Those Who Like Palmer, He's Demanding Trade

The bengals would want more than a third rounder for this guy I would think. He has had success, unlike guys like Kolb. (Who the eagles want a second round pick for) It will take maybe two picks, a 2nd and a 4th. I wouldn't do it, I don't think he's worth it in the long run.

Swap firsts and give us palmer to do so. Win win.

not sure the Bengals would want to. I saw reason for them to want the first pick when they had Palmer, because getting him an AJ Green would be nice considering who they are likely to let go of this offseason.

now I'm not so certain...

If you really want that scenario, hope Blaine Gabbert tears up the combine and his value skyrockets... then we could do it :P

    • That was always the fear, expectation, concern, etc, I had.  Someone showed a still shot from his pick last game and said it showed that the defender closed 3 yards on that ball in the last portion of its flight. I forget the number. 10 yards I think it said but that sounds extreme.  When guys are open by a step, any slowing down to wait for the ball lets the defender back into the play. That sort of stuff makes the margins so small… these NFL CBs are not slow.   It is a league that highly values foot speed; the 40 times and drill times are scrutinized down to the hundredth of a second when evaluating these players on both sides of the passing game. Receivers and defenders both.   My thing with his arm strength (or anyone’s) was always “why do you want to do that? Plus pay extra picks to put yourself in that situation?”. Asking for trouble.     I wish there was a way to measure velocity on the back half of a throw compared to when it left the hand. Or really get accurate reading of the flight time of a ball from the near hash to the sideline, 10 yards down the field. Because teams could use that info. I have always seen this as being a disadvantage with Bryce but it is beyond my ability to quantify it.   I think it would show what that arm strength is really about, a lot more than just measuring how much air can you put under it so it will fly as far as possible.   
    • Who didn't see that coming.... 
    • Its a detriment if he can't play...as we are seeing.
