Back Up QBs

Look around the league and the back ups are often times dudes you'd never guess are even still in the league. QB2 is more of a coach with a great understanding of the system and essentially acts as a confidant to the starter and helps A LOT with game prep. If Taylor and Burrow want Brandon Allen then I trust that he is helpful to the process.

Lots of times teams will grab an UDFA or super late QB3. I do think the team should constantly rotate those guys through to see if you can strike gold but as far as QB2 stay with what works.

I'm not a big Allen fan but Zac and Joe and Co. seem to be so it's cool. I wouldn't mind, like you say, take a late round/UDFA flyer on a guy just to see if we get amazingly lucky and land the next Purdy fella.
