Ryan Mallett

[FaytownHog]

With the Ravens signing RGIII to a 1 year deal, is Mallett done in the NFL or does he get another shot somewhere else (as a backup obviously)?

[31to6]

Probably depends on whether RGIII can stay healthy for more than a month.

RM is an unrestricted free agent so he can sign with anyone.

Right. The question is, will he? I thought the Ravens might give him another 1 year deal if they couldn't get anyone else but looks like they did.

There's probably someone out there who would take him on.  He made $2 mil last year so he may have to take a pay cut.

He's been in the league long enough now that if he's been careful with his finances he'll be set for life, plus he should he his NFL pension now I think if he was to retire.

He'll never have to buy another Scantron in his life... Oh wait 

[steveaustin69]

At the very least I'd reckon he will continue to post on Hogville.

[311Hog]

he will retire and come back to AR to take Matt Jones' job or Clint's

[hvsupastar]

He's a solid NFL backup IMO I bet he gets another shot.

NFL back up QB's are like crafty lefty's in baseball, they just keep getting recycled. He should land a job as long as his attitude thing isn't still following him.

He's made $9.5m to date, hopefully he's been wise with his money.

Speaking of back ups Chase Daniel has now made $24m with another $7m guaranteed, while completing 51 passes. $600k per completion.....back up QB in the NFL is an awesome job!!

Maybe he can start designing trophies. We don't have one for the red/white game yet

[pigture perfect]

Im guessing someone will pick him up.

[twistitup]

Isn't he opening a nightclub?

Thank God everyone else is -- finally -- resigned to the fact that Mallett is/was/will be a scrub.  You're all about a decade too late.   

Hell, I don't even mind that he's been an embarrassment for seven years, that's much longer than I anticipated he'd be in the NFL.  "You win."

But all those folks who thought he'd be The Man?  You were never CLOSE to being right.

It's sad how much it looks like you're enjoying the failings of a Hog.

And an "embarrassment"? Are you kidding me? Cuz of what? This Hog goes to the NFL starts a few games, mainly is on the sidelines, makes more money most will make in a lifetime...and he embarrasses you? Sad. Just sad.

WTH is this guys problem? ^^^

it was his scantron that Mallett took....lol

[hoglady]

Anyone who defines failure as being a back-up NFL QB long enough to qualify for an NFL pension while making 9.5 million before the age of 30 - might need to re-think their train of thought.

There are 32 NFL teams - 64 QB's in any given year are good enough to start in the NFL or roam the sidelines as a backup. In my book, that puts you in pretty rare company.

"Who wanna give Ryan Mallett a qb job?"
