Wilson to the Broncos

Good for us I guess in that the NFC is a really weak QB division. Makes us look dumb though cause everyone always talks about Tepper big game hunting for QB. While we bumble around with the likes of Darnold the Broncos for the second time in a decade acquire an all time QB.

Will wording it as if the Panthers did attempt.

I'm sure they did. Wilson wanted to go to a contender. There's nothing further from it than the dumpster fire that is the Panthers. Broncos have a new coaching staff and a good defense. Set up to contend again just like they did with Manning. 

I hate what David Tepper has done to this franchise. I wish him nothing but failure and misery with his soccer team. I am sadly still tied to the Panthers as a lifelong fan but it's getting harder and harder to support a team owned by someone so inept at building a winner.

Drew Lock, Shelby Harris, another player, two first rounders, 2 second rounders, 5th rounder for Wilson and a 4th round pick. 

Tough to imagine us not being able to beat that if they really wanted Russ.

Russ may have said no. Although the NFC South sounds a lot better than the AFC West if I’m a QB.

Its fair to assume that Watson deal would command something similiar. Wonder what our package would look like IF his problems are solved.

I guess they decided to pull the trigger when news of Aaron Rodgers broke.  Feels like that was probably their initial target, but I'm just speculating.

IDK apparently they've been working on this trade for like 6 weeks now.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
