Rodgers isn't going to sign an extension with them if they have to cut all of their good players in order to keep him, especially since Devante Adams is already a goner :-)

Yeah, Rodgers is solid, but I wouldn't trade for him - not at his age. I would target Wilson... if you're going to send a ton of picks, at least get 4 years younger at the position. Barring what might be in the draft, there are literally no FA QBs hitting the market next year. [Reply]

I think Denver suits his personality more, but the coach is......iffy.
New Orleans had a sawed-off QB for a long time and did well. Sean Payton is worlds better than Denver's coaching.
There's no doubt that Denver has to bring in an offensive minded HC and a strong staff to lure a QB like Wilson. I know 2022 is a potential out year for him and his contract, but not sure how all that really works.
Either way, they need to make a strong push to get him. I don't see another viable option in FA or Trade. [Reply]

:-) I know. Was funny as hell to read. It went from, "Wait till June 1" to, "He'll be here before the trade deadline" to "He isn't coming until "NEXT YEAR." [Reply]

Aside from injuries, how different are Tua and Mac Jones in terms of effectiveness and how they play? Everyone seems to love Mac, but Tua has been a fairly similar player and has only started 17 games or so.

Really hope kid can stay healthy.
The only real difference between them is where they play. And for Jones, that makes ALL the difference. If he played in the AFCN, they'd be talking about him being a game manager with a strong running game. [Reply]

The Giants currently have 2 top 10 picks. They’re simply going to be very difficult to outbid if the interest is mutual.
Oh wow.
Just wait until Elway has a few double scotch's and offers himself in the trade! [Reply]
In all honesty as a QB I would want to play in a dome or the decent weather Denver generally has.
The Giant's weather is kind of poor. Wilson has a nice arm, but does he have the arm to cut through that crap?
But, I would avoid Denver's ownership like the plague. They need to get that shit wrapped up or it will be near impossible to proceed with any solidarity. [Reply]

You trying to talk us into this absolute dream, or yourself? Cuz we ain’t buying it! [Reply]
