give you a chance to win. Unlike Jay Cutler or a McCown brother.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
