Trade for Jets: Stanton demanded a trade after the Jets signed Tim Tebow as the career backup was promised he’d be the 2^nd string quarterback in New York when he signed. When I heard this I tweeted “Drew Stanton demands a trade. Uh…you’re Drew Stanton. You don’t demand a trade. You just get cut.” Looks like the Jets found a taker, however. They’re not getting much in return (they get a 6^th rounder for Stanton and a 7^th rounder), but it’s better than nothing.

Grade: A

Trade for Colts: The Colts needed a veteran backup for Andrew Luck and I guess they liked Stanton more than the other available options, guys like Billy Volek, AJ Feeley, Vince Young, Matt Leinart, Charlie Batch, and Curtis Painter (LOL). I don’t see much difference between Stanton and someone like Volek or Batch, but whatever, they didn’t give much up.
