Aaron Rodgers Agrees to New Massive Deal...

[SdBacker80]

I had a feeling Russ wouldn’t be Hawk…kind of why I wanted to pursue a deal for him and didn’t think the idea of the hawks trading him as a crazy idea. 
 

Im shocked that Rodgers is back with GB…last offseason I thought burned that long term bridge.

In a funny work week story, I'm sitting in a meeting and see on my Iphone watch "Russell Wilson coming to terms to be traded to the Bro-" before cutting off. I'm quietly shitting my pants forgetting the Broncos existed and excused myself only to be hugely let down.

Haha.  
 

I would have been amped up if he was a Brown.

we have a QB problem…the sooner the organization comes to terms with that the closer we may get to a Lombardi

I wonder if there's still Browns' fans who exist who think Baker is better than Rogers?

They knock me down but I keep getting back up !

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm sure there are one or two. 

Rodgers - proven commodity,  has NFL MVP AWARDS, Super Bowl ring.

Mayfield  - has that scary word " potential " around him. Got the  BROWNS  into the playoffs,  did beat Pittsburgh. 

Now you judge for yourself.   

Oh will the BROWNS be trading up to draft a quarterback April 28 ?  (seriously now at best they try to get a prospect QB in the Draft, I guess we'll see)

There's no QB in this draft that screams... "Come get me"

My first impression was that Seattle got a super deal.......first impressions are generally the best ones.

Anyone else ?

Yeah I was thinking two 1s and a second, and maybe a good young player.

Fant is a very good young player.  Harris is a good player. Lock is a lottery ticket.

The wagon is securely hitched to Baker now.  Here we go…yeah!!!

Rodgers and Wilson were the “available” prize upgrades this offseason.  

Carr or Cousins don’t move the needle enough.

Everything else is a wash for 2022.

Lets see if we can win it all without a franchise QB

1. Jaguars--- today just franchised tagged their LT
2. Lions
3. Texans
4. Jets
5. Giants
6. Panthers----- QB?
7. Giants (From Bears)
8. Falcons----- Now has a major need at WR
9. Seahawks (From Broncos, part of the Russell Wilson trade)------ QB?
10. Jets (From Seahawks, part of the Jamaal Adams trade)
11. Commanders----- QB? may they now jump ahead of the hawks? 
12. Vikings
13. Browns
14. Ravens
15. Eagles (From Dolphins)  draft capital to jump us for their choice of WR 
16. Eagles (From Colts, part of the Carson Wentz trade)
17. Chargers
18. Saints------ QB?
19. Eagles
20. Steelers-----QB? RIDDER/Howell?

My 1st impression was "wow that's a lot of picks to give up," & I smiled, hoping Denver fades into oblivion. Can't stand 'em.

2nd impression is Denver is the luckiest team in NFL history so they'll improve. 

Short term risk could pay off. I know Wilson had a finger injury & didn't play outstanding last season, missed some games. Only time will tell if it was a good gamble by Denver.

He’s 34…he’s a well documented student of game and he’s actually performed well without offensive line and a running game.  
 

If he plays to his capabilities the next four years (reasonable view of things) Denver did well and they are a playoff team the next four years and a AFC Champ contender during this time. 
 

You don’t really have the luxury to covet draft picks if you don’t have the right QB especially when Malik Willis is potential choice…Drew Lock taught them something obviously.  
 

If I’m Denver my mild moan about this deal is losing a pretty darn good Russ target in Noah Fant.

The silver lining is that Pittsburgh didn't end up with either stud veteran QB that was *possibly* on the market for them to get. 

And this draft isn't a great one to find one either.

I almost think Matty Ice makes sense for them...

[Orion]

Broncos have been looking for a QB for a long time.  The draft doesn't look great.  So, they went the Rams route.  Hey, ya need a good QB.  Especially if you play in the AFC.  

[SdBacker80]

Or any veteran QB with something left in the tank.  
 

They were a playoff team with a veteran QB with nothing left in the tank. 

[jrb12711]

What we just saw with Russell Wilson is going to the norm until it doesn't work. To say it simply, the Broncos didn't give up anything in the long-term if Wilson wins them a Super Bowl. This plan of cashing all your chips in for QB objectively worked in LA, we'll see how it goes in Denver. If Wilson plays at his usual level, Denver is very much set up to be a serious contender.

If Wilson does do that (win the super bowl), it's going to change the landscape of the QB position for a very long time.

Wilson goes from having DK and Lockett to Sutton... 

See if Seattle will send us over DK...

I would love this... But what would it take to get him?
