Yep. It does feel nice to actually have a staff that looks worthy of trusting to make these evaluations though. If Levis turns out to be their guy I'll just hope that they're right and I'm wrong and root like hell for the guy.

Appropriate post in a thread where the title starts off "I made a stupid mistake..." LOL!

Here we are ready to take on the rest of the league following this trade.

I think the Seahawks might be a sleeper destination for Rogers. Pete Carroll can't have many years left in the tank. Geno looked MVP caliber in the first half of the year but regressed a good way back toward looking like a journeyman as the season wore on. They still haven't resigned Geno or tagged him or anything, so what is their move at QB? At his age, I have a hard time seeing Carroll wanting to look to the draft for his next QB. They could still end up tagging Geno but I wouldn't be shocked if they came out of the blue and landed one of these vets like Rogers or Carr.

If we want to run a two high shell, we probably either need to move Chinn to LB or trade him.

Reich called his own plays with the Colts.

Honestly, I'm very, very pleased with this coaching staff. Excited to see what they do at QB.

No he didn't. I went to all but two Broncos home games that year because the company I worked for had a suite and I was the only CO based employee so I got the tickets by default unless some big wig was in town on vacation and wanted them. The Golden Calf of Bristol looked like trash running the base offense. He'd work his magic in the two minute drill. You just can't get a coach to build an offense where every play basically amounts to "scramble drill on three, break".

Exactly. When an organization is willing to move on from a franchise caliber QB, red flags need to be flying. More often than not, in hindsight it was obvious why.

This is basically Baltimore signaling that they think two 1sts is the absolute ceiling for what they could get for Lamar in a trade offer.

Honestly, no. It would still mean a mega contract and two 1st round picks for a player that has been struggling with injuries.

We're sitting at #9 in the draft. There's a really good chance the QB prospects we really want aren't gonna be there. Just reality.

My first NFL jersey was a Browns Bernie Kosar jersey when I was probably a similar age. I just wanted an NFL jersey. The Panthers didn't even exist yet. Bernie Kosar's jersey was probably on the clearance rack at Belk's.

If the Bears decide to take a QB at #1 and move on from Fields and we can get him for #9 overall and we like Fields more than the QBs we anticipate will be available at #9 then go for it. That's whole lot of "ifs" so it's highly unlikely to happen.

Drake Maye petitions the NFL and somehow gains the ability to be allowed into the supplemental draft. Finally acknowledging fuging us over in SB50 the NFL grants us an extra 1st round pick in '24 that we use to select Drake Maye in the 2023 supplemental draft. I mean, you did say IDEAL. LOL!!!

Winning record overall, but I'm pretty sure .500 after we acquired Jake. He owned us early on but let's be real, we sucked in those years. Everyone owned us.

The Falcons had one year where they won double digit games with Vick. They made the playoffs in two of his six seasons. Y'all really having nightmares about THAT?

If Lamar pulls off a deal like that with no agent every NFL agent gonna be like

I honestly wouldn't mind one of our divisional rivals trading a boatload of assets and then giving a massive contract to a QB who has struggled with injuries recently.

I honestly think that's most likely. The entire sports media thinks they should build around Fields. Most of their fanbase thinks they should build around Fields. If you move Fields and take another QB, you better be right because holy poo... if you draft a bust and Fields flourishes elsewhere you're gonna be the biggest jackass in sports.

I hope not.

You know a guy is a freak when he has that severe of an injury and STILL goes in the 1st round.

Sure they will. If you're willing to make an idiotically high offer. That's pretty much what they're signalling with that. Don't even call us if you're an NFC team and you're not gonna blow us away with your offer.

I'm not opposed to trading up for a QB, I'm just not completely sold on it for Young or Stroud. If our staff is then go for it. It's their jobs on the line not mine.
