  1. Not ten to fifteen years worth. At least when we were discussing Watson, you were talking about a young, long-term solution. Granted that went to hell, but at least there was some logic to it. With Rodgers, you're talking about a rebuilding team giving up assets significant enough to make the rebuild a lot harder in exchange for a guy that's only going to be around for maybe five years if you're lucky. Not on board at all...
  2. Is there such thing as a triple entendre? (gonna regret asking that, aren't I?)
  3. Couple of things here... 1) History: Verge has correctly predicted things in the past. That includes stuff that wasn't common knowledge or already out there in the Twitterverse. 2) Corroboration: That tweet from Jonathan Jones just a few pages back? Yeah, Verge had that info hours ago (actually days ago if you wanna get technical). Is Verge always right? No, but show me someone who is. Even established insiders like Rapoport and Schefter wind up with wrong info because that's just the nature of the beast. Things happen that make teams change their minds. Sometimes nothing happens but a team changes their mind anyway. And of course, there's the steady flow of bullsh-t from teams trying to throw other teams off their trail. Bottom Line: As with anyone who has or claims to have inside sources, it's an individual choice whether to trust them or not. For others, do what you think best. Me? I choose to trust Verge.
  4. Jones does fit their system. Which, yes, also means he fits ours.
  5. Generic snark or equating Drew Lock with an STD? (I'm pretty sure it's the former but I had enough doubt to ask)
  6. Jonathan Jones replying to a Panthers fan...
  7. Because there are rumors they might not. It's Draft Day, so bullsh-t is everywhere, but sometimes rumors turn out to be true.
  8. Might help grease the wheels a lot if their new head coach is an old colleague/friend. (which...he is) They might wanna take a particular player with them, and be willing to negotiate around it.
  9. A new backup quarterback. From Albert Breer... One veteran quarterback who could be moved this weekend: Denver third-year man Drew Lock. If the Broncos land Justin Fields or Trey Lance (which I think is a possibility), there’s a strong perception that Lock will be on the block starting Friday. One potential destination I’ve heard for Lock is Minnesota, a team that could use an affordable backup with upside. Carolina was one team I heard could be in the mix, but that’d be if they don’t draft one Thursday night (and I think they could). SI.com: Last minute Draft day news and rumors End result would be us essentially swapping backups...
  10. I mean I'd ultimately get on board, but there might be a lot of swearing before it happens
  11. Sewell and Jones both fall to us, we take Jones?
  12. Never heard of it honestly, but it sounds hilarious
  13. You have the Lions handing a division rival the chance to draft a quarterback?
  14. By trading with an old friend who's now the head coach of a team with, say, the #7 pick perhaps.
  15. Demovsky is a very reliable source.
  16. Don't forget they can also trade players, like a good receiver for example.
  17. Remember who Dan Campbell used to work for? That could turn out to be a factor. (connections frequently do)
  18. To be fair, that arguably has as much or more to do with the present day Packers as it does present day Rodgers. Specifically, the present day Packers who used their first round pick on Jordan Love.
  19. If I recall correctly, you said yesterday you didn't think that "some" necessarily included Fitterer and/or Rhule.
  20. As long as it's somebody other than Sewell I'm fine with it, especially if it helps him fall to us. If they took Sewell though...
