Carr.

I was dead set against another reclamation project but I don’t trust any of these QBs enough to bet the farm on. 

This team is ready for a QB and Carr isn’t a reclamation project.  He isn’t chopped liver as they say, Panthers would probably be favored to win the division with him, I would think. 

For that matter if a QB they love fell to 9 you they still take him if they felt that strongly. I wouldn’t expect that to happen but if so, it’s a problem that can be lived with better than no QBs. And we need a room with at least one to train. Two being groomed is better but if Carr is the guy they will need an experienced backup.

Mahomes was a QB traded up for… Just saying..

Yes he was. But not a trade into the top 5.  What the Chiefs gave up for that pick was really not that much. They had the 27th pick that year. They traded that with a 3rd rounder and their 2018 first round pick to move up.

 

That’s reasonable. Compare that to what other teams have traded to move up into the top 5 for a QB.

Just saying that’s a lot of criteria to make a point.. When in reality depending on the situation trading up has worked for teams and is a necessity when you are convinced that player is a difference maker..

Completely agree.  My point was to say trading into the top 5 for a QB isn’t the sure fire way to win a Super Bowl the way some seem to feel it is. Plenty of teams have found success throughout the draft and through free agency and trades. 
 

 Another note to consider is the influences on Fitterer and Reich. Seattle was able to get to three Super Bowls and win one in the last 20 years with a 6th round and 3rd round QB.  Philadelphia won a Super Bowl with a 3rd round QB and just got to another Super Bowl with a 2nd round QB. 
 

Of course that doesn’t mean that is the only option. But I don’t think Fitterer and Reich will be locked in on only looking at QBs in the top 5 of the draft.

Why is nobody suggesting Aaron Rodgers?

 

Im like the only person who has discussed the idea. A 2 year run with Rodgers would be worth it. Would be like the Brady/Bucs run. We have enough pieces to win the NFC with Rodgers. Maybe get him a TE in FA and we are set.

Because Rodgers may wind up with the Jets.

My thought is to trade up for the #1 draft choice, assuming the Bears are gullible.  ( I do not recommend a Mike Ditka style, trade away the future.  ). Leave that for the Saints.

my 2nd choice is to bring in Carr if available.  (There are several teams trying to bring in Carr.)

3rd Choice is to go with the draft,  

Jackson has too much baggage.

Jamis Winston would be ok,, only if he came with tranquilizers to keep him from panicking and throwing to the other team.

      Falcons disciplined for tampering

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Without looking it up because I'm lazy, so maybe I'm wrong... if I remember it was talking to both Brady and Sean Payton who were under contracts at the time, multiple times and possibly in multiple off-seasons (less certain on that last part if I'm being honest). Huge difference between that and improper communication during an active free agent time period and with a free agent.   Again, not looking it up, but think all this was, was the Falcons doctors (and others) talking to Kirk during that 2 day period, which isn't allowed. I hate the Falcons as much as the next guy, but let's also still look at things objectively and know that those two things are far from equal.

      Wasn't talking about Medicare exactly.  Medicare advantage is different.  The one my mom uses is thru blue cross and blue shield.   Medicare Advantage (Part C) | Blue Cross Blue Shield (bcbs.com) My mom has been using it for about six months now.  Before she was using a medigap program run by United Health Care and it paid almost everything, but was costing her 400 a month.  The Medicare advantage plan doesn't cost anything (the premiums are actually paid by Medicare).  Now she does have copayments, some of them for for medicine, but so far, they aren't bad.  Hers also covers dental, which medicare normally doesn't cover.   I will state though that my Mom has Medicare part b (she pays for it, but gets reimbursed by the employer my stepdad retired from).
