Maybe not that close “What’s accurate is — and this is an incredible thing by [the Lions] — I asked to go to a team that was ready to win a championship,” Stafford said. “And, you know, there were a few teams on that list. There were a few teams that were not on that list. And they were respectful of that and understood completely. I had thoughts and reasons for each one of them.”

That’s why the NBA is doing much better than the NFL

Fair point, but I feel like the balance has been skewed against the players for so long it may take a bit of a pendulum swing the other way to eventually achieve the happy medium.

With an increasing number of players forcing their way out of teams or demanding more input in personnel decisions, a real power shift seems to be happening that echoes what happened in NBA. I personally don't see it as a bad thing. Most NFL GMs are incompetent and get too much credit for the work they do to manage personnel. Franchise QBs like Deshaun Watson, Russell Wilson should have more input into head coaching and personnel hires because they've staked their long term future with the team. I think it will lead to more exciting trades and potentially faster rebuilds.

Houston is going to be the worst team in the league for years to come

hard pass

Melo is well on track to be the NBA rookie of the year. Here is where he currently stands He currently leads all NBA rookies for total points, rebounds, assists, steals, double-doubles, triple-doubles and player efficiency rating (source: ESPN).

This says more about poor scouting and evaluation than about reaching. If you believe your evaluation is correct and that player will not be available at your draft position, then it's not reaching. It's only reaching if they suck or they would have dropped anyway

First Things First (@FTFonFS1) Tweeted: "The Eagles can probably get a single 2nd round pick for Carson Wentz. If someone offers them a 1st, they need to say yes & hang up. The idea that they are getting what you got for Jalen Ramsey for Carson Wentz is lunacy & will never happen." — @getnickwright https://t.co/4XWfn6gd67

The market dictates what he's worth. There's going to be a feeding frenzy on QBs in this draft and sometimes you just need to overpay to get your man. He is #2 on my list after Lawrence, but it all depends on what Rhule and Fit think.

Considering he never had elite QBs throwing to him most of his career should be taken into account. He should be a fist ballot HOF-er

Anyone that thinks Lance will be there at #8 is delusional. He has the most upside of any QB outside of Lawrence. We'll need to at least trade up to #5.

Not for Wilson

So then if they didn’t draft a WR, that would be his problem, or having a defense that can stop anyone. He’s just a whiny little bitch. This has nothing to do with Cam, we’re talking about the situation in Seattle.

So Russell wants a quality line but wouldn't take a team friendly deal. You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Those guys are terrible anyway.

It may seem like Teddy Bridgewater’s days in Carolina are numbered but Wentz is not the quarterback to bring into the fold. He has regressed over the last couple of years to the point where he was benched for rookie Jalen Hurts. Trading for a guy that is prone to turning the ball over has an absurd contract, and got benched for a rookie is exactly the type of quarterback Carolina needs to stay far away from regardless of what the Eagles want in return. https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/gm-report/panthers-should-avoid-getting-involved-in-carson-wentz-trade-talks

How ironic! Nick Foles was the superbowl MVP and was the main reason for their success in the playoffs. Wentz has never lived up to the hype since then.

Fugin Hurney

They don’t see one falling to us. I would rather they trade up to 3 or 5

Oh man that sucks. Prayers for him

If we get Wentz I am going to lose it

You mean “regression”?

Not just injuries. Dude developed a serious case of the Yips. He may never be the same again. I would only consider signing for a vet minimum. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yips

Good post. Trey Lance reminds me if Mahomes in every way. God, I hooe we draft him.
