Should We Trade Matt Moore to the Jaguars?

[FuzzyPanther]

Also known by everyone in the NFL: D. Garrard is a proven QB in the NFL. DG is Middle line starter. (not near the top guys and well above the bottom guys). Won't dominate the game, and won't lose the game by himself. JAX isn't about to sell him off for MM. Offer a prospect (Jimmy Clausen), and they might be ready to talk to you.

Moore is still unproven.

I've always thought that Garrard would be the perfect Panther QB. Takes care of the ball, can make you a play from time to time in crucial scenarios, but isn't a prima-donna and can live with a team that runs the ball primarily.

He's fairly proven at this point.....I hate to say

Moore has zero trade value.

To be clear, I wasn't suggesting we trade for Garrard. Although I like Garrard, IDK what's going on with him, and it seems Del Rio hasn't really been sold on him over the last year or so... I was saying we should trade MM there for whatever we can get, most likely a low-round pick.

And the reason I brought it up was b/c the way Mort reported it, it sounds like the Jags feel like they are stuck with Garrard at this point and that he has digressed. I think he had the best game of his career statistically week 1, but he looked horrible yesterday... That's how McCown got hurt. So I figured MM would at least give them a veteran who has some starting experience and was successful at over a short span... A typical stop-gap guy.

Clausen could break his leg on the first snap Sunday. Pike looks YEARS away from being ready for real NFL football.

Solid copy there, I misunderstood you. I'm not sure there's an NFL team that would give us a penny for MM at this point. Unfortunately, our QB talent and depth makes our WR talent and depth look quite good, and that's a sad situation. There are probably ~30 teams with more confidence in their QB staff going into next week.

You're right... Well, looking at Buffalo doesn't make me feel AS bad about our QBs...

Moore might end up in Jacksonville....as a free agent at the end of the season.

[Dpantherman]

Sure, just like how we traded Delhomme in the offseason. That 2011 1st rounder from Cleveland sure will come in handy.

Mike Holmgren isn't stupid

And have Pike be our starter if Pickles goes down? No thank you.

If Tony Pike was starting, what is the worst that could happen? 0-2?

Oh wait...

[Gazi]

Omaha Nighthawks have a good QB available

Way more realistic scenario.

Moore is going to be the backup, and early season results aside, should be since he knows the system and has starting experience.

[Varking]

As a Jaguar fan, he sucks. He had one good year when everyone had to be focused on us lighting you up via the ground. We ran for 375 yards against the Colts with Garrard under center. No team was making him beat them. They would load the box and we could still run through them. Yes, Garrard had a good year that season, but who wouldn't? See similarities with Matt Moore at the end of last season and Garrard back then? They won and put up nice stats because NOBODY was gameplanning for them.

See how Matt Moore is doing now? See Garrard now that he has been the man under helm in Jacksonville? When you are just some backup its one thing, when they gameplan to beat you thats another. Jacksonville has no interest in Matt Moore. They are bringing back Todd Bauman or something similar. He was with the team last year and doesn't have a job right now. He knows our system and will be inexpensive.

I don't see a trade happening with Moore. I wish we would have traded him at the end of last season looking back on things.
