bold move

I'm not excited about a veteran just because he's a veteran.  As long as the backup QB is going to suck anyway, why not go with the rookie?  Neither are the Bucs excited about the veteran QBs.  Trask was dumped, Leftwich was left on the sidelines and now Browning is dumped for a UDFA rookie. 

I do expect Browning to be put on the practice squad and be the emergency 3rd QB.  If Baker has to leave a game they'll have to roll with Daniels to finish up, but if there's a real need for a backup to fill in for a few games they'll have the option to go with Browning at that point if they choose that.

It was the right move for the team. If things go south then I'd turn the page on a lot of things and just see what you have in the rookie.

It was the right move.  Daniels gives the Bucs chance to win based on what he has shown so far if he needs to be a spot starter at some point in the season.

Browning looked terrible in the preseason. I am not sure I would keep him on the PS. I am almost certain a better QB option for PS is probably out there. Dude looked terrible all preseason.

Weird how not throwing to Higgins and Chase will do that

think Browning's ego is bruised and said no thanks to practice squad.

Daniels deserved it more than Browning.

Browning was signed for what we endured last year.  Needed to rest Baker and couldn't because didnt have a back-up.

well, i am not sure i'd say Daniels could come in against NFL first stringers and manage to a win either but it is what it is, Browning didnt look good

If your firsts sentence was true there would be a competent vet back up, right? Maybe thats still in the cards

no controversy here.  I think they signed Browning because of how poor the back-up situation has been with Baker.  Trask and Teddy.  yikes.

but Browning didn't produce and Daniels impressed

maybe Daniels continues to impress but asking an undrafted rookie to come into real games and produce, that is as tall ask

It would take a lot for Baker to come off the field as he prides himself being a reliable starter so the risk of Daniels seeing a lot of playing time is low which is why it is a no brainer to go with Daniels.  If Daniels needs to come in for half a game or 1-2 games he is golden and Mayfield will be right at it.  But if Mayfield is out for half a season then it would not matter who the backup QB is at that point.

definitely

I like Daniels, but the Bucs definitely make some odd moves on the back end of the roster. I get Daniels played better than Browning, but seems there had to be better competition out there for back up QB.

mayfield misses half a season then we are best off with Daniels anyway to get him some playing time in a wasted year 

it’s the needs to play a half or a game or two in a must win that I’d worry about
