The response to the guy who said noone goes 30/20 in college made me lol a little.

It's certainly a different thing to have a QB here that draws league wide attention...though I suppose it will completely ruin our ability to scream "under the radar" on the Huddle non-stop.

Rodgers, Brees, and Brady seem to clearly be the cream of the crop. However, is Peyton Manning healthy? If so, he's right there too. Eli has two rings now and that can't be denied. He won last season with the worst rushing attack in the NFL. That's legit.

Right now, I have a really tough time arguing Cam as top 5 - right now. Yes, he had a tremendous rookie season, but to be top 5 you need to have the stats and the wins, IMO.

I think Cam Newton is a top 10 NFL QB right now though. If I was an NFL GM and we were rebuilding the league and every player was put in a huge draft, the only guy I'd even consider taking over Newton, age being considered, is Aaron Rodgers. That's it.

I rank Cam as one of the hardest players to "stop" in the NFL, but not in the top 3 of QB's.

History has proven that you have to be able to pick apart teams from the pocket to win consistently win in the NFL. Cam can do that, but not as well as Rodgers, Brady, Manning, Rivers, etc......yet.

When he masters the throwing side of things, then he really will be unstopable.

The thing is that I totally would would put Cam in my top 3, just because of the things he can do that pretty much nobody else can.

Rodgers

Brees

Newton

Brady.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
