XFL will not allow NFL to tamper with there players. Lions already tried once and XFL said no
Which is a good thing for the league. Otherwise they would have players revolving n and out of the league.

By the way, and not for nothing... NFL.com just ranked Wentz 10th among QBs who played all 16 games last year.
Not too bad for a QB who reportedly sucks.
Apparently you just can't wrap your brain around the phrase IMO! Maybe you don't know what that means, if so it means IN MY OPINION!!! I'm just glad it meant so much to you to be able to argue with someone that you waste your time thinking I GAD (give a damn BTW) about what you think. In a way that is respecting your opinion in a backhanded way.
You have an opinion fine. You don't see me trying to change your mind do you?
You said this,
QuoteI’ll try to avoid you. I’m too “crotchety old and grumpy” to waste my time with you.
and when you did I laughed because I knew you couldn't do it
And BTW (by the way) . you didn't think Pagano sucked either

If the Saints or Pats really want Love like some of you think, why would they wait that long to pick their new franchise QB? Wouldn’t they jump in front of our 13th pick? Heck, most of you think we should move up to get him.
Because that makes too much sense

We may not take one at all. We might sign a Free Agent like Rivers or trade for Carr, who knows?

Take Kinlaw at 13.
Trade 34+44 for 16ish, and take Love.30 minutes ago, coltsfanmurf said:I'm still not sold on anyone not named Burrow, Tua or Herbert as a first rounder. I'm sure I will probably be forced to eat those words. I'd rather spend a 3rd or 4th on Gordon IF he lasts that long.
But as far as your deal, that is something that COULD happen. It could be something Miami would be interested in at 18 IF TB doesn't take Love at 14. That would give them an extra pick in the first 44. Interesting!
The "best of" moments from this thread . All good points

Hey..., it’s my opinion and my opinion only. But don’t be surprised if you don’t find much support for your view pretty much anywhere.
Who agrees with you?
Which website agrees with you? If there is one, I’m not aware of it.
Remember... you’re not arguing he’s very good or good or above average. You’re arguing ... he sucks. Now today, in this post, you’ve moved to “over-rated”. And you may get some support for that. But at some point you have to take a stand.... what is he? Does he suck? Is he only good or something else?
Inquiring minds want to know.....
he sucks and is over rated. See he can be both. I don't care who agrees with me. Remember when I said it was my opinion? And I certainly don't care if you agree with me. You use to be a decent poster, now you're just a crotchety old grump that argues with everyone. Stick to your opinion and move along

Does Ballard get a second chance at a QB? I kind of feel like he won't get a second chance, so he needs to be right on whoever he picks.
That's why he should not take one this yr. None of them are worth the risk. FA for a few yrs until he build up draft capital to get the one he wants
Take Kinlaw if available and roll on

Are you familiar with the game of football? Carson Wentz has never sucked. Ever.
He’s had two problems.... one, he’s been hurt a lot. Two, the team around him has gotten worse. But Wentz is a very good quarterback.
I’m sorry you don’t know this.
Ha . Sorry but not buying into it. You like him I don't . Over rated as hell IMO
Remember when you mount your argument I said IMO . You want to disagree fine but don't try manipulate others if they don't agree.

he was beyond horrible

He is a little older and not as big as I would like. Will be 29 when the season starts. We need some younger guys who might be here 3 or 4 years. Anyone got any insight on how good he is? Where does he play on the dline.

Hmm, I wonder if Blockbuster video ever said the same thing about streaming services when Netflix was an inferior competitor?
This is basically the same as the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" argument. No matter how successful a company is, they should ALWAYS be looking for ways to improve, even by monitoring what competitors are doing and adjust accordingly. If you're not looking to improve then you're destined to fail.
as a business owner I get that. That is a technology change. With that comes advancement But many NFL knock offs have come and gone. If they gain ground then yea, take a look but for now worry about other stuff.
I do like that kick off dealeo though

I have zero problem with kids being kids, or smoking weed in college. It will be legal nationally in ten years.
Some people however have an issue with the "decision" aspect of it, given it's illegal, he know's it's illegal, and has a lot to lose by making stupid decisions. That I can understand even though I know it doesn't make him a bad person. Just makes him a person not making a smart decision for his situation.
yea I get it. But I don't think it would defer Ballard either.

There are other quarterbacks who are first round picks that won’t be reaching. Everyone on here wants to cry if we don’t get the top pick let’s not draft one at all. Mahomes was the tenth pick and sat a year.
Mahomes is not in this draft!!!!!!!! Im guessing you are young and lock onto the headlines . DO some research with an unbiased mind .
We need talent . not a reach on a second tier QB just to take a QB because we "need" one

I'm not a rivers fan but with him this yr we win 11 games . I'm good with him in the win now scenario

I knew about the situation, but his article went into a lot of detail. Good stuff.
For those that were harsh about the weed incident, I think knowing he grew up with great parents, and one a cop, should dispel some of the behavior concerns.
I like weed . doesn't make me a bad person.

