Thigpen's agent, Joel Turner, told PFT this week that his client is, "The most athletic quarterback in the NFL."

Seriously.

"When was the last time you saw anyone in the front-seven catch him from behind?" asked Turner.
"Didn't happen last year.
Hasn't happened this preseason."

Any QB starved team should just jump on this. The kid has some talent. 49ers, Rams, Titans, maybe even the Vikes (for when your temporary plan is done), although I wouldn't like to see that happening. I know I would pull the trigger on a deal. I'd go as high as a 3rd/4th rounder.

Obviously, I'm really high in Thigpen. We'll see how this works out. I was quite high on Grossman as well.

Pigpen is going to take them to victory!

He's gonna tank and lower his trade value

I am really surprise he was on the trading block, unless it was because they hoped they could get something good for him....not a dump off.

He's a decent QB....just a hunch but above TJ and near/at SR level.
Too early to tell, but thought he could have had a chance if there wasn't a project underway here.
Nothing scientific, just some hunches.
