Either that or we go LT at 6 and trade for Jimmy G or Mayfield. I don’t care what “reports” say about our and Bakers mutual interest. Nobody tells the truth this time of year. 

Oh, I think the mutual disinterest is probably legitimate.

The question for me is whether Matt Rhule changes his mind if there aren't any other options.

Perhaps to Houston as part of a deal for Tunsil??

Spotrac has him with a 35 million dollar cap hit next year. Even if we were to be willing not having our 2nd and 3rd this year makes that difficult unless we are going to offer a player in return.

Also he doesn’t have a no trade clause so it might not even matter if he wants to be here or not

I would cream my damn britches if we could somehow swing a trade for this dude. He’s incredible. 

His extension has hit a halt and I just don't think it's out of the picture for Baltimore.  I know he's their dude and former MVP, but is he worth the extension they'd be willing to give?

If everyone is on the table for a given price and we are really in on every deal, I'm calling them to see what their price is.  We have the moolah now to give any QB a huge freaking contract and pieces I can frankly see Baltimore coveting on our defense.

Well if we did get it we would obviously do a new contract to lower that by quite a bit

The only thing that makes sense in my mind is a Darnold for Jimmy G swap. Obviously we would have to add a young player or a pick but really nothing else seems realistic.

I had no idea they can cut Jimmy G and save like $25M. Only $1.4M bonus guaranteed. Not sure what leverage we'd have.

Trading for Sam Darnold in the first place wasn’t a horrible idea. Picking up his option was so f*cking stupid.

No one wants him. He costs $19m and he sucks. It’s a Brock Osweiler type trade. The Panthers are trading away an asset for cap space. Then whoever receives Darnold would cut him most likely.

Trading for a guy who really doesn't want to play for you is a pretty dicey proposition.

I don't really think Mayfield would have a problem sitting out.

Kinda wonder if they’ve decided to go with Cam this season.

Cam and Willis is the dream scenario if they plan on drafting a QB. I really hope we draft a LT though because we currently don’t have a legit LT on the roster.
