Who’s the Falcons QB?

The Falcons have released quarterback Joey Harrington after just one season with the team. Reserve QB Byron Leftwich was also released by the Falcons last month.

That leaves only Chris Redman, the injured D.J. Shockley and the suspended Michael Vick as the only signal callers on the Falcons roster.

What do you think of Harrington’s release?

Does it signal to you that Redman, who recently signed a two-year contract, is the starting QB going forward? Will Shockley be his understudy, or compete for the starting job?

Or does this move give conclusive proof that the Falcons will use their third overall pick in April’s NFL draft to select a quarterback?

Sound off here.
