Des is a great competitor, but not a good NFL QB. He has always lacked the accuracy and touch necessary for a good NLF QB. I'm not sure that is something you can practice and get that much better at. I think you either have it or you don't. With that said, his numbers are serviceable for a backup. He can win some games for you in a pinch. 8-10 as a starter on some mediocre teams, 16/14 TD to INT, 63.6% completion, and with his legs and youth it's a good pickup. I'm really surprised he didn't stick with the Raiders as a backup, though the consensus with their fans was that he sucked.
