Not sure about Cleveland's logic here. They didn't want Mayfield around because they thought he was immature and wanted more stability at the position.

They traded for a guy who hasn't played in a long time and brings a lot of baggage.
cleveland gonna cleveland


its pretty obivous

the old saying once your BS outweighs your talent its bye bye

Baker is Andy Dalton 2.0 the stats are eerily similar - except Dalton was more successful

Smart play by the colts. I think Ryan is a solid QB and they have the pieces. But man is the AFC stacked now

Yeesh. The KC offense will take a huge step backward, and Hill will never have the same type of numbers if he goes elsewhere (except maybe GB).

I would try to get into the mix if I were GB. Maybe they can't afford the extension he is after.

Cant wait to see Tua underthrow Tyreke by 40 yards

Tyreke makes Mahomes look better than he is

I agree on both! Especially the Mahomes point across the board, he gets away with so much because coverage is always being drawn away because of Hill's threat of going over the top. Those no look passes he does are going to result in a lot of picks this year with coverage being a lot tighter.

interesting that teams with great QB's are dumping their high-priced WR's

Have any of the QB's who have massive contracts ever won anything in the past 20 years? Like top 5 paid QB's in the league. I know Brady defers $$ to sign other players. I know they usually get their big contracts after winning consistently - or winning a superbowl like Mahomes (won it on a rookie contract).

Maybe Elway back in '98?

I just don't see the point in paying a QB big money... because when you do, you usually don't have enough $$ to pay the rest of your players. It seems like being the Rams and going "all in" for a year is the new thing to do (paying and trading for multiple players) rather than signing a big name QB to a big contract.

I think Cleveland is not going to win anything with that boat anchor of a contract they gave Watson.

The alternative though is cycling through Ryan Fitzpatrick, Jared Goff, Mark Sanchez, Andy Dalton, Nick Foles, Josh McGowen, Blake Bortles, etc and drafting a draft pick that either becomes playable or you waste 2 and a half seasons seeing they are Mitch Tribisky.

The GM also wants to keep their job, and a mediocre to bad QB gets everyone fired.

One of the strangest trades I've seen in a while. Not sure what the Saints are doing... strange to do anything with future picks when their current road map is a mess. I'm not sure how this helps them.

For the Eagles it makes a little more sense, but only if they use the future picks wisely. In the short term they got hosed. No doubt they are hoping the Saints are terrible next year (might happen) and they get a top 5-10 pick next year. Not a terrible idea considering they still aren't sure about their QB, but terrible in the short term.

Eagles receive a 3rd this year and 2nd two years from now to basically defer one of their 1sts to next year?

The only way this makes sense for the Saints, to me at least, is that they are loading up to move up for a QB.

Great move by Philly. Give Hurts one more year to prove himself, if not, now they have 2 #1s to trade up in a better qb class. plus they get 2 extra high picks.

Yea I think the Saints are trying to move up in this draft. I also think Philly is moving their draft assets to next year since it's a better QB class if they're not sold on Hurts by the end of the season. Makes sense for both sides IMO.
