Bret Hundley

What will GB do with Brett Hundley ?

[Bretsky]

GB gave up a former 1st rounder for Kizer; he's making the team. I don't see a ton of difference between the two. There are a several backups I'd rather have than either.

But I think the Browns wanted to dump Kizer and GB wanted to dump Randall. I doubt either wanted to give up much in the form of draft picks so the deal was proabably just made.

I don't get keeping Hundley as a #3, but I don't know if there is much of a market for him either.

So what does GB do ?

You couldn't get a roll of tape for Hundley. Kizer still has a chance to be a competent NFL backup, maybe more.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I think they will release Kiser. As bad of a decision as that might be, even worse would be to hold on to both projects. The best option is to release Hundley, but all signs are they think they can make chicken salad out of chicken shit.

[Radagast]

I can see GB keeping both QBs.

Hundley traded for 7th round conditional. Boyer on PS. Or Taysom Hill if the Saints cut him to sign Boyer.

Hundley is a better QB than Kizer. I'd like to see (but don't expect) Kizer traded - 3rd or 4th or 5th rounder, whatever. True, we gave up a former first rounder for him, but Randall peaked last year and was/is due to drop off - IMO. That and we had way too many CBs anyway.

Assuming the detractors of Hundley are right about his trade value diminishing, then Kizer should be more tradeable even though he is not as good as Hundley - thus, it's logical to trade Kizer.

I voted for the keep 3. The poll was flawed, though, as it should have had "other" or a choice of keep two with Hundley as the back up.

Yep, I looked at this and said the saints can only roster so many of our project QBs. This is the year we get one through.

Hundly for a used jock strap. Kizer is backup and Boyer makes it to PS.

[mraynrand]

I wonder if the same group of veterans who wanted Randall tossed off the team wanted Hundley to get a chance to compete in camp. Something like that must be going on, otherwise I can't see any reason they didn't send him packing in the off-season. Most people don't enjoy collecting their failures and keeping them close-by. I should know - that's why I booted my kids out the door at 18.

i think you need to stop calling randall a "former first rounder"m like we gave up some huge talent to get kizer

randall was a massive bust who peobably would have been cut if we hadn't found someone willing to trade for him

Going to be interesting to see if he does better at safety.

[Joemailman]

Release him. Any team looking for a backup QB know the Packers are going to release at least 1.

Dude has plenty of physical skills. If they can access his brain case in Cleveland, he could do quite well.

One thing to note: I think Stubby was using whatever specific offense he designed for Hundley on at least one drive. You can see that it will be an offense heavy in check-downs, draws and quick/short pass patterns. Every time there is a call for a longer pass, it all breaks down. Much of that appears to be due to lousy blocking, but there's also miscommunication and 'tuck and run' tendencies. For multiple reasons, with Hundley in there, there is no deep game.

There is no deep game with Hundley because he stinks.

I posted in another thread that twice he had WR that had beat their man downfield and he didn't let the ball fly. One he threw out of bounds and the other he threw a sideline comebacker that Burnett was then able to recover and knock the ball away.

Hundley is limited and will not make the roster this year.
