I personally never considered him that.   In how I define things I’d put him in whatever tier Stafford climbed into.  

Id say Stafford is elite. Understand being different/picky about "elite" label. He was just the last one I thought of being traded, hell feels like he wore a leather helmet. Orton was a decent QB, who did get to SB was included in that trade.  miss the early memes for those times

I thought this meme was Rex Grossman.

I don't care who you are you don't average 4300 passing yards and 27tds a season without being elite... Staffords the only reason they didn't become the only team with multiple 0-16 seasons. He's led some crazy come backs with absolutely no defense.

I mean Joe Montana is arguably the GOAT.  He got traded.  Moon got traded.   They both went on to remain Pro Bowlers with their new teams.   Granted they were clearly on the backend.   But talk about big time.

Favre and Hasselbeck got traded and went on to lead their teams into Super Bowls.  They never really got going yet with their original teams. 

I do agree with the notion there is no Watson comparable out there.   No one traded at this early moment with a career ahead of him.....when the entire league fully knows what he is and how great he is.   All examples of that tier QB happened earlier or later in a career.

In all seriousness I would love getting Watson at a price that wouldn't morgage the future.

I have noticed the "All in for Watson crowd" Happens to be a lot of the same people that complained for years about Cam not having an oline or weapons or CBs who could hold a lead.... The same will happen to Watson if you pony that much up..

I had another thought to share, so I returned. 

Let's say Watson costs 3 first rounders.  Is that worth it?

If you think he is the QB for the next decade, yes.   Look at the Jets--lotta first round busts that take 3 years to bust.  Watson is proven---and if he pans out, which I think he would, you can make moves in rounds 2-7 to add a player or 2.  I am not a fan of trading #1s, but this is an opportunity you rarely get---no rebuild--we would enter WIN NOW mode and still have youth.  I am changing my mind.

      49ers void Brandon Aiyuks 2026 guaranteed money , set to release him.

      The problem with all those scenarios is typically that you don't find out the player is a problem child until too late. The team trading him to you has zero reason to be honest about that. Even his teammates are likely to be fairly tight lipped unless it is off the record or it has now become widely known how bad the player's attitude/issues are. Think about Brown specifically. He wasn't widely/publicly known as a nutbag until late in his career, although ample evidence existed prior to that point.  It makes sense. Like a teammate or not, it's not wise to be out there blabbering about locker room issues in front of the public. Not a way to endear yourself to current or future teammates.

      Only team with a winning record…

      I don’t remember what I said this year. I had us winning 6 last year. I was optimistic a little.  I probably said 6 or 7. Wasn’t feeling optimistic so much this year.

      I mean if you look at Bryce’s stats before last week, he was ranked damn near the bottom of the league in every category so you can’t fault people for thinking anything positive is bogus. I’ve heard several analyst say they don’t know how to rank the panthers because we are a confusing team. One week we look like complete dog poo the next we win 30-0. Sure we beat a horrible jets team, but what was it, 13-6 or something like that? Beat the pack, but how good are they? They lost to us and the Browns and tied with Dallas, are they frauds? Would we have beat the bills with Bryce, I doubt it. Barely beat a 3-5 falcons team in OT and those seem to be Bryce’s best games. To me, the jury is still out and I’m optimistic, we beat SF and Bryce plays will il start to really believe.
