No vet QB needed. Zappe IS the vet QB. He’s the bridge QB for the next highly drafted QB…and, if he can play good enough, “possibly” THE unexpected next QB. Not likely, but possible.
Zappe is the Bridge QB…Moving Forward

Oh, assuming BB comes back. If he’s gone, then whatever…

People here will probably disagree, but I don't think it's so crazy for the Pats to focus all of their resources on beefing up the O-line & receivers this year. Then, if they are able to acquire a franchise QB down the road, they'll be coming into a situation where they don't have any excuses for not performing. And, we get to see what Zappe evolves into with regular playing time. If he's better than back-up but we still get someone better instead, we should be able to trade him for something.
I'd still want a veteran, even if Zappe is the starter next year. He's still a new QB, learning this offense. It's good to have a veteran to help mentor young QBs. If they end up firing BB, there will liking be a house cleaning of assistant coaches, especially on the offense. Zappe could be onto his 3rd new offensive scheme.

It’s just my opinion, but, it absolutely makes too much sense.

He’s the next Hoyer…100% believe it.

If Bill comes back, then Zappe will get cut in training camp.
This has to be sarcasm.
Zappe doesn't have enough experience to mentor anyone. This won't work.
Signing a vet FA QB to start and mentor both Zappe and the rook is what I would do.

He was until he began ducking for cover on every dropback.

Zappe has a kick ass head space, I’ll give him that…
Fair enough.It’s delirium…
He's out there firing up the guys on the sideline with a 4-11 team, and they're responding, instead of moping with a blank stare after looking that his latest pick on the Surface tablet.
