Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to his
NFL.com scouting report, Whitehurst is an interesting prospect because he has many of the tools to be a successful quarterback in the NFL and has the lineage (his father played quarterback for the Packers in the late '70s/early '80s). ... He'll compete with A.J. Feeley for a reserve role behind Philip Rivers.
