However, he didn't go to a team with average quarterback play. He went to the team with the worst quarterback play, and by a pretty wide margin.

Jason Campbell may be only say, the 18th best QB in the NFL, but he's going to a team that would have started the 32nd best QB in the NFL.
Exactly. He could be a player who benefits from a change of scenery and does well. At the very least he is better than Bruce Gradkowski and JaMarcus Russell. When a team is rebuilding they do it first by wise moves, and this is a wise move.
