Cutler should be a legit thought...

[DelhommesTheMan]

Things apparently havent gotten any better between McDaniels and CUtler, and some sources are saying that the situation may have gotten worse. Yes the Broncos are saying that they are not looking to trade Cutler, but honeslty how many times have we heard things like that only to have the opposite done.

Fox isnt the guy who wants to spend time developing a rookie QB, that we all know after all these years. Fox also knows that Jake has max. 2 years left with this team. This is going to be Jakes 7th year with the team, how many teams have had that much stability at the QB position? Pats, Colts, Eagles, Seahawks, and G-Men, Steelers, Chargers approaching that point. What do all these teams have in common? They are all among the best teams in the league every year. The Panthers included. We have been in the playoff hunt up until week 17 EVERY year since Fox has been here..

Anyway, im not going too turn this into a trade Peppers for Cutler thread, because i dont care if Peppers is included in the trade or not. I hope Hurney and Fox would do what it takes to atleast explore the possibility of getting Cutler, I would even trade next years first and this years 2nd. Not that Jake isnt fully capable, but he's nto a 25 year old rocket armed stud, he's getting up there in football years. Sometimes you have to take a chance to get the franchise to the next level. The Giants gave up the farm for Eli, and look how far it's gotten them.

I like Eli a whole bunch but I don't agree that that trade is the thing has gotten them that far. I actually think that SD made out better on the trade than NY did. I can't remember the other player who they got (4th rounder), but besides Rivers, I know one of them was Merriman.

I think they got Turner that year as well.

[Fireball77]

Oh geeze..if they got Turner also in that deal it makes it even more lopsided.

[Kurb]

Bah, now I gotta go look .

Curse you woman!

[Fireball77]

[Panthro]

Rivers>Eli is enough to make that a lopsided trade

[Kurb]

Chargers Drafted: 2nd: Igor Olshansky, 3rd Nate Kaeding, Nick Hardwik, 4th Shaun Philips and Merriman in 2005

[Kurb]

Kading and Merriman where the picks from the Giants I think.

Not bad at all.

[Kurb]

As a side note, we swapped picks with Seattle in the second round, for their 4th round pick.

They got Lofa Tatupu, we got Eric Shelton and Stephan Lefors.

[Fireball77]

Yowsah...SD did indeed make out big. So did Seattle.

Aren't all those players still with SD except maybe Olshansky?

[DelhommesTheMan]

Cutler > any Qb we could get in next years 1st round..

And River is not better than Eli..Sorry

Like I said they aren't all because of the trade, but ya all of them are still with SD, IGOR left for dallas this year.

[Fireball77]

Yeah you made that clear...I wasn't trying to imply you were saying they were all a part of the trade. I just meant that having a good pass rusher, a starting QB, and a kicker makes that trade lopsided.
