  • So....What teams are currently in the market for a QB:

    1.  LA  Chargers.   Seemed like a natural spot for Brady....that circus left town

    2. New England.   Now without an experiences starter.    Some say that they may trade for Brisset to come back. (skeptical)

    3. Miami.  though they have both  Fitzpatrick and  Rosen. 

    4. Bengals.  Likely to draft Burrows  (hoorta gets my bottle of cheap rot gut wine if they do 😉

    5. Denver.   Or are they locked in on Lock? 

    6. Chicago.  Rumors are the Bears want someone to push...or replace Trubisky

    But now, is it fair to say that the Jags now replace Chicago on this list.....or are they all in     on Gardner Minshew?

    And are some of you are saying that Denver is in fact all in on Drew Lock?

    Still, with the Bangles going for Burrow, that leaves 3 teams needing a QB....though, as noted, Miami has 2 of them.  

    Chargers in particular have made no move.  Unless you think they are all in on Tyrod Taylor.

  • I think LAC is fine with riding TT for a season while the QB they draft learns for a year.

    Sound familiar?

    Works for any of the 3 QBs they'll have a shot at in this Draft class.

  • Jags...

    Minshew is popular enough with the fans that the Jags can ride him for better part of another season before the novelty wears off if he faceplants. Buys the franchise time...

    Josh Dobbs is the backup as of now.

    By a miracle they actually have a little room to sign a 2nd tier QB. Trevor Siemian is one name that caught my eye. Played decent ball in his first starting season in Denver, but couldn't replicate it... so could be he's just another backup ala Foles who can perform if needed for short runs.

    And they'll draft a QB... just looked and they have two 1sts as well... 1.09 and 1.20. They got the latter from the Rams in the Ramsey trade. So they can compete for one of the top four QBs in the draft not named Burrows, if they choose to do so. Otherwise they can nab a prospect on Day 2.

    So Lock's a lock...

    Flacco... hmmmm.... won a SB  being asked by RayRay and his D to do little but hand the ball off and not fuck up.

    Guy named Bill B might be interested in that kind of capability in the short-term ... even might see him as Testaverde V2.0.

    Still like Hurts and my Raven-copy hypothesis better, but a leashed Flacco just means the QB is not part of the running attack. Then can go WildDawg with the rookie and work him gradually to be the full-time starter.

    Or....are they going to be Tanking for Trevor?

    I don't really think so....their defense should be too good for that. 

    But they have lost Rivers, and are losing Gordon.    They seem light on offensive skill players.

    Now..they could be in the Tank for Trevor mode.
