Broncos gonna get an average QB who relies on a strong run game and will be demanding a contract bigger than Osweiler got after this season for their first and likely a very good player. Would help them this year but put them in an even deeper whole going forward.

Considering the source it's almost definitely made up, but it would be awesome if there was a blockbuster trade like this. It also seems pretty reasonable from all 3 teams perspectives assuming the unidentified player is a bottom of the roster guy.

I'm not so sure that looks like the most reliable site for sports news.

Word on this anywhere else?

It's been on Reddit and the Bills board for the past 24 hours or so.  Nothing has been announced "official" or pending though.

I think TT can be a top 10 QB, but for whatever reason the Bills aren't sold on him. If I was any QB needy team I'd be putting together a trade offer for him. I think the Broncos are winning out in this scenario.

Maybe the Bills liked him but just saw an opportunity to get a guy they like better in Wentz.

IMO Wentz has the franchise "ceiling" a team like Buffalo desperately needs, Tyrod can run a system like Denver's which they need, and the Browns get to build from the ground up with a brand new front office.

Time will tell but this looks good for all parties, even though it looks like Denver is banking on its roster not having taken a major hit with their losses.

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
