I think he has the skills to develop some true gameskills with time. He might al ready have it by his Oregon time last year but he might be a little bit rough when it comes to maturity. I love the way he can throw the ball but maybe he should convert to another position to gain more playing time?!

Reciever anyone?

No...hes our backup QB, third this year, second next year....he doesnt need to play wideout, we are solid there

We like those bigger QB's, more durable. Look at Roethlisberger. There's no way we have him try and learn another position.

Dixon needs to concentrate learning QB and not WR. He needs all the experience he can get. The team knew he was a project when they drafted him, he'll be a solid QB someday but not yet.

I wouldnt mind him to get to the second string this year. If ben goes down its done for anyways, and we may aswell give him some exp. We are going to drop leftwich next year anyways, so we may aswell use Dixon sooner or later. He wont get exp. from sitting on the bench ^^
