If he's healthy, signing Durant is a good move for the Bombers. Like Nichols, Durant is a drop back passer, not a scrambler, so Durant can be plugged into their existing offence easily if Nichols goes down. Masoli is a scrambler, so we need a backup who plays the same type of game (like Manziel) as #2 here.
Near the end of last year, Durant had obvious trouble throwing 10 yard passes accurately due to shoulder issues (often showing a real lack of arms strength/accuracy). He's probably all healed up now, but if he gets landed on, or thrown down the wrong way again, he'll be toast. Just like Collaros with the concussions/knee.
Anyone with experience and a skill set beyond plunges and sneaks
??
Hey, we are in pretty good shape at QB, June Jones has his #1 guy in Masoli.
Wondering who will be our Backup QB isn’t the worst thing to have to overcome.
There is lots of time, training camp is still 4 months away, It will get addressed.
Personally, I wouldn’t mind LeFevour coming to camp.
Settle out the Johnny Football thing either way and we will know where we stand from there.
I think SSK’s 25 yr old Vernon Adams will be released, Corky is paying Collaros and Bridge way more than he is comfortable with and Adams is due to make $90K this season as a 3rd string QB.
I could see June Jones wanting him, He came out of Oregon Ducks(Masoli) and also East Washington State, program of both Bo Levi and Matt Nichols
Ok letz see, 3 one yard plunges adds up to … turnover on downs!!! Seriously we are talking about a back up guy that is promoted to starter because there is noone else and we want another back up guy whose claim to fame is a 1 yard plunge! Wow! Scraping the bottom of barrel now.
Same criticisms of Durant right now were said about Glenn years ago up to and including the accusation of quitting on his team which is currently making the rounds in SSK.
