How much you willing to trade for a QB

Picking #8 and who knows who will be available. Should they have a plan B to either trade up or a trade for a established QB if no one is avaiable. What do you think would be the best option if they really want a QB this year.

Trading for an established QB makes no sense for us. None could be true long term options (unless a Watson type was available, but he’s not...) and with Teddy already eating cap the next 2 years it just wouldn’t work. Needs to be a rookie QB.

You are asking a very vague question. What QB are we trading for, either in the NFL or in the draft? What do you mean by "decent" QB? Teddy is a "decent" QB. Why would I make a lateral move?

I wouldn’t be even remotely upset trading away a future 1st to get our guy (IN THE DRAFT) if we get a franchise QB. I don’t expect to be picking in the top 10 next season and that is the one position you never regret trading for if you get your guy. You cannot win consistently in today’s NFL without a franchise QB. No way we trade for another vet QB. We cannot afford the 20 million owed to Teddy along with someone else

To be honest trading for a rookie is a bad investment. You don’t know what you are getting in return . I’d trade a 4th or 5th for Carson wentz 

 

edit I take that back wentz salary is insane they will have to cut him 

The rumor mill says that the impending Wentz trade likely involves restructuring his contract.

We will draft a QB this year. With the rookie salary cap it makes little sense not to. We will also bring in a vet to compete as backup as well. 

I don't want us to trade up at all given there is no real consensus best guy especially after Lawrence got exposed.  Seems we can find our franchise guy at 8. 

All that angst from the tankers and we still got a top 10 pick. Hundreds of post whining and bitching and we are still likely to get the third or fourth ranked QB which is not very different if we stayed at 3 given that there isn't consensus about we is the best despite all the Lawrence fans. Plus both Jacksonville and the Jets will pick a QB.

Totally, the real question is how our new scouting crew will view Zach Wilson, Trey Lance & Mac Jones.  One of those three is our new QB.

I would have no qualms with trading for Stafford if he hits the market. I don’t think he would command a first but probably a 2nd and 3rd. Then again Sam Bradford garnered a 1st so idk.

I can see a world where Elway trades for Stafford and offers up Drew Lock.

Given the salary cap contraction I expect a bunch of teams to be dumping high price vets.

      Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. (He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.

      Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.

      I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
