I'm fairly certain Mallett isn't the long-term answer, but it sure would be nice to see him get some snaps just to see if he's any better and to see what we have in him.

I agree. I find myself secretly rooting against Fitzpatrick, who I kind of like as a player, just because I am eager to see (and likely dismiss), the other 2 QBs on the roster. At least a young, unproven guy offers hope. An older, mediocre guy is only ever going to be mediocre. Although Lovie Smith was able to convince himself a mediocre 30 something year old (McCown) was secretly good despite a decade that proved otherwise.