We still should sign a first round QB if we are sold on one. We already have a developmental guy in Kelly so no reason to get another in a later round. Rivers was bad last year. What makes anyone think he will win here. Reich was fired as his OC.
no we shouldnt . There are no 1st round QB's beside Burrows and MAYBE Tua!!! Stop REACHING!!! good God this team needs talent not a project with the 13th pick .

Yeah, Baker is weird. No idea what to think about him. He had a great rookie year and I really liked him as a prospect too and then this year happened with all the weirdness around him. I think his coaching situation was not good to say the least. He quite possibly had the worst coach/playcaller in the entire league and pretty bad OLine. I think Frank can do a lot with him. But still... I agree his head is what's worrisome. I understand people not wanting to deal with him and give up valuable assets for him, but yeah... with a huge caveat about him being mentally stable I think it might be worth it.
He's sell tickets/jerseys though . Kids love him

I wouldn't give up anything for the QBs in my "not franchise QB" category.
In my "too young/early to tell" category, by definition, it's probably to early for me to be firm with any of them, but if I absolutely had to choose and put money on some of them I would choose:
Baker Mayfield (my biggest concern with him is attitude, rather than talent, so this would be contingent on him passing whatever meeting/test Brian Decker does with players)
Kyler MurrayARI
Lamar JacksonBAL
Darnold is close too, but I guess at this point I wouldn't give 2 1sts.
In my "borderline" category I wouldn't give up 2 1sts for anyone.
In my "franchise or aging franchise QB" category I would give 2 1sts for
Patrick MahomesKC
Carson WentzPHI
Russell WilsonSEA
Deshaun WatsonHOU
Aaron RodgersGB
Ryan Matt ATL
I wouldn't give 2 1sts for the other aging ones(too close to retiring or falling off or already fallen off). Which leaves these 3:
Matthew StaffordDET
Jimmy GaroppoloSF
Dak PrescottDAL
This is where I said I can argue for them to be included in the borderline category. I would give up something for those, but not 2 1sts I think.
About this coming draft - I would give up 2 firsts for Burrow and for Tua(if I had some guarantees about his health).
So final list:
Patrick MahomesKC
Carson WentzPHI
Russell WilsonSEA
Deshaun WatsonHOU
Aaron RodgersGB
Ryan Matt ATL
------
Baker Mayfield
Kyler MurrayARI
Lamar JacksonBAL
------
Joe Burrow
Tua Tagovailoa
I completely disagree with your way of evaluating "potential franchise QBs" of the young ones and the draftees, though. For example, I might not be willing to give up 2 firsts for Love and Herbert but I absolutely think they have the potential to be franchise QBs if developed well. Hell, I think Love has the highest potential of all of them. Same goes for players like Josh Allen, Daniel Jones, Darnold, etc. from the "too young to tell" category. They might have some risks that I think are not worth investing 2 1sts in, but they also have the talent to become franchise QB if developed and steered well by their coaches.
BAker is a head scrather to me. He has talent, but his headis not there. Maybe working with Reich would change that but no way I give up 2 1st for him.
Tua absolutely intrigues me

Carson Wentz is absolutely a franchise QB. What he was able to do with no receivers and protection this year was nothing short of an act of God. If the Eagles were stupid enough to get rid of him I'd pound the table to sign him. Heck, I'd trade for him and pay a couple of high round picks for him. We'd be getting the better end of that deal...

I listed him as not there yet, mostly because he's missed a lot of games in his short carrier. But I do agree he will eventually (hopefully) get there and I would use 2 1st to get him because of potential.

Of all the NFL QB's or all of the QB's in the draft?
I think if we gave up 2 first round picks for Mahomes the entire NFL world would say that the Chiefs got fleeced. . . And chief's fans would probably burn down arrowhead in a completely understandable rage.
Was referring to the existing NFL players but I was going to include the QB's in the draft also.
So lets say anyone. The top 3-4 are obvious to me at least Mahomes, Jackson, Watson, Wilson. Rogers, but he will be 36 this yr but still playing at a very high level.
Doubt anyone would argue with any of them.
But of any others, including this yrs draft. Who would you give up this yrs and next yrs 1st for? And don't forget the current players come with their salary.
-
Fair enough . good discussion.
Of all the QB's listed which would you give up this yrs 1st and next yrs first for? Lets see how much confidence you have in my "the rest" category being under rated
In good hands to find our next QB?
in Colts Football

Not me . I would not at all be in favor of that
