I would still take him as a starter over Booty, Frerotte, or Jackson. Between their Def and running game Sage may be just good enough to take them to the level of QB play they need.
Perhaps with less pressure on him as a backup trying to prove himself, getting a starting gig upfront may settle him down some. Professional or no some people are just funny that way.
If this happens, every sack will make me cringe next year. But all the best to Sage. He was the second best QB this team has ever had.
