...both out of the shoot this week in New Orleans AND in the long-run?  Intelligent, inquiring minds want to know (how "the Gridiron" weighs in on this )?

This is a tough one.  I watched him play in college and I wasn't impressed.  The kid was talented and had guts but I couldn't "picture" him as being successful in the NFL.  He lived up (or down) to my expectations until the pre-season this year.  I realize the overall "speed" is slower in the pre-season but this kid played very well.  In fact, I was a bit surprised that he didn't win this job in week #1.  
 
With all of that being said, I think he will be ready this week and I predict 250 yards with 2 TD's.  I also think he keeps the job for the remainder of the year.  Just a gut feel.

Different QB, but same supporting staff.   O-Line that allows sacks, WRs that can't get open downfield, no running game.   I don't see Simms being any more successful than BJ in the long run.  
 
For this week, I'd say there are at least 3-4 better bye week fill-ins, and probably 1-2 each week based on matchups.  I wouldn't acquire him.

Interestingly, Gruden is a proponent of the WCO, yet Simms is anything but a prototypical WCO QB.  I think in the right system he could have (limited) success in the NFL.  Unless Gruden changes his offensive philosophy, then I think Simms will be doomed to mediocrity.
