Pats To Host McGee(QB)

[Spiral]

I have mentioned McGee as a late-round, developmental QB in several other posts, but I see him moving up on some QB ratings. He's a good athlete, but he was mostly a sprint-out, option-read QB until last year, when he hurt his shoulder and missed most of the season. At this point, he may get overdrafted. If he's around in the 6th or 7th, consider it, but otherwise, I'd pass. He's a PS/IR guy, with some potential to compete for the 3rd QB position in 2010.

Wha do you think would be a fair value for O'Connell? , I highly doubt that Denver would send the Pats their second round pick (#48), I think a fair swap for O'Connell would be Denver's 3rd (#79) or a condictional pick.

I guess that BB could always trade O'Connell and sign Jeff Garcia, he would be a more than capable back-up to TFB.

Why would the Patriots take a 3rd round pick for KO when they spent a 3rd round pick to draft him in the first place, then spent an additional year developing him? That would be a dumb move for us. In particular the Pats don't need any more picks in this years draft. The Pats would be giving up their backup QB without gaining any value. There's a limit to doing favors.

Jeff Garcia is a washed up veteran. He doesn't have a future like KO. Trading away KO to sign Garcia is an even worse suggestion than the bad trade. My guess is that KO goes nowhere and holds the clipboard for Brady until he is ready to actually see some action.
