Mostly just rides on the QB. That one “if” works out, we’re in the hunt.

if it’s not good enough then that’s not the answer. Even what we had this past year is good enough for now. I’m pretty confident we can at least replicate that.

But two firsts, a third and a fifth is not a bad deal to go from 8 to 3. Not bad at all.

With all that said, I think I’d prefer Lance to Fields, especially if he’s cheaper to get to. Wilson is my strong preference though, if possible.

Trent Williams would be pricey but possibly available. Orlando Brown Jr. Others we’re not aware of. I’d give up next year’s second for Brown. If we can’t find a long term fix, then get a short term fix for now and try again next year. QB is more important to address than LT and takes longer to develop. If we have to wait til next year for an LT, they’re more likely to be ready day one than a QB

That’s not really that bad of a deal. I’m not sold on fields but I’d be cautiously optimistic. I would expect moving up to 3 to cost more than that. Fields in the first, OG in the second, get a LT via FA or trade, LB in the fourth. Depending on how quick Fields gets ready, we’ll be set

No team has zero chance at the playoffs. That is absolutely a false idea. This division used to have a long run of worst to first. I don’t think we’re necessarily overtaking the Saints next year but I do think we’re a lot closer than many around here wanna admit. Bridgewater was by far the biggest reason we missed out last year. Our defense is getting better. We have a great group of skill players on offense. We get some o-line and a good QB, we’re making a run. But that’s the trick, getting that QB

That’s patently false. We get a good QB and a couple OL we have a very legit shot at the playoffs.

Ew no thanks. Never liked mariota

We absolutely can’t rely on okung staying healthy. I think we could find a way to pay Brown and Moton. If the Saints can spend like they do, we can figure out a way. If it comes down to Brown or Samuel we gotta go with the OL. No way we give up a first though.

I have no clue what it would take to get him. All I know I wouldn’t want to jeopardize getting a QB for him. Otherwise, I’m down for whatever within reason.

We’re kind of agreeing heh. Oher was right around average. Which is worth a third when everything we’ve fielded since Gross was trash. Okung was quite good for those three or four games he was healthy, but we need consistency. But whether Oher would have been worth a third is irrelevant lol. I’d give up a couple thirds for Orlando Brown. It would seem he can play LT decently and he’s still young. Could have us at least decent at LT for a while

Eh, minus the concussion issues being a 6/10 LT is worth a couple thirds I’d say

When in Tampa, do as Tampans do.

He did play LT almost all year this year.

Yea, hell no to a first. This years and next years third and I’d be all for it, if he can be at least as decent as Oher was for us.

Eh. Whatever it takes I guess. I’m not enamored with Lance at all, but I’d be on board if this happened.

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/02/10/report-orlando-brown-jr-wants-to-be-traded/ I don’t know much about him other than the obvious lineage and he was supposed to be pretty good from what I heard that draft season. First or second rounder right? Wonder what it would cost, cuz we could definitely give him the chance to play LT like he wants heh

Absolutely. Two 1s two 3s and a 4 seems steep but I’d be ok with it for Wilson. Not for any other QB not named Lawrence though.

Wtf Derek carr is a no, but Gardner minschew and jalen hurts are #1 and 2?! They out their gd mind

I noticed the same thing. The line judge lady was the one that correctly called that 4th down run on the goal line stop. My internal theory is she wasn’t down with the bias toward the Bradyneers because of what her being there meant in the bigger picture. Didn’t want to give anyone ammunition to say anything disparaging about a woman officiating. Whether that’s true, or it’s a simple matter of she was the only competent one there and the rest of the officials sucked, good on her.

I like the way this Chad Reuter guy thinks!

If we don’t get Watson, I sure as hell hope so. Just hope it’s not for fields. If we’re trading up we gotta go for Wilson.

At least buying the mercenaries is within the scope of the rules. The way the game was officiated was not. How many yards did non mercenary Bucs get? Wasn’t many. Evans had a catch or two, Brate had a couple, Jones had about 100 yards I think. The rest was Brady, Gronk and Fournette. Shortcut way, far less respectable, but at least fair.
