Well, Seneca Wallace is going to just be awful, I think, and I think Travis will get a shot at some playing time.

Lets not for get that David Greene is the third quarterback and Lulay is pretty much stepping into the role of scout team QBBleedinbluengold wrote:Well, Seneca Wallace is going to just be awful, I think, and I think Travis will get a shot at some playing time.

Okay, so first let me say I think this is awesome and congratulations to Travis!
Now on to the selfish side of me. Does this affect the Cats at all? I know Travis has been here helping out and has been up in the booth with Bailey most of the season. I have got to think that it has been a big help having Travis up there watching the plays unfold and seeing where the defenses were vulnerable.
Good luck to you Travis, show em what you're made of!

Nothing on the NFL wire yet, but it usually takes a while. I did see this quote from Holmgren last night.
"Holmgren said the Seahawks are considering signing a veteran,
free-agent quarterback to back up Wallace until Hasselbeck returns."
That is good news that they don't have a lot of faith in the third stringer so hopefully Travis will get his chance. How much does someone get paid for playing for a couple weeks?

275K (rookie minimum)/17=16,176 a week. But that is if he is on the active roster. If he is on prac. squad its 4K a week.rtb wrote:Nothing on the NFL wire yet, but it usually takes a while. I did see this quote from Holmgren last night.

Either way can you imagine. You are sitting in class on Monday trying to finish your degree and if you are lucky you will make 40-50K a year when you graduate. On Monday night you get a call that at minimum you will get 4K a week for playing a game. Crazy!badasscat wrote:275K (rookie minimum)/17=16,176 a week. But that is if he is on the active roster.

Sweet! I was just on the Seahawks site searching for this and could not find anything. Good luck Travis! Show 'em what you've got!

Hate to toot my own horn but, did I call this or what?
BTW Chris, we can't make it down this weekend since we have that playoff game so, have your brother do with my tickets what he must.

I bet they are totally bummed out that Jeff George has already been signed!rtb wrote:Nothing on the NFL wire yet, but it usually takes a while. I did see this quote from Holmgren last night.

This morning on Hasslebacks radio show he said he wasn't sure they would be signing anyone. I heard last night they were talking to a former 49er, maybe Cody Pickett the former UW QB.

It was mentioned at the CC this morning that Travis is out there today for a tryout, along with a veteran. He will know this afternoon if he's selected. If not, he'll be back here tomorrow.
Good luck Travis! I love you helping with the team, but I'm really pulling for you to be able to stay out there.

Just as a side note, E.J. has a tryout with the Niners today and he is kicking against Joe Nedney. Hopeully he and Travis can make great impressions and get opportunities.

I would love to see Trav suiting up but playing time will not be in his future. Holmgren is very finicky about his quarterbacks. I say we should be thankful that Travis is getting another shot because that means he has done something right by Holmgren. I also don't think Wallace will do that bad. I love his legs!Bleedinbluengold wrote:Well, Seneca Wallace is going to just be awful, I think, and I think Travis will get a shot at some playing time.
Thanks for the update on EJ...Prof!!!

I see where the Niners signed a kicker who wasn't named E.J.....damnit.

Lulay didn't make it! 
He tried out with Shaun King and neither one got signed. The QB coach told him he looked better than in fall camp and he is still on their radar. Not great news, but it sounds like he will get his shot in NFL Europe.

Dangit, I just got an e-mail from a friend who works for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer (dumb name). Lulay wasn't signed, they went with Hamden, the guy who was cut earlier than Travis but had the big year in Europe.
