Jimmy Garoppolo Speculation
-
Hey, did any of you dinks get a chance to read Daniel Jeremiah's recent NFL.com article where he asks 5 NFL GM types which current NFL QB's they would attempt to get if they were desperate for a new QB?
Two out of five specifically mentioned McCarron as the player they'd target, and one even suggested a trading a 2nd or 3rd round pick as a reasonable strategy.
None of the five felt trading for Garappolo or staying put to draft Trubisky was the answer. In fact, even Davis Webb got more votes than those guys.
And Dick Shiner wasn't mentioned at all.

It doesn't matter what others think. It matters what Sashi Brown, Andrew Berry, and Hue Jackson think.
Those 5 GMs that were asked apparently ARE NOT desperate for a new QB. Jeremiah should reveal who he asked. If those were the GMs of the Bears, 49ers, Jets, Cardinals, and Browns....then the article may have some relevency. Otherwise it is just folderol.

gftChris --- Wrong again. Of the 5 GM types polled McCarron was mentioned twice, more than any other QB. The trade cost was projected to be a 2nd or 3rd round pick.
I found it amusing how none of the GM's cast a single vote in favor of trading for Garappolo or drafting Trubisky.

Provide the link. Because honestly....we don't trust your interpretation.

Gip---You need a link to NFL.com?
You mean this article, where one NFL GM said McCarron, two said Romo, one said Cousins and the other said Davis Webb?

OK, well....everyone has an asshole....some have two....and everyone has an opinion...some have more than two.

Gip---I told what the article was about, who wrote it, and where to find it. Even TCPO was able to find it in a few minutes.

Except Romo. I mean, are you really trying to sell us on AJ McCarron, franchise saviour? It's not like he's backing up Brady, if he were that good he'd beat out the red BB gun.

gftChris---Dalton just played in the Pro Bowl. Again.
Which doesn't count for much, to be honest. The amount of players that end up getting in that game is obscene. I'm not saying Dalton is *bad* but like I said first time, he's not exactly Brady. The Dalton Line is a thing for a reason, and McCarron is clearly below it.

TexasAg1969---Common courtesy has nothing to do with it. Gipper insults people while asking them for information. Ain't nobody got time for that.

gftChris---Playing in the Pro Bowl doesn't count for much seems like big talk for a guy who spends his weekends rooting for RG3.

gftChris---How can we be done when you never got started? As for constructive content, you can belittle the Pro Bowl all you want, but I think multiple appearances in that game make a mockery of your rant about McCarron being a back up Dalton. McCarron and Garappolo are both considered potential starters who haven't gotten a chance to play much precisely because the starters ahead of them are unchallenged. Why anyone would want to waste time debating how much better Brady is over Dalton is beyond me, but who am I to judge how a brownie fan spends his time?
BTW, there are a couple of named GM types who have weighed in on this. Charlie Casserly says Garappolo is better than any QB in this draft. And Bill Polian goes him one better by saying AJ McCarron is better than any QB in this class AND better than Garappolo too. Funnier still, Polian practically spits whenever someone mentions drafting Trubisky 1st overall.

I didn't insult you. You insulted yourself. Your belief that there is no mindset that teams refuse to trade intradivision is just mind numbingly ignorant. Can't help it that you cannot discern that for yourself.

So, are you saying Polian and Casserly are infallible? While Polian has made a lot of good personell decisions, he is not faultless.
While Polian has done a great job building the Bills and the Colts, I am sure he has made mistakes. He is best known for taking Peyton instead of Ryan Leaf. By the way....he is NOT the guy that drafted Jim Kelly. That was done before he got there. But....he may have been the guy that got Kelly to go back to the Bills after his USFL stint.
Hey....WTF. If both guys are right....then maybe all the other personell people of the NFL will listen to them and not draft any QBs in round one. They will all be on the board for the Browns for us to ponder at pick #33. That is what would happen if both Polian and Casserly got their way, no? Think that will happen? Not on your freeking life.

I don't think anyone is saying "saviour"... simply another option... one some of us like better than the other options before us.
Bill Polian goes him one better by saying AJ McCarron is better than any QB in this class AND better than Garappolo too.
Had not seen that... I did see him state that AJ's end-of-2015 stint was more meaningful, more pressurized than JG's first 9-quarters of 2016.

I think he implied that yes, McCarron had more experience in more meaningful situations.
