Sam Howell traded to Seattle

Not clear cut for me at all.  He had an amazing 31 fumbles in 3 seasons.  He leaves to pocket consistently and just isn’t very consistent as a passer.
 

He hasn’t faced any good defenses in college and when he did he lost.

I get it and honestly this class is looking a little overrated to me. Caleb should have a nice foundation in Chicago with Moore, Swift, Kmet, Allen and whatever they do at pick 9. It looks like Daniels will be heading to Washington without as much help.

I completely agree the team they go to matters more than anything.  Hard to say between Chicago and Washington.  Commanders have spent a lot of money in FA and Chicago has a decent amount of skill players.  I would put New England as the worst situation right now.

We weren’t in the right situation to do it but agree.  Howell is really good.  On a good team who knows

yeah I like the fact that he is young & cheap & healthy & is at that stage of his carrer where he could very well transition into a solid starter one day &  all that combined  sounds like a great plan B at Qb

Lol this is crazy deal for Seattle. Cost of howell vs Bryce, ouch.

Brutal. Especially if you include the CMC/Burns trades and the new guard/wr additions. Willing to gut your good defense just to see if this little guy can be a decent game manager lol. Hopefully if he's not they'll bench his ass and throw Dalton out there so we can watch actual competitive NFL football

Late to see this news but wouldnt have minded howell trade at all.  They basically got a qb who was leading the nfl in yards halfway through last year for almost nothing. I believe he starts for seattle at some pointhis year. 

Wouldn't surprise me if Howell and Fields both don't end up starting this year.

They could’ve easily sold a trade for Fields with his ability to run. Bring him in on short yardage plays. We don’t have that with Young or Dalton and it’s a valuable thing. 

They're terrified to have even a hint of competition. Which is wild. Bryce went to Alabama. Trust and believe that Nick Saban was signing the best QBs he could get to put pen to paper every single year. If you're starting somewhere like Alabama or Georgia or OSU, etc. you came out of a pressure cooker. Oh, I'm a 4* or 5* recruit. STFU, practically everybody here is. You wouldn't be here if you weren't. Be the best or ride the pine.

We're treating this guy with kid gloves when you can get your bottom dollar he never was at Alabama.

    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality. 
    • I think the D performed well over the season considering it was put together with Scotch tape.
