Mr. Scot

Meanwhile, PFF is now trying to tie us to Dak Prescott.

This probably won't go over well either, but it is something I thought of... If we were to draft Jones, whether it be at number 8 or after trading down, you could very well be looking at at least a two year commitment to him. First year, he may not start at all or may only start a limited number of games. You wouldn't get a full read on him as a starter until next season. And yeah, that could mean another year of Teddy Bridgewater sitting at the top of the depth chart. I hope everyone feels very encouraged

I've never heard of this Igo guy. Does he know anything?

Tom Pelissero said some of the other teams he talked to really believe it. The Rapoport clip above doesn't exactly paint an encouraging picture either.

To be fair, Weinke was about 40 years old. But yeah, there have been a fair number of national championship quarterbacks that haven't exactly been draft darlings.

I was actually gonna ask that too

People keep attributing rational thought processes to the Texans. Always makes me feel like asking "Have you heard about this team?"

Yeah. That's a classic double take. "They're willing to trade a young first round player for that little compensation? Great!" "Wait a minute... Why?"

Regarding his preferred destinations... Seriously, the Bears?!

I don't know that you do. But to make the trade happen, you have to find a way for the owner to not be a stubborn, vindictive, egotistical a--hole. I question whether that can be accomplished.

I like those with jelly.

I think it's possible he's traded. I definitely don't think it's guaranteed.

I would have said Buts. (or maybe As)

I'm not entirely convinced that's on the 'will do" list

You want to stay that way.

Trust me when I tell you that you might regret saying that

Back when I was a member of management, I sat through a seminar with a labor lawyer talking about organized labor relations. I don't really want to be in management again.

No argument on that, especially since Goodell took over.

Nah. @kungfoodudeunderstands.

Have you heard of the Appaloosa management model?

You still have to account for McNair though. For all we know, Caserio might have a perfectly reasonable take on things. But if McNair doesn't, here we stay.

I think there's probably a fair amount of crossover between "The Patriot Way" and "Stockholm Syndrome". Looks like it might start falling apart with Brady gone though.

"What the Texans should do" and "What the Texans will do" are two separate lists that probably don't have much of anything in the way of common items between them.

They were winning. Nobody had nay leverage. The Texans have no such leverage, but that doesn't necessarily stop them from acting like they do.

That probably helps explain this year's Cleveland Browns.
