they're clearing the deck for salary because the draft interest in a QB is smoke and with a LT that can play at 6, our team looks competitive on paper minus a QB that we trade to get. We want someone to leapfrog us for Willis so we can get our pick of tackles at 6. Mayfield? 

Mayfield if the Browns cut him and he'll do a prove it deal for like $5M. I'd take Minshew over Mayfield personally

I was with you until you said Mayfield.

Murray? Pass. That dude doesn't want to play football and gets rattled too easily. 

This is what it’s gonna be. If there is a deal it’s going to be for Kyler Murray. Multiple 1s. We sign Dwayne Brown. Mayfield to the Cardinals.

He wants to play….he’s just smart and wants to get paid. He’s gaming the system understanding that if he forces a trade he gets paid. It’s smart.

Latest whispers say the Panthers are willing to trade Darnold plus a young player just for a team to take his contract.

Did we ever get an explanation on picking up the guys 5th year option?  Who was managing this team then, Elmer Fudd?  It's like they don't actually think about what they did.

That would be a huge mistake.  If he was going to be franchise defining qb the Cardinals would not trade him for anything.  He's not Mahomes lite, he's a Mahomes wannabe.

How do you reconcile Pickett having such superior stats against basically the same competition last year?

Much better supporting cast and he's as old as most second year NFL players. He's a literal man playing against boys.

Swap Pickett and Howell and UNC probably wins 3 games and Pickett is a priority UDFA. Real talk. Pickett is the beneficiary of a better than average veteran team and an addition year of eligibility due to COVID.

      The issue is the position Bryce plays. Finding a good/great quarterback isn't easy. Plus, it sometimes takes years for these guys to actually become good/great. What you have to look for is progress instead of regression. Bryce has shown that. Can he put it all together? We don't know yet. But that's why you place a smaller bet with the 5th year option, and wait to see. You could be wrong and lose your 30 mil bet, but you didn't hitch your wagon long-term and lose much more.

      Absolutely not. That’s too much for replacement level player. Bryce may be that. Or he may turn into something more. If you can’t see the flashes, you’re willfully blind. There’s more bad than good right now, but there’s less bad than there was earlier in his career. He’s only 24 and he’s showing signs of improvement. He may never become consistent enough to justify a long term contract, but he’s shown enough to roll the dice on what effectively will turn into a 2 year, $30MM contract for the next two years to see if he can earn something longer.    Sure, in his one season starting, Howell managed to throw for 3,946 yards and toss 21 TDs, but it took throwing the ball an astounding 612 times. He also threw 21 INTs (for a particularly egregious 3.4 INT%). For all the talk of him being a deep ball thrower, he still only averaged 6.4 YPA, with an average air yards of 5.6 yards per attempt. And for all the excuses of Washington’s line giving him no protection (65 sacks taken that year), he was only pressured on 22.7% of his dropbacks, which is a few percentage points lower than what Bryce has had to deal with each year (24.2, 26.7, and 24.0%).    These are all numbers that are at best roughly equivalent to Bryce’s production the past two years. It’s wild to me people can claim so confidently that he’s a better QB.
