    Matt Schaub released by the Raiders

    So do we add another QB to the mix?

    I say why not?

    Sure, what the hell. It's not like there are any other positions that need to be upgraded, we're pretty set everywhere else.

    I think Schaub should be a CHEAP add & won't affect anything else we want to do.

    I would much rather have Matt Schaub over Matt Cassel, but it's too late now.

    I doubt Schaub would be interested in joining a then 4 QB competition.

    He will want a little security to show up and to be at least guaranteed the back up position.

    We can't give him that.

    Matt Schaub is done.

    Unless he feels the need to collect another paycheck, he's on the way to retirement.

    By the start of pre-season football he'll be a 34 year old hasbeen.

    Re: Matt Schaub released by the Raiders

    Let's bring every washed up & never was QB into camp so we can get 50 QBs who can each get 1 minute of playing time during the exhibition season.

    Are we really going to have to see a post of the guy's name every time someone becomes available who would have been a good acquisition 5-10 years ago?

    Lets bring in 9 of them, then complain when the press mentions any other position.

    Schaub is better than anyone currently on the roster. So yes.

    Shows that Whaley blew it again. The Raiders would have easily accepted the Bills draft picks for this player. Whaley should have gone after Schaub instead of Cassel.

    You think a guy in Whaley's position in NFL gets Sschaub's release just like you and I do from the press? Com'on. Whatever line of work you do, just think of your industry ...

    I can guaranetee you the Raiders made 15 calls, if not 32 before they released Schaub. That's just about for anyone teams wants to get rid, except for guy like Peyton Manning when he's still with Indy.

    Guys getting released because no one wants to trade for them.

    A more insteresting question would be what is the Bills pro-personnel department's grading on the QBs. The Bills clearly didn't jump on Tampa's McCown trade bait, but jumped on Vikings.

    Re: Matt Schaub released by the Raiders

    I think Schaub still has a little left in the tank and can be successful in the NFL again. I'd be happy if he came to Buffalo, he was still my first choice of all the available QBs.

    Bring him in.

    Maybe Roman can resurrect Shaubs career like he did Alex Smith by making him a caretaker.

    I would take Shaub ,shove him in competition vs. Cassel and Co.
