Here are the UFAs avaibable this offseason who could be had as backups most likely. This list may be a bit off as some of these guys may have already signed, but do you reall think that someone like Simms, Ramsey, or Losman couldn't decent enough as a backup to be able to trade Sage for a draft pick? Also, Garcia isn't on this list because he could end up as a starter, but I would feel just as confident with him as a backup as Sage anyday. also, just noticed that someone already posted this list, but i had already typed this out so i am posting it our of principle.
Chris Simms/Tennessee Titans/UFA
J.P. Losman/Buffalo Bills/UFA
Byron Leftwich/Pittsburgh Steelers/UFA
Rex Grossman/Chicago Bears/UFA
Kyle Boller/Baltimore Ravens/UFA
Luke McCown/Tampa Bay Buccaneers/UFA
Patrick Ramsey/Denver Broncos/UFA
Brooks Bollinger/Dallas Cowboys/UFA
Dan Orlovsky/Detroit Lions/UFA
Charlie Frye/Seattle Seahawks/UFA
Charlie Batch/Pittsburgh Steelers/UFA
Anthony Wright/New York Giants/UFA

If it is week #14 and the Texans are 8-4 and playing the Indy Colts for the division lead and MSchaub is out two weeks with a cracked rib, I'll take Sage Rosenfels and you can have anybody on that list of yours plus a 5th round pick... Do you really like your situation better than starting Sage Rosenfels. Don't forget, this is Sage's 4th year in this offense, throwing to this group of receivers. That's significant!
