And when we cut Eiflen into oblivion we’ll have even more

This

@TheCasillasnvm. You’re right. He’s an RFA. either way, my stance on a day 1 vet backup remains lol

Yes he is. He re-signed last month. Why else would this fluff article of him talking about Frank Reich exist? https://amp.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article272220658.html

I don’t see it as a day 1 of tampering priority given the makeup of our staff. We’ll end up getting someone like Brissett.

PJ Walker is under contract as is Matt Corral. Obviously neither one of them will be THE backups come August, but there is 0 reason to rush out day 1 trying to find a “vet backup” when the makeup of your coaching staff is littered with former QBs and the position coach literally just finished playing as a journeyman vet backup. If your backup plays on Sundays, you are already screwed.

You don’t sign a vet backup to play on Sundays. we have a backup if the need arises, two of them actually. We don’t need to rush out and sign one day 1 of tampering.

Josh Mccown is pretty much a vet backup

Do we know how many years?

I doubt it. He's done next to nothing since his rookie year (albeit he's been out of position) and this coaching staff doesn't owe him anything. They don't need to run anything by him.

not a fan?

isn't hayden hurst also going to be a FA?

water is wet

who even is this??

by comparison to another RB that we are very familiar with and who received a contract extension the same year that Ekeler did - Ekeler is a bargain

There's two years of him showing up elite level processing. All he needs to do is come out throw dots (which he will).

By that logic, why would the Texans want Anthony Richardson?

By just pulling out those stats you could say the same about Haskins(rip) or Fields - neither of which are/were/will be a better passer than Prescott

Agree, but I think it’s Young

Sidenote: the trade was never going to happen without Moore being included. The Bears pushed for this.

Exactly. The trade was literally only going to be done by us and to include Moore

Yeah we should have kept him and drafted an inferior talent at 9. Or traded up to 3 while giving up similar draft capital and also still drafting some inferior because the colts moved to 1 in both scenarios it makes 0 sense to settle on an inferior quarterback when you are trying to find the most coveted position in sports. It’s time to get over moore being gone. Name cam’s receivers in 2015 and 2017.

There'd be no reason for them to but it seems to be thrown around on here as an option for some reason.

If we can work out a deal to move down with the Cardinals and take Hopkins off their hands for them while also landing Stroud/Young I'd call this a home run.
