A detailed look at the roster. I'll start doing this every five or six years or so, rather than the space-hogging "roster report" pages I had been doing. No way I'll go into this detail every season, though.

If I can afford to re-sign him, he looks like he could be a capable backup to Rasberry.
Keith,
Fred
QB

Also could be good backup, but may not develop as much with no mentor after this year.
