Presumably the Houston connection.

If he signs for veteran minimum, then we could just can Matt Simms.

I'm very much on the anybody but Geno bandwagon, but Schaub is done. That said if he beats out Geno...

I have to wonder what we might be able to garner in a Geno trade scenario. Does anybody think we could get a 4th for a second year QB with his arm talent and more or less two years experience as a starter?
Need a new one for a new board...

Why? Did you see Schaub's numbers last year? 10 attempts, 5 completions, 2 interceptions, 2 fumbles. I know the Raiders aren't a good side but Schaub is a player in terminal decline.

He isn't going to play.  He knows more about the game than Matt Simms.  For a third string QB, you could do much worse.

He isn't going to want to go somewhere that doesn't offer him a chance to play, I wouldn't have thought. If he hasn't got a shot at a starting job anywhere and he's happy just to carry a clipboard a la Mark Brunell, Atlanta probably makes the most sense for him given they know him.

He'd have to be stupid or crazy to think he has a legit shot at starting at this point. But I agree with your Atlanta point.

It's a completely new staff in New York and Atlanta.  I think they're both even.

He's still more familiar with the Atlanta area, that should give it an edge unless he didn't like living there.

Edit: He did go to high school in West Chester, PA. That's not far from NJ.
