Should We Trade Matt Moore to the Jaguars?

Mort reported that JAX is stuck with Garrard as the starter and backup Luke McCown went down for the season with torn ACL in the game yesterday. After Garrard's performance yesterday they've gotta be feeling a little antsy. I like Garrard but idk what's wrong with him this year.

That being said, Mort is saying that JAX is looking for a a QB to bring in. I know trades in the NFL are rare, and even more rare for us, but with how MM sounded after the job was given to Clausen, it may be best to let him move on. I'm not sure what we could get for him but just an idea.

Then again, they could just sign back Leftwich and make it super awkward down there lol.

I thought Leftwich is back with Pittsburgh.

But I doubt this happens, not only because trades are rare but that wouldn't be smart on our part. It would still be valuable to have Moore as our #2.

Yeah didn't see he just re-signed with them today, I just knew he had been released recently.

Yeah I don't think it's very likely at all, but wondered if anyone else thought about it.

Then we'd have to scramble for a backup quarterback. I don't think we'll get a lot for Moore even if a team wanted to overlook his two games this year. Crazier things have happened, though.

I'm not trying to go Madden or anything, like I said, just wondered if anyone else had gave it any thought. But you're right. I think Troy Smith has a small fan club on this board though, and I wouldn't mind picking him up.

Again, I don't see it happening, but I already suggested before the season started that everything that has happened to this point regarding the QB situation tells me that Moore never going to be 'the guy.' Regardless of how he performed this year, I think he would've gotten franchised if he 'over-performed' and we then would've traded him for whatever value we could get.

We signed him to a 1-year tender as insurance in case nothing else panned out. If they thought he was the future they would've made sure he was signed to a longer-term deal while it could still be agreed to on the cheap. No doubt whatever value he had has plummeted, but I think we could still get a low round pick for him, and may as well b/c we're not keeping him around after this year, and I think that was part of the plan all along.

      It's also worth noting that Cam himself said that he felt safer when running vs. sitting in the pocket because he could see the contact coming and could better prepare for it. A QB running the ball doesn't have to be a sledgehammer. He just has to be effective.

      That Falcons game is about as good as it gets. Especially on the road. I know the Falcons defense was bad but he was cooking with Coker, an undrafted rookie get the bulk of the receptions. If your QB has 5 TDs and 0 turnovers he is playing like a top QB, yardage be damned. The big question for me is how consistently can be play the whole season?  I don’t expect a game like that every week, but I also don’t want to see any performances like the pre benching or that Cowboys game (which was bad post benching). Bryce’s best shot at being the guy is becoming a mini-Burrow who is about as consistent as you can get at the QB position.  The good news is this QB class should be a fun one. So hopefully Bryce becomes the guy, if not it’s a nice class to let DC pick his QB and they should come into a great situation with a good OL, RB, young talented WRs etc…

      Bryce Young is far less risky with his body when he runs than Richardson and doesn’t take many unnecessary big hits. Was much more worried about injury when he had that abysmal OL his rookie season than I ever would be when he runs/scrambles. 500/10 seems like a fairly reasonable prediction considering he had 250/6 in 12 starts last season. Of course literally anybody CAN get hurt, it’s just that we were assured by many huddlers that it was a sure thing with Bryce Young that he wouldn’t make it to this point in his career without significant injuries.
