Get a O that fix his strength and he could be OK.

Oh, wrong sub par QB, sorry AZ!

When you are looking forward to a quarterback competition between Drew Stanton (the guy that was chased off of the JETS by Tim Tebow) and *potentially* Matt Cassel (the guy who was beaten out by Brady Quinn)… I feel for you, Cards fans. I really do.

He’s got what it takes to win in the NFL and he’s a high quality character guy.

He was great at Michigan State and really pretty effective in the few games he played for the Lions. He doesn’t have the strongest arm, sure, but he has the ability to find a way to win.

I’m a Michigan fan, so I’m not some Spartans slappy, either. Dude deserves some respect even though he probably isn’t the second coming of Steve Young.

Drew Stanton played at Michigan State. Drew Henson played at Michigan with Tom Brady…went on to play baseball…
Not sure Stanton is the answer but Im assuming Arians has a system that he can plug Stanton into that maximizes his skill set…good luck, Fitz deserves better…

I can’t imagine the Cards don’t draft a QB this year… and as expected, they are going to do it during a poor QB class…

He did play well for the Lions a couple of years ago. I’ll always remember the Detroit-Tampa game a couple years ago, where he ran the two minute drill to perfection, got the ball and went into OT to beat the Bucs and end the longest road losing streak in NFL history.

Although Calvin did make some ridiculous (as always) catches in that game.

But I guess it is testament to the weak over0 over all QB market this year. I’d take Derek Andersen (sp?) over DS, and DA was already in ‘Zona!

That said, he doesn’t have a pro arm. When he has been successful it’s because they have game planned to his strengths but in a full season defenses would figure that out very quickly.

All I remember is that his name is Max and he was about 5’4 145.

And by the way, Stanton played for Michigan, not Michigan State.

JOSH ALPER: I think you’re either thinking about a different Drew Stanton or are pretty terribly misinformed.

All joking aside, Stanton has never had a legit chance to be a starter. He played pretty well in Detroit a few years ago. I wish him all the best.
