Mingo should definitely be behind AT(if he is still here), Coker and XL. He has basically shown he isn't going to develop. Let Coker and XL actually get meaningful reps as they likely have some sort of future here.

Dalton or Flacco for a decent deal should be the move. Russell Wilson will not be available and would be wildly expensive. The rest of those options are not better IMO(Darnold, Winston, etc). Most of that list is #3 QB's. Don't hyperfocus on the future at QB in a weak QB period. Get short term stability and then build an NFL roster over the next few years. We should have multiple top 10 draft picks in the next 4-5 seasons, so there will be ample opportunities to swing at a QB again. If not and we suddenly are able to get good, well then we become an attractive FA option for a QB.

Gotta flip those around for accuracy.

I mean.....I wasn't happy with the draft he already had. It was not good at all, IMO. Looked a LOT like a classic Fitterer draft.

You know who yes men get a lot of love from?

I have no idea where you are getting these numbers but they are not accurate.

Yeah, it's a little disappointing but it just is what it is. That really wasn't an option. He went full locker room cancer mode and we really don't need that at the moment. Especially with some potentially impressionable young WR's here.

It is unlikely to be big moves but a LOT of roster churn, I suspect. But, big moves are possible because we have a lot of guys that can be cut, as well. It will he interesting to see if they panic and start trying to save their skins(Canales/Morgan) or they remain patient and build slowly.

I think the problem here is that we aren't going to have the luxury of standing pat in free agency to generate a potential Day 2 or Day 3 pick. We have far too many holes in the roster to just sit on our hands. The Ravens are a great example of having the luxury to met guys walk because ywar in and year out they are not only stacked with talent but manage to identify even more in the draft. We should get much better at compensatory picks and that system but we have to really build this roster up first.

It is what it is. We probably came to the market late(likely after this week's game), asked more than reasonable market value or just generally didn't read the room as quickly as we should have. It's partly a franchise blunder and partly just the market dynamics. Of all the things to fret over with this franchise, this really isn't one of them, IMO.

Not much more, most likely.

Like I said, I don't think he was as valuable as people think. If he wasn't he wouldn't have been traded to us for a relatively low price. He's a talented and high maintenance player that probably creates more BS than he solves in most cases.

He might be trending Jamarcus Russell if he thinks he is a great passer. Yeah, he needs to be on the bench for a WHILE.

FTFY

Basically Robby Anderson+ trade. Johnson is a better player but similar circumstances were incoming, IMO. No real reason for us to fret about it. It was either this or keep him around to create more and more drama until he got released. That's not a better alternative.

Yeah, I changed from "minimum 4th" to "who gives a fug" after Sunday's game. I have no issue with this at all. He made it very, very obvious he didn't want to be here so he needed to go.

It just is what it is. He was not re-signing here, he was trending towards locker room cancer and the teams that needed WR help had largely filled those needs. I am not mad about it at all. This is just what happens when you are in chaos as a team and don't have much in the way of assets to move.

A pick is a pick. This is the smart move. He isn't an elite player, he went after multiple teams had filled their need and he wasn't happy to be here. There wasn't much to negotiate about.

Predictable. You can't keep letting him go out there and fail. Not good for him or the team. Let him sit and develop for at least two seasons. He is way more raw that Jordan Love was.

Not really. I doubt there were many offers, I doubt there were any higher and he wasn't going to stay here. It just is what it is. He really didn't cost us much anyway so what does it truly matter?

I don't think he was worth what people think here.

Yeah and he still misses reads. He's broken. Sad after just one season but it is what it is. He would be best suited by a continued backup role and substantially less pressure on him. Hence why trading him would be good. Especially to a team with an established QB with zero starting QB controversy. Just reset and get your head right.

I question how much it is us intentionally leaking or if we are just a leaky organization. That seems to have been the case the entire Tepper tenure. I do believe we are unhappy with him and I also believe he is unhappy with us.

You say that but his injury history is pretty bad and he is often the biggest reason for the Colts losses. You might get a couple of wow plays a game but it's going to be filled with way more facepalming. If there is a QB I would want off of the Colts at the moment it's probably Flacco. At least you would have a guy that has the ability to play NFL QB. Given me a veteran on their last legs over a bust like Bryce or a likely bust in AR.

TBH, he has mainly shown that he needs to be sitting behind Flacco. He is probably at least two full seasons from being up to NFL starter level. He was the biggest QB project drafted in recent memory. Unbelievable physical skills but it really ends there.
