Cutler Formally Requests Trade

It's shitty to see situations go so sour like that so quick. I must admit, I was talking major poo about Cutler at the Bronco's game this season, but if he was putting on a Panther's jersey every Sunday, I would have no problem with it.

I love Jake, but Cutler's someone we could give the keys to the team to for years to come.

Has to be a starting QB so it would need to be Jake and Peppers or they might go for Moore and Peppers.

IF we were to make a trade like that we would have to include Jake I would imagine. I think it might would split the team if we were to trade for Cutler and still have Jake on the team.

give em Jake and Peppers for Cutler and a defensive player

Cutler and Moss for Peppers and Jake. They are switching to 3-4 defense and Moss would struggle under that system. By that trade at least we would have another DE with alot of athletic potential.

But this will not happen. Probably not anyways. Im still on the Moore train.

even if he were someone who would be a good fit for this team and would somehow become mature and not seen as a immature punk.....

1) we have nothing that they would want (they are not going to give him up without somehow being able to get a QB of like long term value (we have no one on this roster who fits the bill and no draft picks to help them toward that end)

2) we can't trade peppers

3) they are under no obligation to trade him

4) acquiring would be far too expensive (how much would we have to give up to get him?)

oh yeah....

Wow what a messed up situation...

You go from having an up and coming young pro bowl Quaterback, to who the hell know's what. Whoever will replace him won't be half as good, at least not this year.

I'd hate to be a bronco fan right now. To see your franchise Qb leave over something so silly, with no idea of an replacement. Sucks, just sucks

McDaniels just isn't going to let his franchise quarterback leave without finding a decent quarterback to replace him.

Since he was willing to get rid of Cutler for Cassel, I'm not so sure he actually cares that much about having a decent quarterback.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
