In the wake of his demotion to the backup quarterback role in Carolina, there has been much speculation that former Heisman winner Chris Weinke is destined to fall behind rookie Randy Fasani.

At least one pro scout thinks that talk of Weinke sinking to No. 3 is "ridiculous." The scout tells us that, while Weinke performance was so-so during the pre-season, it wasn't so bad to justify a plunge to the bottom of the depth chart.

On a separate note, we get a real kick out of Carolina's explanation that Weinke is still the team's quarterback of the future, even though he isn't their quarterback of the present. As we recently reported, coach John Fox already has decided to look elsewhere for help at the position -- and the team's statements to the contrary might be intended to deflect criticism regarding the decision to pass on quarterback Joey Harrington with the second overall pick in the draft.
