This only implies that he isn't sure what the offer was.

I am sure there are many options for us. There are things I don't know about what's going on but to imply that Reich wouldn't like Carr to play for him just doesn't make sense. You don't go after a QB two or three times just because. There is a reason he wanted him.

If you are the Head Coach of a team and three times you inquire about a QB. There is something about him that he likes. You don't have to be a genius to read between the lines.

You asked for an article and now you don't believe it. LAME I don't see anywhere where the author doubts it. The fact remains the Colts wanted Carr several times. Get over it. You're not the only one that follows what's going on.

Thanks, I posted an article in another thread that said this but I couldn't find it. @mrcompletely11 There you go.

Reich tried several times to get him in Indy. Look it up.

My major issue with Brady was, he had no experience with in-game adjustments. Once a DC figured out his game plan Brady did nothing to counter. At LSU they were a great team and rarely played from behind so the play callng was easy. When he came to the NFL things were different and he was lost. I also believe the Rhule time frame will be a black eye for him for several years. But eventually with some real NFL experience he might end up being a pretty decent OC. I don't believe his window is closed just yet.

Reich really likes Carr. I don't believe it is because of his spiritual beliefs either. IMO, Reich thinks he can get more out of Carr than anybody can. If he were to come here, I would bet, though I am not a betting man, Carr will have Career numbers.

That is one thing I hope we get in our QB. A QB with that kind of fire. Jake wasn't the most gifted but his competitive spirit was amazing. Hiring Hall is a great move. Just his experiences in the game will make a huge difference when coaching a young player. He'll be a true addition by teaching technique only anything else beyond that is a bonus.

I can see why Baltimore would use this approach.. Let another team negotiate the deal and than match it.

We'll just have to agree to disagree because any QB that is being removed for another QB is not worth a first round pick and definitely not a top 10 pick.

We're playing with hypotheticals. So hypothetically you're Chicago and you've decided you want a QB with the first choice. You draft #1 QB. All any team has to do is wait until the draft is over and trade maybe one or two #2. Once you draft your future QB the incumbent is now very less valued. That's like us trading #1 for Darnold a couple of years ago. (thank god we didn't, 2nd round was too much) Darnold had a lot of Potential but sucked. We were smart not to give them anything worthy of a 1st rounder. I get you think Fields is going to be great but IF (going with the topic) Chicago drafts a QB his value plummets. Offering a first round pick is stupid.

I would have liked to address Edge sooner but the value wasn't there. I am a proponent of continually building the O-line. Most importantly Stroud fell to our lap without trading up.

I agree with you that Chicago isn't drafting a QB. The topic refers to trading for Fields which would say they are beyond him. Just trying to stick with the topic.

I see it the other way. If Chicago wants one of these QBs in this draft, they have given up on Fields. If you are 2 years removed from drafting ANY player in round one and ready to move on. He's considered a Bust to that franchise. It's no different than Wilson in NYJ. He showed flashes but many think the Jets are after Rodgers and ready to move on from Wilson.

He's a talent but he is asking way too much. I don't think any team can absorb the money he wants and still build a quality team. He's more about "SHOW ME THE MONEY" than winning a Super Bowl.

I have never really been a fan of this draft class. I will admit that Stroud probably has the best chance to succeed, especially with Reich but I like the Carr option best. Reich sees something in Carr. It's pretty well-known Reich tried to get Carr in Indy several times. Signing Carr would give us a chance to bolster the WR Corp with the best WR in the class. (Most teams ahead of us are looking QB or Defense) and use our two 2nd round picks BPA. Or, if available, draft one of the top 4 rookies if one were to fall to #9. The first option would give Reich and Co. the opportunity to see what Corral can do as a backup to Carr. If we go for the 2nd option than we would have two young QBs to battle it out to back up Carr. If by some chance Carr, rookie and Corral fail than we go all in to trade up in 2024 for the Best QB in the draft.

If Fields were to become available than it is saying the Bears made a mistake choosing him and are trying to squeeze a pick out of him. NO NO NO NO

It wasn't necessarily his play calling it was the fact that he couldn't make in game adjustments. Don't want him as an OC but would let him as an understudy or assist OC.

13 Days until the combine. Several players will move up and down on draft boards by showing off in their tights.

Greg could walk circles around Brady. Brady might know the game very well but you have to have a personality to be a color man. I just don't see it. Sadly, they'll lose a good one for a boring one.

No matter how many times you say it, doesn't make you right. If we draft a QB at #9 that QB is going to have a long road before he starts. Corral is going to get an equal look regardless of who and when we draft a QB.

We just might. If Reich sees a QB fall that has traits he thinks he can develop, I'd be on the bandwagon. Wouldn't be the first time a low round pick turned out to be something special.

I'll give you a true story about another QB that wasn't given an opportunity to shine and ended up being one of the greatest QBs ever to play the game. There was a QB was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 9th round. He was given little opportunity to shine and was cut before the season started. As Rhule treated Corral the same was done by a coach named Walt Kiesling. He gave this young man no reps and eventually was cut. The QBs name was Johnny Unitas. While I am not implying that Corral is the next Johnny Unitas the story hasn't been told on Corral yet and to blow him off as a nobody is wrong. I think we all should give the kid a chance to prove himself before someone who knows something takes him and turns him into a star. John Unitas, shunned by the Pittsburgh Steelers, is the mover in the surprising strength of Baltimore. The rifle-armed kid from the steel country is the most effective passer in the NFL through the first four games - Sports Illustrated Vault | SI.com

You know I get the hatred for the guy or dislike or whatever it is you think you see. And you're right a True NFL QB can shine no matter the circumstances providing he gets true opportunities to practice with real NFL players. It's well documented that Rhule gave Corral about 5 minutes at the end of practice to play. Give or take that's about 3 or 4 plays, maybe 5. Are you going to sit here and tell me that all camp and preseason Corral got real opportunities? How many posters agreed that Rhule treated Corral like a redshirt freshman. You know if Corral had been given legitimate Reps in practice than I would at least see your point However, to sit here and make it sound like he had legitimate reps in camp and preseason is just not true. You know it and so do I. I'm with @rippadonn on this one. I think Corral with proper coaching is going to surprise a lot of people. He has things that make me believe he is going to be special.
