Great question. I can't even guess at this point what we're going to do.

I think one thing is obvious. Batch will likely 100% be gone and Leftwich probably has about the same chance of staying (slim to none).

So - we'll have to do something. UFA, trade, or take a youngster in the draft, likely middle-to-early rounds if we do. One thing has definitely changed in the NFL - many rookie's are nearly ready to go as soon as they hit the league day 1 - there's no "standing around on the bench watching the veteran for 4 years anymore".
