Having CMC back isn't going to suddenly make Bridgewater better at the deep ball, or more willing to take shots downfield. Our offense will be limited until such time as we upgrade the QB position.

You'll lose that bet.

Field Yates is pretty plugged in as far being an NFL insider. I wonder what he knows.

Sorry about that. I don't seem to have an edit button to fix it, but the article is being discussed in its own thread at this point.

NFL insider notes: Don't underestimate David Tepper and the Panthers in the Deshaun Watson sweepstakes https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2021-nfl-mock-draft-dolphins-get-tua-tagovailoa-a-major-weapon-jets-secure-a-qb-and-rb-in-round-1/ It's LaCanfora, so take with generous portions of salt.

I think we did. His replacement's name is Derrick Brown.

This pass went 30 yards on a rope and hit his receiver in the facemask before being dropped. That kind of otherworldly athleticism translates to 32 of 32 teams.

AB is former agent and Packer's front office employee Andrew Brandt.

It's getting mighty late in the QB bar when Marcus Mariotta starts looking good to you.

They had a guy on CBS Sports Radio saying that part of the trade is Foles going back to Philly.

The College Football National Championship doesn't matter? I'm sorry, I'm going to have to disagree with you.

I sincerely hope that person is no longer employed by the Panthers.

I think our WR corps is a little better now than when we lost Ginn. Curtis is simply a luxury we can't afford. He's a WR3 and will lose targets with the return of CMC. Loved watching him, but we need to let someone else pay him to be a WR2 and make good use of the comp pick.

I've been calling him Fitbit.

Either the terms McClain is throwing out are what he's been told by his sources in the Texans organization, or he's speculating.

McClain also gone from "The Texans are not trading Watson" to "if the Texans were to trade Watson". He's putting out what the Texans want put out. The Texans will do everything they can to repair the relationship and try to keep Watson. If they determine they can't, they'll take the best deal they can get which may end up being less than what they are leaking through McClain right now.

We'll call that your opening position. Let's haggle.

I wouldn't like trading Burns, but I'm not letting an edge rusher stop me from securing the services of an All Pro caliber QB for the next ten years.

Be really good at picking in rounds 2 through 7.

I really like this as a way to frame QB discussions. There's little argument that Teddy is a Trailer, and one of the big concerns about Mac Jones is that he's going to be a Trailer as well. Fans clamor for Watson because he's one of the very few Trucks on the league.
