Watson not the only big name vet at QB that we're looking at?

I actually don't hate the Stafford idea as much as I originally thought. 

He's 32. He likely has 3-4 more good years left in him before his game tanks. 

I wouldn't give up anything more than a second for Stafford though. But if they took our second I'd draft a LT in round 1 and go all in a CB number one in free agency. Sign Stafford to a three year extension. Boom. There's your three year window to win. 

If it all blows up you haven't given up any future picks, have a LT for the future and CB is always a need in the NFL.

Hurts is the future there. You can tell toward the end of the season that the Eagles team started to rally behind Hurts. Wentz will be moved this off season. I can’t see why he won’t. Indy will most likely make a trade for Wentz if we or someone else don’t. Indy showed last year that they are ready to win now and will invest high draft pick(s) for a veteran player (Buckner).

You are ignoring the fact that Pederson was fired partly because Wentz wasn't going to play for him.  The Eagles chose Wentz over Pederson.

Their GM, Roseman, picked Wentz and is still with the org.  Wentz or Hurts won't be traded.

The number #1 priority for Tepper and Rhule this offseason is getting a QB. Whether that is trading up for Zach Wilson or trading for Watson/Stafford/Whoever, it will happen. 

Here would be my ideal power ranking of the options

1: Teddy, 8th this year, future first, and CMC for Watson 

2: Trade up to 2nd overall with #8, future first, and second this year. Draft Wilson

3: Trade a second rounder for Stafford

Right around the price range, probably throw in a 2nd and a couple more mid round picks though. The price is insanely high.

I'd be fine with that. The key in that scenario would be hitting on a lot of late round picks + finding a viable LT option for Watson + signing smart FA bargain bins 

 

But you do it for Watson. Are you hearing anything from your friend about our interest level?

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
