Let you guys tell it Mahomes is the only qb worth trading for.

Here’s the full trade:
Packers send: QB Aaron Rodgers (to 49ers), 30th overall pick, QB Jordan Love (to Texans)
Texans acquire: Jordan Love, 12th overall pick in 2021, 30th overall pick in 2021, 2022 first-round pick
Patriots acquire: Jimmy Garoppolo
The obvious winner of this trade would be Green Bay, who would be acquiring a 25-year-old superstar quarterback in Deshaun Watson, while the Texans would receive multiple picks and a potential franchise quarterback in Jordan Love.
The 49ers team is set up to win now and would give Rodgers a great chance to reach the Super Bowl.
Even with Jimmy G, the Patriots wouldn’t be looked at as competing for much of anything for quite some time.

You can't take a team like the Jets where the cupboard is bare and put Watson in the middle of a 2 win team with little draft capital in the coming years. That's not a recipe for success and he and his agent ought to push for someplace else.
Teams like Miami and NYJ don't need to. They can package in a pick or Tua or darnold. That's a wash because that would have otherwise been used on a qb. That gets you most of the way there. Houston gets a qb and they get cap relief. You'd still have to give up some picks but not nearly as many as another team who lacks that trade chip. [Reply]
No he doesn't, have you seen his numbers this year? Or the last 3 for that matter. Have you ever heard of Bill O'Brian? He's not a very good coach.
There's only 1 Mahomes but there's many young QBs that can ball out. Tell you what: name me another QB besides Mahomes that you would take if you had to pick? Under the age of 27. [Reply]

I don't give a shit about his numbers. You realize that right? [Reply]

Do you disagree?
I agree. That said there's only one Mahomes and as much as we'd all like the rest of the NFL to just cancel games and hand Clark and Andy the title every year in September. I think they're gonna keep playing. If so, other teams will need QBs as well.
Watson is the 2nd best young QB in the league currently. [Reply]

Allen had a major growth year, but he's still leaps and bounds behind Pat. Watson is below Allen and above Lamar at this point probably. Herbert looks promising.
I'd be very disappointed with any of those guys however knowing Pat exists. It's the MJ syndrome. No matter how good Reggie Miller and the Pacers around him got, they weren't winning over a healthy Jordan. [Reply]

Herbert I'll give you if he does it another year. I don't think he'll as good next season.
Josh Allen is a fraud. He has no heart and couldn't read our blitzes whatsoever last week. He damn near fumbled the ball and game away vs the Colts- and the Ravens lol.. That team is driven by Diggs.
Allen was trash his rookie year too. Watson took his team to 10 win season and whipped Allen's ass in the playoffs-a game where clowned 3(!!!!!) Texan defenders to convert a 3rd down. Do you not remember this? Allen threw the ****ing ball back and almost threw a pick.
This year was whatever. Texans were stuck with BoB.
Allen doesn't do 1 single thing better Watson....not a single thing. [Reply]
