Seems like one guy "reports" or floats something into the ether and then 3 to 4 more people regurgitate it on Twitter and voila!  It becomes gospel.  

I mean, it could turn out to be true, but two months ago, we were his preferred destination.  I think there's a lot of posturing and leveraging going on and we're in it until we aren't...  and if we aren't, I'll still be excited to take a young QB with our top pick and move on from Teddy, period.

I mean, isn’t that how every report comes out anyways true or not.

 

And just because you don’t like the results or don’t want it to happen don’t dismiss it. 
 

these are a lot more credible sources by the way vs the nflrumurs etc you seeing floating stuff around

It's possible, but Lombardi's not the greatest source. He's probably about on the level of Jason LaCanfora as far as reliability, i.e. very hit or miss.

I think it was sometime back in the mid 2000s, Lombardi spent half a season continuously saying that John Fox was gonna be fired. When the season ended, he wasn't even on the hot seat.

People knock the Panthers about being in a position to give Houston a chance to get a QB but San Fran is in better position?

There is a lot chatter going on whether it’s true chatter remains to be seen.

To add Ben Albright says if anything were to happen with Denver it would probably be Sam Darnold and he’s very in the know with Denver.

There is a lot of bluffing going on around.

Yeah I kinda wonder if someone out of Houston is throwing this stuff out but SF can trade them Garapolo. I personally don’t think he is much better than Teddy and is always hurt but they have old Patriots people in the front office

Honestly, the leak is possibly coming out of houston to drum up interest... In all honesty as Peter King said we are the only team that has publicy came out and said we are going after Watson. So ... why not put us in a self inflicted bidding war?  

Broncos are perfect example, bc they pick right behind us.. and have mentioned bringing in competition

San Fransisco is your other conference competitor in this trade. It is evident that HOU wont want to trade within the conference. 

At the end of the day... SF and DEN most likely cant match what Tepper will put on the table.

Albright actually came back later this even and shot the Denver and Darnold thing down

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
