so in a week we'll have Hall, Dobbs, Mullens, and Manion.

Manion gets the boot, no doubt, and then someone goes on the practice squad?

I'm not so sure Mullens comes off IR after this week. Perhaps that was part of the reason for the trade? Otherwise they could've rolled with Hall/Mannion against the Falcons and then had Hall/Mullens in week 10 and beyond with Mannion back to the PS.

Mannion is just pseudo-coach so he doesn't really count.  Otherwise, yeah, I doubt Mullens comes off IR right away.  I wouldn't be immensely surprised to see him stay there through the Bye in Week 13.

there's some ugly stuff in here, but it's easy to see positive traits in Dobbs that would make him a really nice/high end back up. He can win games, especially with a more sound offense and coaching from KO. The weapons, line, and concepts will all be improvements in MN. It'll be interesting to see the balance between the amount of rope Hall gets and how quickly and effectively Dobbs picks up the playbook.

Maybe we'll get another Keenum season and Dobbs goes on a career year stretch 😊.

Honestly not a craaaaazy thought given the schedule and talent on the offensive side. Need JJ back and maybe one of the running backs can make a deal with the devil 😂

If Dobbs plays well, we are eligible to receive a comp pick for him. 

In an ideal situation, Dobbs walks, Cousins comes back for a year or two and we find our QBOTF.

He was living out of a suitcase for about six weeks as the starting quarterback of the Cardinals this season, a stint the 28-year-old Dobbs called a "random" turn after going from Browns backup on Aug. 23 to Arizona starter on Sept. 10.

Dobbs was just getting settled in Phoenix, where he finally moved into a place two weeks ago and only recently received his belongings from Cleveland.

Man, that's gotta suck.
